Noisy Campaign. O'Neill has firmly established his credentials as an honorable, if plodding, moderate. When the controversy was heating up last fall, he scathingly denounced extremists of his own party as "lunatics who would set a course that could only lead to an all-Ireland Republic." When Home Affairs Minister William Craig resisted O'Neill's efforts for reform, the Prime Minister sacked him. Last week the Deputy Prime Minister, Brian Faulkner, turned in his resignation and accused O'Neill of allowing the party "to tear itself to pieces." Unfortunately for those of good will, the attitude of Craig, Faulkner and other Unionist hard-liners has already frayed the fabric of all of Northern Ireland.
