DE VALERA ADDRESS. ADOPTED BY THE
 HANNA FAIL

Dublin. October 27-(UP)
 The convention of the Fisnna Fail party adopted Eamonn De Valera's presiden- tia1 address today as its policy. De Valera said the first act ot a Fianna Fail government would be to remove the oath of alle- glance to King George V from the constitution.
 If Britain insisted on enforc- ing the terms of the 1922 treaty. he said. the party's at- titude would be one of non- cooperation. A Fianna Fail government would aim to assim. Hate the office of governor general into that of the president of a republic. The economic program would include the avoidance of industrial coneen- tration such as is found in fac tory towns of England and the United States.
