Typed report on Fianna Fail Organisation on Dun Laoire-Rathdown. During the past eighteen months there has been an underhand move to hurt Sean Brady T.D. and boost the Booth Bros., Lionel and Basil. Basil started the controversy in County Council on the topic of Scholarships. Matt Cullen pointed out that the minority in the Republic got far more concessions in percentage to their population than the Catholics. Brady blamed by the Booths for letters to the Press disassociating himself and the FF Party from the action of the Booths. Heated debate followed. De Valera met Sean Brady and Councillors from A. Brady threatened to resign from FF if Booth does not apologise. A man called Dolski must be treated with caution.
