Following the political upheavals of the 1910s and early 1920s, C.J. Bundock, the union's national organiser had to visit Dublin in 1926 to revive the branch there. The union expanded its Irish membership outside the two main cities in the years after the war, though the IOJ continued to represent Cork Examiner journalists, and reorganisation in the largely family-owned provincial papers was patchy. ilhm.tripod.com /journ.html   (1262 words)
