He blamed inadequate wartime measures, army recruiting hurdles for nationalists, and the coalition government’s formation for waning enthusiasm and Sinn Fein activity. Unionist Hawkinson proposed delaying debate to avoid policy controversy while Home Secretary Simon supported the motion against martial law.
