DE VALERA ONLY WATCHES
Dublin, Nov. 14. With the United Ireland Party now split wide open as a result of General Eoin O'Daffy's sudden resignation from its leadership, a fierce struggle threatens For.com- trol of the formidable Blue Shirt army, claimed to number at least 120,000 members.
For once in the while President Eamonn de Valera is playing what In for him the unusual role of a mero onlooker in the Free State i Political arena. The rift in the United Ireland, or Fine Gael, i Party is being treated by the Government's supporters nä purely domestic squabble in their opponents' camp. Apart from some ironical comment in the government press, de Valera's supporters are taking good care not to get mixed up in the affair.
The United Ireland Party was originally formed early in 1933 to cronto a solid front of all, the opponents of de Valera's Fianna Fall party. It included such ele- ments as the Blue Shirts, or National Guard, led by Gen. O'Duffy: Mr. Frank MacDermot's agricultural Centre, or Farmors"! Party; and the rump of former President WIlam T. Cosgrave's Cumann Gaedheal Party. The leadership of the new organisation was conceded to the outspoken, hard-hitting Gen. O'Duffy, while Mr. Cosgrave played second fiddle, at all events in appearance, an party vice-president..

Accused, a lightly-built youth, appeared in Court dressed in a long alk evening dress and leather coat. He wore no shoes or stockings. The court shoes and wig worn by him when the offence was, commuit- | ted were among the productions, as well as a lady's handbag, which he also carried at the time.
The chargo against Wheelan was that, in Richmond Street, he was, while masquerading as a woman, disorderly in his bobavlour, inter- cepting and speaking to and annoy- Ing pedestrians' passing along the street.
He pleaded not guilty. Constable George Strainon said, that about 11.30 p.m. he saw ac: cused along with a woman in North Portland Street. He was dressed in the same way as ho was in Court, only he was wearing the wig and shoes and also carried the handbag under bla arm.
