PAY FOR THE WAR.
Have you ever seen a copy of the written orders sent by Winston Churchill to the Provisional Government two days before the attack on the Four Courts ?
Don't you think you have a right to know what Churchill's orders were ?
If England ordered the war don't you think England ought to pay for it ?

The Entire English Press

You must be right.
Irish history records that

On the Proper Shoulders
"If I have ever done a wise thing in my life I bank on this as the wisest."
—President Cosgrave.
In view of the repeated and determined attempts to separate the Provisional Government with the ENTIRE responsibility for the war, a perusal of the following should be instructive.
Printed on Irish Paper by THE WOODGRANGE PRESS, LTD. (WARD'S) FOREST GATE, E.7.
Extracts from the Official Report of Proceedings in the English House of Commons.
(Hansard, June 26th, 1922. Vol. 155. No. 84.)
WHAT IT MEANT
The Irish people voted for Peace, but peace in Ireland is not our policy.
The Union of Hearts is a great blessing.
Firm Government is still the real solution.
England is satisfied with the Constitution, the whole Constitution and nothing but the Constitution.
MR. WINSTON CHURCHILL.
Irish Nation as expressed unmistakably at this election, I would sum it up as follows:—"You have given us our freedom; we wish to give you our friendship. You will help us towards a United Empire." That, I believe, is the true reading of the Irish nation along which we are marching, and along which we are going to march. Do not let us be drawn from it; do not let us bring confusion the wishes of the great masses on both sides of the Channel. I wish I could end here but I cannot. I should not be dealing honestly and fully with this subject if I left in the minds of the House the impression that all that is required is patience and composure. No, sir. Firmness is needed. Firmness is needed in the interests of peace as much as patience. The Constitution which we have seen, which has been published, satisfactorily conforms to the Treaty. It has now to be passed through the new Irish Parliament. There is no room for the slightest diminution of the Imperial and Constitutional safeguards and stipulations which it contains. That is not
WHAT IT MEANT
"Murderers" must be hunted down not merely cried down.
Collins has said the Pact is more important than the Treaty, because it ensures peace. He must tear up the Republican institutions utterly—the Courts, the Cabinet, and the Dail itself.
Submit or we will crush or starve you.
England is at the end of her patience. She can no longer wait for her pound of Republican flesh.
The Republicans are the common enemy.
all. Mere paper affirmations, however important, unaccompanied by any effective effort to bring them into action, will not be sufficient. Mere denunciations of murder, however heartfelt, unaccompanied by the apprehension of a single murderer, cannot be accepted. The keeping in being within the Irish Free State, by an elaborate process of duality, merging upon duplicity, the whole apparatus of a Republican Government, will not be in accordance with the will of the Irish people, with the stipulations of the Treaty or with the maintenance of good relations between the two countries.
The resources at the disposal of H.M. Government are various and powerful. There are military, economic and financial sanctions—to use a word with which we frequently meet in Continental affairs—there are sanctions of these kinds which are available, and which are formidable. They have been very closely studied, and the more closely they are studied, the more clearly it is seen that these measures will be increasingly effective in proportion as the Irish Government and State become fully and more solidly organised. His Majesty's Government do not find that after this election has clearly shown what are the wishes of the Irish people we can continue to tolerate many gross lapses from the spirit of the Treaty, and improprieties and irregularities in its execution with which we have put up and in which we have acquiesced, during the last six months...
The presence in Dublin, in violent occupancy of the Four Courts, of a band of men styling themselves of the Head-

quarters of the Republican Executive, is a gross breach and defance of the Treaty...
The time has come when it is not unfair, not premature and not impatient for us, to make this strengthened Irish Government and the new Irish Parliament, a request in express terms, that this sort of thing must come to an end. If it does not come to an end, either from weakness, from want of courage, or from some other brought to an end, the reasons, it is not better than creditable reasons, some of which are conditional on the Treaty, that we shall be formally violated, that we shall be no steps to legalise or to carry out its further stages, and that we shall resume full liberty of action in any direction that may be proper to safeguard the interests and the rights that are entrusted to our care...
COLONEL GRETTON
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he had received information of the kidnapping of David Pollock, son of Sergeant-Major Pollock...
MR. CHURCHILL
The reply to the first of the question is in the affirmative. Representations have been made to the Provisional Government to secure Pollock's release, and I am hoping to may be released to-day or to-morrow.
MR. PENNY FATHER.
The right honourable Government say how it is that the Provisional Government

ment's efforts in these matters are so ineffective?
MR. CHURCHILL.
We shall see to-day or to-morrow whether they are or not.
MR. RONALD MCNEILL.
May I ask the right honourable gentleman whether in his mind he has fixed any period at which his patience will break down?
MR. CHURCHILL.
I have certain fixed in my mind certain tests both of circumstances and of time, which would determine the moment when a change of policy is necessary.
MR. LLOYD GEORGE.
Young men seizing the Courts of Justice in their Capital, near their centre of government, where they have an organised force and they permit them to run a sort of sham government there in the name of the Republic week after week. That is quite unjustifiable... and without using any language of menace, it is essential that that should be brought to an end, and brought to an end quickly... We have communicated our views to the Provisional Government upon this matter.
MR. LYLE SAMUEL.
Are you giving them a limit?
MR. LLOYD GEORGE.
I do not want at the present moment to give any details of the communications

The ultimatum must be kept secret so that the P.G. can pretend they acted on their own initiative.
We require merely four simple fundamentals, namely:—

Ireland a Vassal,
Ireland partitioned,
Ireland well-behaved.

The Irish Parliament meets on Saturday. This is the first thing they will take into their consideration... I do not wish

The Most Rev. Dr. Fogarty says:
“We recall the history of Joan of Arc. She did her work for France and disappeared almost in a day, burned to death by some of her own countrymen.”
Joan of Arc was, at England's bidding, sentenced by Catholic Bishops to be burned at the stake because she fought for the freedom of her country.
She was denounced as a heretic because English domination of her country, which was good enough for the Bishops, was not good enough for her.
