He issued an ap- peal to the Irish in the United States to accept the Irish treaty as a settlement of the differences which so long had divided the English and Irish people. } I wish to tell the Irishmen of America,” he safd, “that | there could be no action more stupid and mischievous than trying to keep up the feud between England and Ireland and America. It would be injuring all hopes of restoration of good relations in the world.” | On another occasion, in August, 1924, when he was President of the board of film censors, O'Connor at- tracted considerable attention in the United States by | prohibiting the showing in England of David W.
