Andtheveryfactthat humanlawdoesnotconcernitselfwiththingsbeyonditspowerresultsfrom aprovisionoftheeternal law(I,II,Q.93,a.3,ad 3).Thatstatementcontains manyimportantprinciples.

Firstly,theStateitselfis incorporatedinamoral order,whichdictatesits dutiesandlimitsthem.If thisisdenied,andtheState isheldnottobeitselfsubjecttoanyhighermoral law,theneithertheState isallandcanmakeanylaw itpleases,orithasnoreal authorityatallandshould bedestroyedinfavourofa statelesssociety.

Dublin,March9.-EamondeValeratook totheairwavesimmediatelyafterhisparty's overwhelmingvictoryintheIrishelections withapromisetoworkforacureforthe nation'seconomicillsandtoseekapeacefulsolutionfortheproblemofIreland'spartition.

Later,theveteranIrish leaderwhowassweptinto powerafterthreeyearson theoppositionbenches, commentedonproposals concerningpartitionmade bythePrimateofAllIreland,HisEminenceJohn CardinalD'Alton,ArchbishopofArmagh,Northern Ireland.Mr.deValera saidthat,failingsympathy inNorthernIreland,such proposalswereuseless.

TheCardinalhadputforthathree-pointplanfor IrishunityontheSunday beforethepeopleoftheRepublicofIrelandinthe southwenttothepolls.His suggestionsarethat:

1.NorthernIrelandallow acountyoptionsystemunderwhich,presumably,the twopredominantlyCatholiccountiesofTyroneand Fermanaghwouldjointhe 26countiesofthesouth.

2.TheNorthernIrish governmentatBelfast"unite withtheSouthasafederal unit."Inthiscase,althoughtheCardinaldidnot sayit,theSixCounties wouldapparentlyhaveto severtheirtiesasaninteg- ralpartoftheUnitedKingdom.

3.Thenewfederalunion "associateitselfwiththe (British)Commonwealthas anindependantrepublicon thesamebasisasIndia."

TheCardinalsaidthatthe lastpoint"wouldguarantee theNorthitslinkwiththe Commonwealth,andshould alsohelptosafeguardits economy."

Mr.deValeracommented that"wehavemadepro-posals(concerningparti- tion)overalongperiodof yearswithoutanyresponse.Thesewerenotverydis- similarfromthoseofthe Cardinal,buttheylednowhere."

Concerningthesixcounties,whicharepartofthe UnitedKingdom.hesaid:

"Myownviewisthatthe peacefullineofapproach isbest-infacttheonly one."

Mr.deValeradeclared laterthatasPrimeMinister hewillputaclampon "privatearmies"whichhave beenraidingNerthernIreland.

The"peacefullineofap- proach"wasalsobacked byCardinalD'Altoninhis generalplantoendthe"unfortunatedeadlock."

TheCardinaloutlinedhis proposalsinaninterview withDouglasHyde,former Britishcommunistleader whowasreceivedintothe Churchin1949.Mr.Hyde saidinhisarticle-publish- ed"TheintheLondonweekly, Observer"-thatCardinalD'Altonhad"never beforeintervenedinIrish politics."Hequotedth" Cardinal-Primateasstressingthathisviewswere "purelypersonal": "Iamnotspeakingasa churchman,butasacitizenandanIrishmanwhois eagertoseeendedthepre- sentstateoftension,which isharmfultobothNorth andSouth."

TheCardinalcalledfor bothsides"tomakeconcessionsinaspiritofgood willandwithasympathetic

understandingoftheother's pointofview."

AnumberofEuropean countries"haveshownthat theyarewillingtoforego somethingoftheiroldconceptionofsovereigntyinordertoliveinfriendlycooperationwiththeirneighbourstotheirmutualadvantage,"hesaid.

"Asimilarspiritwould, Ifeel,helptoendthedeplorableconditionofthings causedbypartition."

CardinalD'Altonsaid thataunitedIrelandcould "makeausefulcontribution"tothenewtradeprob-lemstoensuefromthefree Europeanmarket.

AddingthatareunitedIrelandshouldofferbasesto NATO,andespeciallyto EnglandandtheUnited States,hesaid:

"Itseemsclearthatin presentworldconditions, under istencewhichtheveryexof civilisationourEuropean isbeingthreatened,nocountryintheWest canaffordtoliveincompleteisolation."

TheCardinal'sproposals weremadeontheeveof theelectioninthe26countiesoftheSouth,andboth Mr.deValeraandMr.Costellorefrainedfromcommentingonthematthat time.

Likewise,therewasno
