The Peace Committee, which the House set up have now brought in their report. Here it is:
"We desire to report that the Committee set up under the terms of Dr. Hayes' motion in the Session of An Dáil on Wednesday, May 3rd, has held eleven sessions in all.
At the first Session we arranged to meet the Army Officers on both sides with a view to an immediate cessation of hostilities, and the subsequent Truce. Practically the whole time of the Committee was occupied in endeavouring to find a basis for agreement. We failed to agree on a basis.
