FULL FREEDOM IS DE VALERA'S CRY
Ireland May Face Ne70 Reign of Terror and War
BY MILTON BRONNER
Furoneau Ssu.~.r MA S.rwt..


DUBLIN, March 19.-"As long
IL as canon de Valera lives,
the Irish republic lives" say his
followers.
Today he is the new president
Of the Irish Free State, which is a
British dominion like Canada,
and whose officials are required to
take the oath Of allegiance to
England's king. De Valera is out
to end that.
1.-THE one ultimate object of the
Fianna Fail party is the unity
and independence Of Ireland as
a sovereign state" he said very
frankly at the time Of his election
as head of his Fianna Fail (Sol-
diers Of Destiny party.
1.-THE oath of allegiance to King
George is obligated by Article II
of the constitution. We propose
to remove that article.
Regarding separation from
Great Britain: Our objective is
independence. but in this election
we asked for limited mandate
and we intend to proceed within
the terms of this mandate"
60 today, more trouble may be.
~ brewing in war wracked Ire
land, which has been at peace
since De Valera's followers, at his
command, laid down their
weapons in the bloody but unsuc-
cessful civil war that they waged
against the new Free State gov
eminent ten years ago.
Tt is reasonable to assume that
England still is determined to
retain control of this little island
near her shores for use "in time
of war or strained relations with
other powers" as stipulated in the
constitution she granted the Free
State in 1920.
A lot has happened since De
Valeras 10000 insurgents laid
down their arms in May, 1928.
On Aug. Is, 1923, the president
OF the Irish republic" emerged
from his hiding in the Tipperary
hills and appeared on platform
to address a gathering of his fol-
lowers.
Free State troops dashed up in
an arlnored car, fired several VOL
leys over the heads of the crowd
and made De Valera prisoner.
For long time he was kept in
prison by Free State authorities.
They we're afraid to shoot him on
a charge of treason in view of
the feeling in temperamental Ire
land, and they were also afraid
to turn him loose to agitate.
So he was simply detained in
prison for long time-until his
scattered bands dissolved.
II n
D PLEASED, De Valera soon be-
IN came politically active again,
as he still held his old position as
president of the Sim Fem party.
In 1927, Kelvin OHiggins, vice
president Of the Free State execu-
tive council, was assassinated by
gunner. The government, un-
able to trace the authorship of

MAP PLAN FOR
JUNGLE RESCUE
OF EXPLORER
Wife Is Certain Trapper'S
Story of Seeing FaWCett
viii Prove True.
BY C. A. POWELL
United Press stan Correspondent

(CopyriRht. 1882. by United Pressl
RIO DE JANEIRO, March 10
Stephan Rattin prepared today to
plunge into the dense, green wilds
OF the Brazilian jungle, infested
with deadly reptiles and insects, in
search Of Colonel P. H. Fawcett.
whose relatives were "overjoyed" at
Rattin's description of a white man
he found held captive by Indians.
Colonel Fawcett's wife, at Mon
treux. Switzerland, was "overjoyed
and confident" The explorers sis
ter in London said hope greatly was
increased that Fawcett was still
alive.
The United Press told Rattin that
Mrs. Fawcett was convinced that
the bearded, tanned white man he
found at an Indian village was her
husband, who disappeared seven
years ago in search Of a lost civ
ilization."
Wife Gives Description
Mrs. Fawcett furnished a deScrip-
ton of a few characteristics Of her
husband, which Rattin expected to
be very helpful. His hands were
very unusual, she said, with. very
long palms and short fingers, con-
spicuously webbed.
He carried a strange black stat
uet, given him by Sir Rider Hag-
gard, on all his exploration trips.
He wore Signet ring bearing the
family crest, a dolphin.
British Consul General Charles
Goodwin said he was convinced of
Rattin's sincerity after seeing his
maps and listening to his strange
story of the jungle.
"Rattin's story is so close to the
facts in Colonel Fawcett's disap-
pearance and his statements ring so
true that we are going into the
matter further" Goodwin said.
Rattin is a short, swarthy man,
deeply tanned by years of exposure
to the jungle sun. He has a NOUS
tache, is feet inches tall, and ,
weighs about 100 pounds. Rattin
was born at st. Galent, Switzer4
land, in 1890, and came to the Ar
gentine twenty-six years ago. 4
Trapper Long in Jungle
Two years later he went into thdA
region of the Gran Chao and begarS
trapping and living with the In3
dams. He was known among thenh
as the "Caciuue Rubio." or blonok
chief. He Travelled extensively OH
the frontiers of Bolivia, Argentina,
Chile and Brazil, trapping and seek
ing gold and precious stones.
Rattin went to Mexico in 1911.
where he made a living as trappqr
among the Bacatete and Yaqui In
dians. He came back to South
America in 1916 and began trading,
trapping and hunting for diamonds
in the Matte Crosse country fours-
teen years ago.

land, where political rivalries are
keen, hatreds deep and bitter, and
wrongs of centuries ago burn as
deep as though they had occurred
only yesterday.
In stating his case for Ameri-

it this way:

AIDE To WATERS
FIRED UPON

Police we're working today on
a report by Owen w. Lucas, sec
retary to Commander Walter w.
Waters of the B. E. F., that an
attempt had been made to as
saSSinate him last night, at Ninth
and East Capital Streets.
Lucas said he was riding in
Waters car at the time, that
the commanders flag was flying
from the machine, and that in
his opinion the attempt was
made in the belief that Waters
was in the car.
His story is vouched for by Jim
Floey and James B. WeatherS,
both of Portland, Ore, who were
with him at the time.
Waters has just been reinstated
as commander of the B. E. F
but there has been considerable
dissension in the ranks.
The bullets, according to Lucas
were fired at close range. The
car was moving near the side
walk, and he saw the flash as
the gun was fired. The car was
closed automobile but the win
dows were open, and the bullets
did not strike anything.

had made contact with the kid
napers off Norfolk, but that rough

boat.
At another conference with
Curtis in Jail here, Haskell said
the shipbuilder discussed the
confession" in which he was

one of the kidnapping gang) on

versing the charges"
The telephone number given by
Curtis was found to belong to DR..
Joseph Stibelman, OF Baldwin,
Long Island, who was expected
to be called by the prosecution to
testify that his telephone was a
private one and that there was
never any "Hilda" using 1t.
The Government investigator

Curtis story, Federal authorities
ceased searching for the "kidnap-
ing boat" described by Curtis,
Search also was stopped for the
