DUBLIN tCPl-The I counties of the Irish Revublic are exper- iencing an uneasy feeling of iso- lauon together with a good meas- ure of fnistratlon.

in the days before the island I35 partitioned. YWIIE Il'llhmGil gm-esaw a glorious future in a country free from British domi- nation and in full command of all its resources.

And in the 35 years tha have followed the decision of the six Northern counties to align them- selves with Brllhill. Southern ll'I.KIIIllEIl have seen the end of partition as the one panacea for the recurring nightmares of un- employment, emigration and threatening bankruptcy-

PREFERRED TREATMENT

lah treatment In the mainstay of the country's shaky eoonomy.

Republican Ireland resents in position as the "market garden" of Britain and for years has con- ducted an intensive search for other customers. a search singul- arly lack' in success.

In 1055 exports to the United Kingdom pmounted to 206,100,000 -87.2 peixcent of Ireland's total exports of f:Il0,300.000.

Equally galling to diehard rs- publicans is the knowledge that the present level of exports to the United Kingdom arises from Brit- ish generosity. . PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT

When the Irish Free State broke the final link with the Crown in 1948 and became a republic, the U.K. government continued to grant Ireland the same preferen- tial treatment accorded to Com- monwealth countries.

"Without the British market. we would be finished in a matter of weeks," a prominent Dublin bus- in e s s m a it told this writer. Whether we like it or not. Britain is the natural market for our agri-

cultural produce."

Agriculture accounts for more than 40 per cent of the republic'a output. It has few industries and almost all are protected by high

tariffs that. in turn. make for a

high cost of living.

FEW RESOURCES

Efforts to build up new indus- tries to provide Jobs for some of the republlc's 9o,ooo unemployed are handicapped by lack of re- sources. -

Southerners continually turn an envious eye to the six Ulster counties. long the industrial centre of the island. More than 120 new industries have been established in the North since the Second World War and the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, where the Canadian aircraft carrier Bon- aventure was built. in the largest in the world.

in .1955 exports from the six counties totalled f:Z57.475.000 -more than double the figure for the 26 counties of the republic.

As in the republic, the bulk of Northern Ireland exports went to Britain.

Einpliasizlng the fratcrnal char- ity that should mark the members of Christ in this world. the Bishop pointed out that this had been rcpeatcdly urged by S1. Paul.

Concluding, His Excellen- cy. warned the people of the dioc- ese that "We cannot rejoice on Easter Sunday. if through any negligence of ours. Good Friday will have been In vain for so many. We cannot be happy at the thought of the number who on Easter lsunday will still be sitting apart :under the shadow of iniquity. lis- tilelllllg as from a distance to the voice of exultation that the Church will send up to Heaven on that day.

Dun- stan's University. held yesterday afternoon at the Charlottetown Ho- tel. In addressing the students as to what they should learn from their study of Thomistic Philos- ophy. the guest speaker told them that most people can think cor- rectly. but that the most import- ant consideration was "What one thinks".

"In our treatment of Jesus," the Bishop sold. "it is not enough to accept Him as our Head. It is not sufficient to worship Him without extending our charity to all the ac- tivities of our neighbor. in whom we should see Him. Because of neglect of this matter. there are parishes. dioceses. even so - called Catholic countries, which. from a religious point of view. are in a sick condition.
