SHUTS, "I don't consi-er one single

Gen. Smuts. in the course of his letter
said:

internal friction and discordance that
the result may well be a failure once

.'The humble acceptance OF facts is
often the only way of finally overcom-

South Africa, where ultimate unity was
only realized through several stages and
the process of years. and where the re-
public as an ideal for which we made
unheard of sacrifices had ultimately 20

NV belief is that ireland is travelling
the same painful road as South Africa.
and. with wisdom and moderation in
leadership, is destined to achieve no less
success.
"You say the Republic is the true ex-
preston of national self-determination

it means your final and irreparable sew

has made you the offer of another form
OF freedom, OF dominion status. which is
working with complete success in all
parts of the British league.
What is good enough for these ma

Ireland, too. For Irishmen to say to the
world that they cannot be satisfied with
the status OF the great British Dominions
