Sir, - The Fine Gael TD Mr Brendan McGahon is to be, highly commended on his Christian act of attending the funerals of the two young constables gunned down by the IRA in Lurgan. It would have been fitting if the Fianna Fail Party had sent a representative also, if only to show solidarity. What is the use of meaningless mutterings concerning such brutal killings if they are not followed by action, as actions speak louder than words? Yours, etc.,
Stillorgan, Co Dublin.
