The iaU all Gazette has plan by which

that john OLeary Feniam has been IN direct
communication with. Lord Spencer and the Chief
Secretary. The writer says that VLeary was
specially summoned TO London, that his views were
asked, the government policy submitted to HIM In
outline. and tnat he accepted it IN beha of his or
ganlzaton. The story is generally regarded as a
campaign lie.
