Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cooperative Movement in Jugoslavia, Rumania and North Italy: During and After the World War The following studies of the cooperative movement in Serbia and Rumania during and after the War are the outcome of an investigation undertaken by me at the instigation in the first instance and with the financial support of the Horace Plunkett Foundation Trust and the English Labour Research Department. The preparation of a report for the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace enabled me to extend the time and scope of my investigation. I had originally intended to make a full inquiry into Italian cooperation, but I found that were I to attempt this I should have to devote six months or a year to Italy alone. The extraordinary number of cooperative organizations in Italy and the wide range of their activities arc such that no one could attempt to speak with authority who had not spent a very long time in the country and who did not speak Italian almost as his native language. I therefore attempted only a cursory view of Italian cooperation and have appended a few brief and inadequate notes of what I saw in Italy. My investigations in Jugoslavia and Rumania were far more fruitful, and I think I may claim to give a fairly comprehensive view of cooperative conditions in these countries. I have not seen any accounts of them which give as general a description as I have attempted, and therefore 1 hope that the rcadec will find matter which will interest him. I had originally intended to return to Ireland through Hungary, Austria and Czechoslovakia, but the fates decided against this. My companion on the journey was an Irish agriculturist, Mr. A. Vcre O'Brien, whose practical knowledge of farming was of great assistance to me. Unfortunately, he became seriously ill, which necessitated the curtailment of my plans. After a month in a hospital at Brasov (Cronstadt) he became well enough to travel again. But traveling in Eastern Europe was very difficult.
