§ 67. Mr. ARCHDALEasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he is aware that the committee of the Carnegie Library in Cahirciveen refused the use of a room to the county council for technical and commercial classes; that practically the whole of the library, except the reading room and book office, is held by various Sinn Fein clubs; and that illegal drilling and gambling is carried on; and, if so, what action he proposes to take?
§ Mr. DUKEI am informed that the library committee have refused to allow the county council the use of a room for technical and commercial classes, and that the entire library, except the reading room and book office is held by various Sinn Fein organisations. There is a room where billiards and cards ace played, but the police have no evidence of gambling or drilling. Proceedings are being taken to restrain the improper use of the library premises.
