‘ULSTER IS NOT FOR SALE’
DE VALERA’S “BARGAINING’-’
DESIRE TO REMAIN IN EMPIRE
YEARS STRENGTHEN WISH
PRIME MINISTER’S REPLY
By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Rec. 10 p.m. London, June 9.
“It is impossible to treat seriously Mr. de Valera’s suggestion to barter for the inclusion of Ulster in the Free State,” declared Lord Carson in an interview. '‘Ulster is not now and never has been for sale on any terms. If any such proposal is made it demonstrates the hollowness of the negotiations with Mr. de Valera.”
Viscount Craigavon, Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, similarly insisted that there was no change in Ulster’s determination to remain an integral part of the United Kingdom. This determination was strengthened by the passage of the years. “I cannot conceive Ulster changing her view at any time,” said Viscount Craigavon.
