IN TIME OF WAR
THE ROLE OF IRELAND
FRIENDSHIP OR HOSTILITY?
("Times" Cable.)
LONDON, June 6.
Mr. de Valera, President of the Irish Free State, made an important reference to Anglo-Free State relations in wartime when speaking at Blackrock, County Dublin.
He said that a free Ireland in a time of common risk could for Britain be only a friendly Ireland, but an Ireland in subjection could be only a hostile Ireland.
Nothing menaced the possibility of permanently good relations with Britain as much as Article Seven ot the Anglo-Irish Treaty giving Britain the right to harbour and other facilities required in wartime or a time of strained relations with a foreign Power.
