on which President Cosgrave of
the Irish Free State and Earn on De
Valera are in complete accord.
They agree that the last word
in all legal decisions should rest

treaty with England, that noth- I

person to petition t he King or!
special leave to appeal to his
Majesty in Council or the right
of his Majesty to grant such
leave.
This means that the Free State j
Supreme Court does not really j

King’s decision as to w'hether
an appeal should be allowed is
not guided by the advice of Irish
