HFRQRPLFUHFRYHU\,QWHUQDOO\WKH)RUXP Memorandum on the State of Ireland VHQW WKH PHVVDJH WKDW WKH SROLFLHV DQG There are moments in history when by the urgency of circumstance everyone in a SUDFWLFHVRIWKHSDVWFRXOGQRWEHUHOLHG country is drawn from normal pursuits to consider the affairs of the nation. The mer- XSRQWKDWLWZRXOGEHDJUDYHPLVWDNHQRW chant is turned from his warehouse, the bookman from his books, the farmer from WRUHDFKRXWWRWKHJOREDO,ULVKIDPLO\DQG his fields, because they realise that the very foundations of the Society, under whose HVSHFLDOO\QRWWROLVWHQWRWKRVHZKRKDYH shelter they were able to carry on their avocation, are being shaken, and they can no LQQRYDWLYH LGHDV DERXW WKH HQJDJHPHQW longer be voiceless, or leave it to deputies, unadvised by them, to arrange national RI WKH ,ULVK LQ ,UHODQG ZLWK RXU YDOXHG destinies. We are all accustomed to endure the annoyances and irritations caused by LQWHUQDWLRQDOIDPLO\DQGIULHQGV legislation which is not agreeable to us, and solace ourselves by remembering that )DUPOHLJKKDVKDGDVXEVWDQWLDOLQGHHG the things which really matter are not affected.

Ireland is in one of these GLDVSRUDZKLFKLVUHIHUUHGWRQRWRQO\DV moments of history. Circumstances with which we are all familiar and the fever in WKHJOREDO,ULVKIDPLO\EXWDOVRLQWHUDOLD which the world exists have infected it, and it is like molten metal the skilled politi- DV ,UHODQG¶V µWUDQVQDWLRQDO FLWL]HQV ZLWK cal artificer might pour into a desirable mould.
