Excerpt from Impressions of the Co-Operative Movement in France and Italy I cannot close this introduction without a reference to the great kindness shown me by Mr. Henry Wolff, the respected publicist and accepted leader on Cc-operative Banking. I wish to lay parti cular emphasis on the gratitude I owe him in view of the fact that I have had occasion to differ considerably from the views which he has consistently taught. I owed a great deal to the personal-discus . Sions which he kindly allowed me to have with him before I left for France and Italy. I have, I hope, considered with care those argu ments, especially in the matter of State aid, which owe so much of their weight to his name and reputation. I feel sure that he will regret what he cannot but consider a falling away from grace in much that my report contains. I can only say that I believe myself to have been forced to differ by the mere logic of facts, though of course it is also undeniable that the mere passage of time has caused, in a younger generation, a sharp reaction against those views of State non-intervention, which formed part of the political doctrine of the Liberalism of the Nineteenth Century. I feel therefore all the more bound to state that, had it not been for Mr. Wolff, I could never have come into such free and friendly contact with co-operative leaders abroad as I was privileged to have. The many letters of introduction which he gave me were in fact invaluable and even the programme of my tour was almost entirely built upon his advice.
