Use Of Ports for Aid
To Britain Reported
Barred by Fire
De Valera Is Declared
To Have Refused to Let
Supplies Go Through
BY the Associated Press.

6y lnt ASSOCldlcu fIcoS
LONDON, June 11.-IriSh sources
said today Prime Minister Eamon
de Valera of Fire had refused to
permit the United States to use
either seaports or airports in Ireland
as a stepping stone for transporta-
ton of war supplies to Britain.
(Acting Secretary of State
WelleS said at his press confer
ence today that as far as he
knew this Government had never
made a request for the use of
Irish seaports or airports in the
transportation of supplies to
EnglandD
The Irish Prime Minister, with the
memory of bombs dropped in Dublin
May 81 still fresh in his mind, was
said to feel that use of any part of
Southern Ireland for such purposes
would open the country to German
air attacks as a legitimate military
target.
1t was understood. however, that
he is agreeable to establishment of
terminus in Ireland for trans
Atlantic passenger service.
The United States was said re-
liably to be speeding arrangements
for a direct air link with Britain
because of fear that German moves
in the western Mediterranean and
Atlantic soon might sever the pres
ent connection via the Azores and
Lisbon.
Robert H. Hinckley, Assistant
United States Secretary of Com
merce, who inspected airports in
both Britain and Fire and negotiated
for an eastern terminus for Ameri-
can-operated air service. was eX-
pected to report back TO Washington
in a few days
Mr.. Hinckley met Mr.. De Valera
when he was in Ireland.
If Irish permission could have
been obtained for stopover by war
planes being ferried to Britain it
would have shortened such flights
materially and helped solve fuel
problems for such planes as heavy
bombers. They have to be flown
now from Halifax directly to Britain.
