IRISH BOUNDARY.
ANOTHER POLITICAL CRISIS.
London, Nov. 22. Professor John MacNeill's re- signation as a member of the Irish Boundary Commission, which the Executive Council has accepted was announced by President Cosgrave in a speech at Emyvale, Monaghan,
as being "because he had lost faith in the other members of the Com- mission." President Cosgrave de clared that he likewise had Icst faith and was forced to conclusion that the other members were swayed in the discharge of their judicial duty by threats and poll- tical Influences brought to bear upon them.
President Cosgrave declared that Mr. MacNeill had left because "the rights of our people in the north, unshrined in Article Twelve. of the Treaty, are being shamefully flouted." He was of opinion that the grave situation demanded the most careful consideration by the governments of the Free State and Britain. He appealed for restraint on the part of the Irish people and promised to take steps to prevent the infliction of injustice upon Ireland.
