A Letter to the Editor. A letter to the editor of THE IRISH REPUBLIC regarding "The Deputy." ~ Skeffington feels that much O'Carroll's letter was irrelevant because he was just citing his experience. Skeffington later quotes Zahn's GERMAN CATHOLICS AND HITLER'S WARS and where the Catholic people are told to place their allegiances. They are called to Martyrdom for the people and the Fatherland, but not for their religion. ~ THE IRISH REPUBLIC ~ July 1,
