Are you wanting to generate this result if your TITLE child contains 
either 'REMOVAL' or 'Removal'?

If so, try

<xsl:if test="contains(TITLE, 'REMOVAL') or contains(TITLE, 'Removal')">

If you are using XSLT 2.0 you have several more elegant options.

(Note that in XPath, "./TITLE" amounts to the same thing as "TITLE".)

Cheers,
Wendell
