Dublin, Mar. 16-(By the Asso-
ciated Press)-Eamonn de Valera,
leader of the Republicans and
president of the Irish republic"
gave a personal interview today to
The Associated Press correspondent,
the first he has accorded to any
newspaper representative since his
return from the United States.
If any proof of the extraordinary
precautions taken by his devoted
followers to insure his protection
were needed, it was afforded by the
extreme care taken in escorting the
correspondent to and from the pres
ence of the Irish leader. For an
hour after leaving Mr.. de Valera the
correspondent was under the clos
est surveillance not only from his
escort but, as it seemed, from every
body in Dublin.
During the conversation which
lasted three-quarters of an hour Mr..
de Valera told of impressions he had
brought back from America, and re-
marked:
"The saddest thing there to- me
was to see the Irish question treat
ed by so many people as If it were
a religious wrangle. 1t is not a re-
ligious question, even in so far as the
differences here between the north
and SOl1th are concerned" :"
He spoke bitterly of the English
governments lack of principle and
craftsmanship"
England" he said. "is trying to
win by playing on human weak
nesses. AS a matter of fact, though
it does not realize it, England is
playing not on the weakest but the
strongest qualities of the Irish peo-
ple-their spiritual quality. The
young men of Ireland are saying to
themselves: AT best, the span of life
is only 20 years. We must all die;
so why not now in circumstances
like these?'"
The Irish leader is in excellent
would hardly recognize him. for he
is on the run and naturally does
not reveal himself unnecessarily.
Obviously it would not do to de-
scribe his appearance in detail, but
he looks extremely fit and conveys
the impression of being free from
any sense of personal danger.
The volunteer who conducted the
correspondent to Mr.. de Valera's
residence said that, despite the pro-
tests of his friends, Mr.. de Valera
persisted in working strenuously

ENJOYED TRIP TO MONTEREY

Thru the courtesy of Mr.. Jesse Cal
houn, had a most enjoyable ride 20
Monterey, and while htere Mr.. cyrus
Burley took me over the route OF the
new Highway near Lismore, where
7 witnessed one of them ost interest
ing sights have ever seen-the dyna-
miting of stumps, to clear the way
for the new road. When charge OF
dynamite explodes the conclusion IS
so great that you have to stand quite
a distance away. All the spectators
were so interested in the work going
on that a little negro boy who had
fallen asleep behind a leg near the
place where the dynamite was dis
charged, was entirely overlooked, and
when the explosion came ne was so
severely shocked and FRIGHTENED
that for fully fifteen minutes he was
hysterical and unable to speak.
The Highway passed thru a beau
tiful part of Black River and it is
really worth a trip out there to see
how nicely the work is progressing.
Mr.. Burley assured me that they
all would be glad for the Vidalia
folks to come out and see the work.
! accepted the hospitality of Mr..
Burley for the ride back to Vidalia in
his Buick car. On the return trip we
passed over some of the new ana the
old road.
Crops are looking coed ous there
and if favorable weather continues to
obtain, the folks along the river will
come out nicely next fall.
Yours sincerely,
V. P. CAMPBELL.

PRESIDENT BROWN SECURES
FEDERAL AID ON FROG
MORE ROAD.

President B. C. Brown, of the Po-
lice Jury, was in New Orleans Mon
day, for the purpose of comforting
with the State Highway Department
relative to road work in this parish.
Re succeeded in securing Federal
aid on the Ferriday-Jonesville High
way. The Federal authorities have
also agreed to take over and gravel
this road in the near future.
The Board OF State Highway En-
gineerS will also take over and main
tain all completed Federal roads in
the parish, which will be the Vidalia-
Clayton read, and the Ferriday-Ten-
sas road.
Citizens of the parish should feel
very proud of the fact that Federal
aid has been secured on the Ferri-
day-Jonesville road, and we congrate
President Brown upon the splendid
manner in which he has cooperated
with the Board of State Highway En-
.gineers ard the Federal Government
in our road work, and by which &C
ton he has enlisted their good will
and thus secured much aid from the
government on our model roads.
One has only to drive out the road
a short way to appreciate what these
roads are meaning and are going to
mean to the parish. We have the dis
tinction of ranking third in the state
with our road-buildirg program.
The Highway Department was
highly pleased with the progress we
have made in Concordia, and we are
glad of the opportunity of thanking
MIR. Brown and the entire Poi.ce Jury
for the progressiveness they have
shown in this good work.
