Strife in Belfast recalls WW II London for Kansan
Henry B. Jameson reports from Belfast as Northern Ireland endures a long siege under martial law. The Abilene Reflector-Chronicle writer details constant security searches, barricaded side streets, and a city living under threat, with soldiers patrolling, checkpoints across the border, and a tense atmosphere amid nightly violence. He notes dangers of being in the wrong place, the improbability of tourists, and his cautious travel from Dublin to Belfast on a $12 train showing the fragile normalcy.
