AMERICAN SYMPATHY NOT LOST
EIRE'S NEUTRALITY Received Monday, 11 a.m. DUBLIN, March 17. "I have never believed that we j lost American sympathy throug'h remaining neutral," said Mr. Earman de Valera, broadcasting to America on the occasio^. of St. Patrick's Day. He added that the ancient Irish nation had been partitioned by the act of an alien Parliament. It was idle until Eire's unity had been achieved to ask Irishmen to be convinced that the State was responsible for a partition that would be found waging war and altruisticaily cieiending ww right of smaller nations to be free iium tne aggreobion of stronger states. "Britain has respected our neutrality and oehavea Wxiti all correctness, which has improved relations. Nevertheless, the parti-" tion which was the mutilation of our nation remains a barrier to any uue reconcination."
