DE VALERA ONLY WATCHES

Dublin, Nov. 14. With the United Ireland Party now split wide open as a result of General Eoin O'Duffy's sudden resignation from its leadership, a Gorce struggle threatens for con- trol of the formidable Blue Shirt army, claimed to number at least 120,000 members.

For once in the wille President Eamonn de Valera is playing whatj is for him the unusual role of aj mera onlooker in the Free State i Political arena, The rift in the United Ireland, or Fine Gael, i Party in being treated by the Government's supporters AN a purely domestic aquabble in their opponents' camp. Apart from Home 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 1938 to create a solid front of all the opponents of de Valera's Fianna Fail party. It included such ele ments as the Blue Shirts, or National Guard, led by Gen O'Duffy; Mr. Frank MacDermol's į agricultural Centre, or Farmers' Party; and the rump of former President William T.

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.

The split in what ita opponents described as "this unholy and un- natural alliance" of the parties of the centre and right had long been prophesied. It came na something of a bombshell, however, when Gen, O'Duffy's resignation from the party leadership was suddenly an- nounced after a meeting of the United Ireland executive on Sept. 21. At the same time it was

A young man's remarkable 'mas- querado as a woman had a' nequel at Glasgow Central Police Court, when John Wheelan (22), 100 gh Craighall Road, appeared before Stipendiary Smith and was fined £9, with the option of 20 days' 'Im- i prirosiment.

The charge against Wheelan was that, in Richmond Street, he was, while masquerading as a woman, disorderly in his bebaviour, inter- cepilng and speaking to and annoy- Ing pedestrians passing along the street. He plended not guilty.

Constable George Strainen sald that about 11.30 p.m. he saw ae- cused along with a woman in North Portland Street.
