UNITED IRELAND
< event not possible LORD CRAIGAVON'S VIEWS LONDON. May 5 Viscount Craigavon, Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, speaking at the Overseas League luncheon to-day, said: " Ulster is getting on very well. What takes place in Southern Ireland does not make a pin of difference as far as our position in the Empire is concerned.
" Jf, by some miracle, North and South came together, the man is not yet born who could govern the whole of Ireland. " The situation would only bo comparable with that in Spain to-day. But, while the terrible state of affairs there is not likely to last more than five years, it would last a century in Ireland."
