Of the Clogheen Board of Guardians:
THAT the invidious position in which
the unpurchased tenants in this Union
are placed owing to the action of the
landlords in not selling on favorable
terms is causing general discomfort,
as they are paying IS per cent higher

purchased tenants. We, therefore,
call on the Government to bring in

enable the unpurchased tenants to
buy, and that a compulsory clause
should be inserted therein"
