Belfast, Oct. 19.

The raid by armed men last weekend on British army barracks in Omagh, Northern Ire land, is regarded here as a sign that the illegal Irish Republican Army is gathering strength.

The raid by 26 men with blackened faces was carried out on Commando lines, and showed

evidence of intense training and planning.

During the last five years, the secret army, which

is pledged to drive British rule out of Ireland and unite

the six northern provinces with the Republic in the

SHE-WOLF south, has been gradually building up its membership

Heavy Odds Against Republicans

Washington, Oct. 19.

The blackest fact for Republicans in this poli- tical campaign is that the United States tradition dictates heavy odds against their Party in the elec- tion which takes place two weeks from today.

The odds roughly are nine to one, based on recent off-year election returns, that the Repub licans will lose the House next November 2
