on DE VAIERA'S TERMS
UNION UNTHINKABLE
OPINION OF MR. ANDREWS
LONDON, November 25,
Mr. J. M. Andrews, who succeeds Lord Craigavon pending a decision by his party, said in his-most recent speech, in July, that the union of Eire and Ulster on Mr. de Valera's terms was unthinkable because it would mean that Ulster would be neutral. Joint action by Britain, Eire, and Ulster was essential for the defence of the British Isles, and he would welcome such a scheme. Mr. de Valera, in a statement, said: "Despite his views I cherished the hope that Lord Craigavon would yet play a leading part in reuniting our country. I liked him personally. What a pity that he is dead while the thing he supported lives."
