Letter from Bourke addressed to the secretary of Cumann Ch. Ó h-Iugín, Fine Gael, UCD, responding to his letter concerning the acceptance of subscriptions from political organisations. "Your letter was of course of a purely hypothetical nature as no subscription had been received from the College Cumann of Fianna Fail (It was presumed that that was the “certain political organisation” to which you referred). … the committee see no objection to receiving subscriptions from students of the College, or any group of students, or graduates of the College irrespective of what title they may make use of to describe themselves. So long as the committee are sure of the bona fide College status of the subscribers their subscriptions will be accepted".
