Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - July 11, 1938, Winnipeg, Manitoba Page ten Winnipeg free press monday july 11, 1938 Peppery Irish Stew ask Dublin Man about Cork. This is one of a series of articles written in Europe by Francis h. By Evans free press legislative re Porter now on leave of absence by Francis h. Stevens Dublin Ireland june it not in Belfast but shout it from the roofs in Dublin Dev has prom ised us that Ulster will be joined up with the rest of Ireland before the next election comes take the word of a Young travel Ling Salesman for a Dublin grocery firm that is going to come to pass. He told me he heard or. De Valera say so and that s who Dev is the Man who Heads Eire s ship of state with a handsomely increased maj it under the same government you can depend upon it Belfast and Dublin will manage to get along there d be a riot believe me he said something. For what Haven t i been hearing about Cork in Dublin i m going Down to Cork tomorrow and if i were to repeat there some of the things they be been saying to me about Cork in Dublin there would be a riot. I Haven t heard even a Mono Syl Lable uttered against Belfast in Dublin but As for Cork Well to give g. J. Guttormsson Riverton poet sails for Iceland Ortity. A letter from an enthusiastic one quotation my waiter at break supporter today in a Dublin news fast this morning said we hav paper hails de Valera As greater than no doubt he is right but some it does seem a bit out of order mentioning Ireland s tall lanky and schoolmaster ish prime minister in the same breath with Napoleon. When i asked or. Terence Ryan just Ulster was going to be persuaded to come under the Banner of Eire he was a Little vague on the technicalities but assured me there was no idea of Force in the matter. To be sure they la be glad enough to come in with us after they have Given the matter a Little he said. I thought of the Belfast Man i met on the ship across the Atlantic and wondered. He almost had a stroke of apoplexy when i suggested that the Only reasonable thing was an undivided Ireland. Terence Ryan s Point of View is this and i found it More Worth while than a professional politician s if Dublin and Cork can make a go of a maws idea of breakfast in Fortis toasted re roof re Side for the last time flex Stone Asbestos and Asphalt roofing shingles Asbestos Cedar Grain siding shingles All in Beautiful new colors and blends also Rock Wool blown into Walls and attics for free estimates Call the Western Asbestos company limited 384 Donald St. Pm. 26 052 Gurney prepare now to re place inefficient and outmoded heating units.

Winnipeg pm. 57 348-9 Transcona a saying that goes Cork s own City and the Devil s own people in other words a bit of asperity is the spice of life among the Sof spoken people of Ireland and Here in Dublin they Don t care if Belfast is snooty they want Belfast and Al of Ulster with them just the same As Terence Ryan said hopefully and with a note of friendliness to Ward Ulster in his voice they la be glad to come along with us after they have Given the matter a Little a Little thought Pardon me for interjecting personal opinion into this but i do wonder if that isn1 what has been lacking and on both sides too a Little i Ulster were As keen in keeping All of Ireland within the folds o the British Commonwealth As she is in keeping her own complexion almost violently British and a very Imperial red at that could t she do it better As part of All Ireland than in her present factional condition the Belfast Man on the ship who i feared was going to have a lamentably premature death merely because i mildly suggested Union said one thing noteworthy. In the end it All boils Down to said he. Fooled by talk. From the Way they talk you d think there Are not any protestants South of Ulster. Honestly All that kind of talk fooled me. Too. I actually was surprised to find Here presbyterian and Baptist churches All Over Dublin some of them Large ones too. And fronting on St. Stephen s Green is a Large Stone Church named the St. Stephen s Green unitarian Church. And of course one knows that the anglican Church is All Over the map of ire land often occupying ancient i churches that were seized from the roman catholics in the sad old Days and Welcome to them now. Does anyone hear of lamentations these Days from the non catholics of Ireland outside Ulster i Haven t been Able to detect any. In fact the new president of Eire. Or. Douglas Hyde is a protestant. So it does begin to appear that the bigotry if any is not rearing its head South of the River Boyne. This brings us Back to Cork which i suspect i am going to like immensely in spite of the Dublin talk. And Between you and me. Dublin probably has a great affection for Cork which she tries her Best to conceal. Those Cor ionians simply have got away with so much that it would t do to admit there is any Good in them. The talk is that Cork has got away with More representation in the government than she has a right to and has been exceptionally Well treated in the civil service. Having conceded that Back we come to Belfast again and i m very sorry time does t permit me to get there. One reason Dublin wants Belfast to Fly the Irish Iri color Over Ler roofs and by the Way we All Inow that Tri color has a generous amount of Orange in it is just to keep Cork from getting away with so much. As Denis Boles said to me and he Ells books and magazines on the next Corner if they Are As smart As they say they Are up there what have they got to fear from us Siire they would be running the govern ment of Ireland if they have All the brains and we have there does appear to be some argument to that except that we know by now that Belfast knows darned there Are plenty of brains South of the Boyne and some Clever ones at that. Old Dev himself is nobody s fool. No groceries thank you. I asked Terence Ryan for one just Why he Felt so unkindly about Cork and he told me it was because when he went Down there for his wholesale grocery firm they said no thank you we Don t have to Call on Dublin for groceries we can do very nicely with All we need right of they Are terrible he said terrible it s things like this that make one suspect that canadians Are unduly pessimistic when they shake their Heads Over sectional ism in Canada. If 3.000 Miles Broad can keep on being As Well United As she is today it does begin to look As if the Dominion an object lesson for Little Ireland. The longest line that possibly can be drawn on land in Ireland is 30j Miles from mizen head in the southwestern to fair head in the Northeast. It was a South of Ireland Man who told me it made him feel just a Little angry when he visited Ulster to hear them beating the old War Drums All Over the place just Asil we still were in the 17th he said.
