POLITICS IN NORTHERN IRELAND [To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.
SIR,—As one who knows Ulster well, I would like to add my thanks to you for the recent Irish Number. The articles proved of great interest to. me as I am an Ulsterman myself.
It has always appeared to me that the difference between North and South is a religious one turned political. Anyone who understands the meaning of the Twelfth of July will Le able to trace Ireland's troubles to that one source. Those people who wish for a united Ireland are the very people who do not understand the country and its people. To-day we have a contented Ireland, Ulster and the Free State going their own ways, a different picture from that which could have been painted of her not so many years ago.—I am, Sir, &c., D. McCf.tiar. CAMPBELL. Beechwood House, 41 hills Road, Cambridge.
