Removed from the Cork Jail
Because of Efl‘ort Two
Weeks Ago to Release
Them
CORK. Ireland. April ..=-—.\'ine sur—
vivors of the famous hunger strike
conducted in the Cork Jail by Sinn
Fein prisoners last autumn. have been
removed from the jail to the deten-
tion barracks connected with military
headquartris. This step was taken by
the authorities because of the sensa-
tional attempt about two weeks ago
to rescue some of the men.
At the time of the attempted jail
delivery all the prisoners were in the
jail hospital. where they had been
undergoing treatment since declaring
off their hunger strike. They were
immediately taken to their cells and
confined as ordinary prisoners. Rela-
tives of the men alleged they were
mistreated and were assigned ordin»
ary prison fare. which they declared
was endangering the lives of the hun-
ger strikers. A woman relative‘ of
Michael Burke. one of the men. charg-
ed that he was placed in solitary con-
finement and that the authorities had
refused to give her permission to see
him.
