Scope and content

Letter from Charles McNeill, 11 Stamen St., Dublin to Stephen Barrett saying that he shares his unease but wonders if Barrett's suggestions would actually help matters. He states that the Wexford committee had followed O'Sullivan because the executive did not give a lead. He says that the piece in "An Claidheamh" about the Keating-Drumcondra constitution was a mistake, and that Meath county had been allowed to drift into opposition. He feels that the placing of funds in local hands would weaken the Congress by limiting the Executive, and that would fragment the League. He recommends that as much of the deliberative work as possible be done by sub-committees of Congress. He ends by expressing his sympathies for Hogan's personal problems, and feels that he is still angry over not being elected at the last Congress.
