seems to be true, since the beginning
Of Ireland's history as we'll as today,
I suppose, there were and are those
who believed that the sword was the
only weapon with which to fight and
fight to advantage, and there were

suasion was the only effective means
of getting justice and here is where
the contradiction comes in. Moral
suasionists will join and heartily with
those Of revolutionary tendencies in
honoring the memories of such Irish
patriots as Wolfe Tone, Emmet, AL
len, Larkin and O'Brien, ETC., while
most Of the peacefully inclined would
be hard put to remember the date of
the birth or the death of Daniel O'Con-
nell, the man who made such a bril-
liant record in the British House of
Commons in his fight for Catholic
emancipation. If, as some claim, the
