Bereik en inhoud
A clipping of a statement issued by Éamon de Valera regarding the non-participating of republicans in the Tailteann Games. De Valera argues that the Games were ‘officially opened by Free State Ministers’ and that the participation of republicans would only serve ‘to further the pretence that the people of Ireland have now secured the freedom they desire’. The newspaper from which the clipping was taken is not stated.
