BY FORREST DAVIS. Spectal Correspondence of The Star and Chicago Daily News. DUBLIN, Ireland, February 11.— Hatred of England and the English is singularly absent from the Irish of the free state, so far as I have ob- served it. A visitor unaware of the fierceness and passion of the recent war would have difficulty finding outward signs of it today. Not that the Irish people are inarticulate. They are anything but that. But, while they "speak volubly of what they believe to have been English' excesses, they speak without rancor. English people come and go as they please without let or discomfiture. The streets of Dublin and garrison towns are still plentifully sprinkled with English uniforms. Lorries transporting English soldiers roll by without comment from the sidewallg. On a recent Saturday the English rugby football team came to Dublin to play the Irish team in the British 1 international series. I went thinking perhaps to find there'some manifegphtion of Irish displeasure. An immense crowd was present—some said 40,000. Nearly all were Irish, a majority Sinn Feiners, no doubt. The roomy stands and banked slopes of the oval were jammed inexpressibly. Directly before me on the declevity given over to the compressed mass of standees was a Tommy in uniform and carrying a swagger stick. Other English soldiers were scattered here and there. The transchannel team hurried on the field first, clad in white with a red rose emblem on each jersey. The crowd set up an amiable roar.” Friend Tommy in front shouted “Good old England" and waved his stick. A moment later the Irish fifteen cantered out in green jerseys. The multitude cheer- ed a trifle” more lustily for their champions and Tommy clapped his hands decorously. During the game, which is some- what baffling to eves. accustomed to American foot ball. Tommy and his fellows and a few civilian English- men within hearing sang out “Good old England!" occasionally. The Irishmen’ kept up cries of “Come on, Ireland!” But partisans of both sides were equally ready to bestow commedation on individual feats, giving tongue to such exclamations as these: “A good gather!" when a player caught the bali; and “Oh, very good, sir!” as a general praise of ap- proval. The crowd swayed as Individuals tried to better their positions and occaslonally a spectator slipped on the moist turf, but there- was no bad humor. One _excitable little irishman nearby yelled out exuber- antly as a forward wearing the green was speeding toward his goal posts. “They can’t bring him down any more than Lloyd George could bring us down. bor, At once his neigh- a Gael also, spoke to him.

What- ever there is of bigotry in the south is not on the surface. I have yet to ;M'n'r my first discussion of the sub- ect, Here In Dublin there are Church of England or Protestant cathedrals, one atholic cathedral, and numerous parish churches of those bodies and also of Presbyterians, Methudists and Congregationalists, to say nothing of an attractive Uni- tarlan chapel. The newspapers carry notices of all these churches, much as they do in America, and on Sun- days and other days the people repair to their housés of worship as they choose. Catholics and Protestants work together in all public and pri vate enterprisés and I have heard of no instance of religious discrimi- nation. To return to the contrast between a popular image of a contentious, sul- len, shillelah-bearing Ireland and the quiet, docile, well mannered Ireland that {s, there is something "wistful about the average Irishman’s view- point toward England and Ulster. 1 have talked with scores in all classes. from bank manager, baronet, mill owner and clergyman to labor leader, clerk, jarvey and flower woman. I fhave talked to political leaders, men who have served time in English jails and detention camps. I have yet to hear a bitter expression toward Eng- land and I have yet to hear an unkind word for Ulster, “The Irish are a forgiving race,” an Irish landowner from out west near Galway told me. He is one of the Irish gentry, a man who has served the United Kingdom in three or four wars, but who is an ardent nation- alist. two out of Ireland daily for weeks, until fonly a few of the sixty-odd thousand who were stationed here during “the trouble” are left.

I have spoken with many English officers and they bear no grudges. Oftentimes when detachments leave the villages where they have been stativned they give three cheers forthe place and the vil- lagers return the adieus. The most unsparing denunciations of the British I have heard came from two Americans, one a news- paper man here during “the trou- ble” who emptied his wrath vials on the mamner in which the “black and tans” shot innbcent and guilty alike when they were ambushed on the streets. The other, a young attorney from Brooklyhn, born in Ireland, but an Ame; citizen, who is active in the Association for the Recognition of Irish Freedom, expressed himself quite strongly st the British for what he os- to have been their consistent misrule of Ireland. This second American had come from County West Meath, where he had been visiting his parcnts, to get some shells for his shotgun so he might go hunting.
