This was more than jest. Mr. John Whelan Dulanty, the High Commissioner in London for the Irish Free State, was reported last week ready to observe the coming into effect of the de Valera Constitution next week by assuming his new title "High Commissioner for Ireland"—i.e. by implication for all Ireland, including not only the Free State but also Ulster.
