FBI questioned him about the assassination of Lord Mountbatten the British World War II hero blown up on his boat off the Irish coast in 1979 500 “If they had one solid piece of evidence they would have arrested me" Dugan said “I didn’t answer any of their questions I’d be a fool to answer their questions" Dugan believes Ulster’s Catholics must have guns and claims to have raised “easily more than $100000" for what he believes is their need to “fight back” McManus and Gray both take exception although in different ways “Any man with a gun is a gunman" said McManus whose list of terrorist organizations includes the British Army the police the Royal Ulster Constabulary Ulster Defense I ! pro-Cathol- ic Magna Carta in Chicago CHICAGO (UPI) -An original copy of the ld English document that serves as a basis for much of US law received a formal welcome at the Chicago Public Library Cultural Center Officials sponsored a proper WASHINGTON (UPI) — Irish Republican Army gunmen who kill or blow off kneecaps in Belfast's streets or starve themselves in prisons share with the British an essential common goal the influencing of American public opinion That goal is vital because 32 million Americans claim Irish ancestry and are in many areas a potent political force By contrast fewer than 5 million live in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland American financial support is so vital to the IRA terrorists that heads of government from the Republic of Ireland Great Britain and the United States repeatedly plea for a halt to the flow of money and arms President Reagan who with many politicians reflects the successful blend of the Irish into the American melting pot urged on St Patrick’s day that “contributions do not end up in the hands of those who perpetuate violence’’ But the flow of money continues from such people as Daniel Dugan 62 a retired Virginia construction worker “Words can inspire but you need guns to win’’ said Dugan who claims membership in the Provisional IRA The IRA which has declared that “there will be no peace until the six counties of Ulster are reunited with the rest of Ireland” In March Sens Edward Kennedy and Daniel Patrick Monynihan joined House Speaker Thomas P “Tip" O'Neill and New York Gov Hugh Carey in forming a group known as the Friends of Ireland Twenty-fou- r other politicians joined the “Big Four" in declaring that Irish unity must be reached with the consent of the Protestant majority of Northern Ireland The group says it intends to “facilitate greater understanding of the positive role America can play in

have killed D-N- Y Or-H- Magna Carta the By Dennis Anderson Association and other protestant militias McManus 37 also labels the IRA a terrorist group and has a suit pending over an accusation his caucus was an IRA front but he argues the IRA will not go away “The UDA and the IRA are symptoms of a deeper problem" McManus said “We believe the root cause of violence in every part of Ireland is the institutionalized violence of British policy “As long as there is British rule there will be an IRA As long as there is an IRA there will be sympathizers in America Gray a sad looking man with a heavy Irish accent said the British dilemma is to work with this tragic conflict" the protestant majority and the catholic chairs another minority until they trust each other Rep Mario Biaggi But he snorts contemptuously when the group the Ad Hoc Committee for Irish Affairs which takes a more strongly caucus' statements are mentioned stance “There are instances of terror mi both sides" At the prodding of the Ad Hoc Committee Gray said “It is horrible But (protestant) terCongress refused last year to allow the sale of ror is not on the wide scale caused by the IRA” The British and Irish governments have conseveral thousand 357 Magnums to the Royal Ulster Constabulary an official police agency demned McManus' caucus and the New but one disliked by the Catholic minority Yorkbased Irish Northern Aid Committee The political ferment is welcomed by the Some various officials have condemned both as Irish National Caucus founded in 1974 by the IRA fronts McManus denies any connection Rev Sean McManus a naturalized American although he has supported the hunger strikes who was born in Ulster's County Fermenagh by jailed IRA members McManus said his group is opposed to “We have been condemned by the Dublin violence by anyone including the IRA but government ami the British government and wants Congress to push for unification of Northe IRA and Noraid" McManus said sitting in thern Ireland with the Irish Republic a comfortable Capitol Hill office “We have “The basic position of the British government been condemned by everybody but the fact is was that Northern Ireland was a domestic mawe have never sent a dime to Ireland tter" McManus said “Because we created an “If they have evidence then it is criminal irAmerican dimension the British are accepting responsibility not
