We have found one man here In Ire
land Who is opposed to cooperation.
Walking along . country road near
omaxh ~e came upon . shre~d faced
lrishman who Vas very ready TO talk
about cooperation He Vas evidently
= man OF some intelligence and. ludG
ing from his manner and address. .
man OF some experience and success
In business. So Ne engaged him 10
conversation about cooperation and
its effects.

is no sense in IT," And be gave us in

shook his head With misyivings.
So. II II be true. as our Irish friend
