PROHIBITION FACTOR IN COMING IRISH ELECTIONS By Chas. McCann, (United Press Staff Correspondent) Dublin.—(By Mail)—Prohibition js the issue which is forcing Sinn Feiners and Irish Nationalists in the North of Ireland to get together on common ground and probably ulti- mately will cause them to sit in the Ulster -parliament. While the South of Ireland, solid- 1y Sinn' Fein, has repeatedly rejected Lloyd George’s dual parliament scheme, the Irish Nationalists and Sinn Feiners in the six counties have LOOK WHAT A DOLLAR WILL DO SATURDAY AT OUR CLOSING QUT SALE WE MUST VACATE 12 DIFFERENT ITEMS FOR $1.00 been.unsble to decide upon a policy. Within the past few days, however, thp leaders of these two wings of the Irish Catholics in Ulster have gotten together and decided to participate in the elections, to be held in May. Both factions have agreed to advance on equal number of candidates, who are to have mutual support. The Sinn Fein candidate in the preponderating- ly Sinn Fein district is to get the com- bined -vote of the Nationalist, while the Nationalist candidate in _another dstrict is to get the votes of both the Nationalists and Sinn Fein. In this way, the Catholics hope to make a sufficient manifestation of their strength in “Carsonia,” as Ulster is dubbed by the rest of Ireland, to im- press the Orangemen as well as the government in London. Up until the present, however, both Nationalists and Sinn Feiners, if elected, have pledged themselves not to take their seats. 4 . According to advance predictions, the Catholic minority in North Ire- land cannot hope for a representa- tion that will in any way be formid- able against the combined forces of the Orangemen. On the other hand on questions where there is a divide Orange following, they would be able to hold the balance of power- Prohibition is the one question that will drive the Irish Catholics and Irish Protestants in Ulster to combine. If the Sinn Fein and Nationalist mem- bers elected do not tale their seats in the Belfast parliament, it is conceded that the “drys,” who have made great headway in the North of Ireland, will have a clear majority. The “Pussy- footers” have already announced that they will immediately precipitate the prohibition issue. According to statistics, more than 90 per cent of the license holders in Ulster are Catholics and either Na- tionalists or Sinn Feiners. Passage of a prohibition law would ruin tHeir business. On the other hand, the per- centage of Catholic and Protestant brewers and distillers is about even. In numbers, however, they are far less than those engaged in the retail trade. Their representation in the Eeunst parliament. would be negligi- le.
