IRELAND FEARS

DUBLIN, Nov. 23.-Armed war
fare between Ireland and Great
Britain within the next six months
is seen as a strong possibility by
some leaders Of the Free State left
wing Republicans.
The central organization, there
fore, is straining itself to prepare
for hoStilities 1t is confident that
the Republican movement will be
victorious, and that Ireland, before
long, will be united nation under
its own, independent government.
Headquarters for the revolution
airy movement is on the top floor
Of an old, soot-darkened building
in st. Andrews street, Dublin.
The ancient walls of the place are
covered with posters, photographs,
and other mementos Of the Easter
rebellion.
Recruits Constantly Drill
Most of the Irish republican
army council members. were in
prison last year. These included
Frank Ryan, editor of the Repuo-
lie; George Gilmore, charged with
managing one of the army's largest
arms and ammunition caches, and
Michael Price, one of the highest
commanding officers of the repub-
lican army.
Price has increased the army's
strength from 10000 men to more
than thirty thousand. This increase
was made possible by President Ea-
mon De Valeras defeat of the Cos
grave regime and subsequent release
of important army leaders from
prison.
Il regret to say" Price declared,
that I have been unable to re-
equip the recruits fully so far, but
they constantly are drilling. The
army is stronger than it was in
1916. We believe Britain will not
give up Ireland without fight, and
we are ready to fight as nation.
Violence as Last Resort

store the republic. We now are
confronted with revolutionary
situation that demands revolution
airy measures. De Valera will not
fail u.s.
I'VE have definite information, I"
one of the council members said,
that Great Britain, after failing to
collect sufficient punitive duties to
cover the land annuities which De
Valera has withheld, is planning
before spring to seize the customs
offices at Irish ports and levy du-
ties on goods brought to Ireland
from all over the world.
"They did that to China once,
and they would not hesitate to do
it again when they find their eco
nomic war has failed. For that mo-
ment we hold ouselves ready"
