| Description | Statement issued by the I.R.A. Prisoner's Aid Committee, Gaelic Park, 240th Street and Broadway, New York City. The statement bears the title 'England Is "Tipped Off" On I.R.A. Plans By Dublin Court' and relates to the trial and conviction of two I.R.A. men Sean Cronin and Robert Russell. Both men were charged 'among other things with "membership in an unlawful organization" '. During the trial the State Solicitor Walter Carroll read the entire contents of a document found in the home of Sean Cronin entitled 'Operation Harvest' despite the protests of Sean Cronin who claimed that 'the lives of hundreds of young men in N.E. Ulster would be endangered if the contents of "Operation Harvest" became known to the British occupation forces." ' |
