OBrienftes and laborites held in Dublin
under the craftsmanship of the lord
mayor yesterday, unanimously passed
a resolution declaring their determine

ton was similar to the one adopted by
the Irish bishops at Maynooth earlier in
the day. The conference then ad-
journed until today.

forced on Ireland and that it was an

Irish people have the right to resist by
all means consonant with the law Of
God" The Irish clergy was directed to
announce days for receiving contribu-
tions of money. Parish meetings will
be held next Sunday to gain adherents
