Observers see the contest as

incumbent and his firm anti-
busing stand appeals to many

Kelley is challenging the De-

He said, in fact, it had been
ironic that the south came to
independence with the repu-
tation of a "Catholic" republic,
because the republican tradition
"had been explicitly nonsectar-
ian in its origin. And many of
its most prominent leaders for
over a century had been Pro-
testants."
Relations between Britain
and Ireland are friendly "once
they are freed of constraint,"
Lynch holds. He sees the real
dividing line between Northern
Ireland -and the republic as
an economic one, in that the
north's link with Britain pro-
vides substantial direct and in-
direct subsidy.
Growing integration of the
economic policies of all Euro-
pean Common Market members
could be helpful in bringing
about an eventual change in
that situation, Lynch feels.
