Eire Guts Last Tie With Britain

DUBLIN, Dec. 2i (C?) Eire today out her last slim con- stitutional tie with Britain and cleared the tray for proclamation ot a full-fledged independent Re- public of Ireland.

President Sean T. 0'Kelly made the break otlficial by signing a bill which repeals the External Rela- tions Act and takes Eire out o! the British Commonwealth. Un- der the External Relations Act E2ire's diplomats abroad were ac- credited by King George. The re- peal act was introduced in the Dali Nov. l7.

The final act of proclaiming the republic will be delayed "while rep- resentatives of Britain and Eire smooth out questions created by the now relationship. This proc- lamation by the coalition govern- ment of John A. Costello probably will come aiter Jan. 21.

These questions include the cit- izicnship status of thousands of Irish people who work in Britain and whether Eire will continue to enjoy the special trade privileges she had as a member of the Ctm- tmonrwealth.

Prime Minister Attlec of Brit- nlll has promised that any Irish- ntun may be registered as a Brit- ish citizen upon application to the

Home Secretary. provided he speaks English, is of good char- acter and has been in Britain n

year or is a member of the Civil Service. An act. oi Parliament may be required to carry out the prom- ise.

Another question to he settled is whether Irishmen in Britain will be liable for military conscrip-

tion. viscount Jowitt, the Lord Chancellor, told the House of Lords recently that an Irishman could be conscripted under the

present law and that the Govern- ment had no plans to change the law at present.

Eire iir effect became u republic in 1937 when a new constitution was approved and a president elected. Dr‘. Douglas Hyde, the ﬁrst president, held office from 1937 until i945 when Sean T. O'Keily was installed.
