CORK, Ireland. Jan. % Cby maiD -
Four radical steps which will be TAX

Establish Sim Fein courts.
Set up Sim Fein postofhces In
opposition to the British government
wherever possible.
The republicans claim the whole
administration will be under way

farmers to refuse to pay annuities is
based upon the idea that Il will be
impossible for the British govern
