Typed letter to + McQuaid with enclosed information from Mrs. Una Byrne. Fr. Kent was approached by journalists and told that the NUJ, English and Irish, are to hold a congress in Dublin in a few months time. It is likely that the liberal group, led by McInerney, would be prominent. Irish group might vote for the re-election of Hutt, a Communist, as Secretary of the NUJ. The Guild of St. Francis de Sales has little influence. The assistant chaplain could meet the journalists and this would help the situation. Enclosed with the letter was a copy of the Committee Meeting of December 1962 and a copy of Hibernia. It contains articles by McInerney and Michael O’Leary.
