Many years ago, a dashing young
Spaniard went . to New York and
fell in love with a demure little
Irish nurse.
Despite the objections of Castil.
ian parents, the Spaniard married
her. The man was Juan Vivion de
Valera, an artist, and father of
Eamonn de Valera, leader of the
Irish republicans. canon was
born in New York, but was taken
to Ireland after his fathers death.
Mrs. Catherine de Valera Wheel
wright, the sweetheart of former
day, is in Washington to plead
with officials for the release Of her
inSurgent son from a Dublin prison.
She will be guest of honor at a
reception in the Hotel Lafayette
tomorrow night, given by friends
of her son and the Irish republican
cause.

mother. She will bare her plea for

Soviet tribunal.
The mother says she has not
heard from De Valera since his
arrest eight months ago. There
have been rumors of i'll treatment,
such as being kept in a dark cell.
she says.
IF 1 could only know what is
true and what is untrue of the
things they tell me-" said Mrs.
Wheelwright. They give me favor
able news about his health, but 1t
is all indirect and how am / to
know they are not merely cheering
me up"
Adherents of the Irish republic
maintain that De Valera is held in
disregard of civil law in Ireland,
without trial or specific charge.
Mrs. Wheelwright says De Val
era never council1ed or wanted civil
war, but he did want a referendum
| on the free state treaty.
Two other women close to De
Valera hope for his release. They
are his wife in Ireland with seven
children, and the Marquesa de
Valera, his grand aunt, head of
the Spanish family from which he
came. The latter wishes to restore
De Valera to favor in the family
from which his father was cast out.
