RETIcENcE BEST POLICY
DECISION IN DUBLIN
Dublin. July 5.-(By the Associated
Press in view of the Importance
and delicacy of the situation, those
concerned with the peace movement
have determined that reticence is the
best policy. Consequently aside from
the fact that Jan c. Stnuts. the South
African premier, has arrived and held
private conversations with certain
Irish leaders, there is virtually nothing
known by the general public as to how
matters are progressing.
Activities Are Slackened.
Everybody is talking peace, and ru-
mors that truce is about to begin
are current everywhere, but neither
side has issued any statement. There
is an evident slackening of the govern
ment's repressive activities in some
directions while it is remarked that
there has been no ambushing of crown
forces in Dublin and the immediate
neighborhood for some days. AS re-
CARDS the continuance of tragedies in
the country districts. it is contended
these districts often are not in direct
touch with Slim Fein headquarters.
