§ 3. Mr. KINGasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he has considered the remarks of Mr. Swift, K.C., at Dublin on 16th July, when he discharged a boy of fourteen, Emmet McAuliffe, charged with distributing leaflets in Grafton Street, that the leaflets had nothing to do with the War and so the charge failed, and that the boy should have been questioned before arrest and not when arrested at the police station; and whether he will see that the police do not overstep their proper duties in these regards?
§ Mr. SAMUELSAs further legal proceedings are contemplated in this case, I can make no statement at present.
