"War Scare" Might Bring Irish Pact DUBLIN. Irish Free State. June 30-AP)-The question of AngloIrish relations was pushed to the forefront and subjected to serious discussion in ublin in connection with Great Britain's "War scare" hasty for complete rearmament. While President Eamon De Valera was in Geneva to discuss sancother officials publicly, and privately talked over the possibility settlement of long-standing programs.

The matter is not dormant in London either. Emanuel Shinwell, laborite member of the house of commons. tomorrow will ask the dominions minister whether negotiations for the settlement of outstanding difficulties are proceeding between the British and Free State governments and whether there is any prospect for an early settlement. In the present European situation it becomes increasingly evident, informed observers say, that the hopes of a detached neutrality held out by the founders of the Free State 15 years ago have become impossible of attainment if Great Britain finds herself involved in a war on the continent. This realization is causing grave preoccupation among Irish leaders, who are, however, sharply divided on what measure should bel taken for Erin's greater safety.

The situation has revived again the old dispute of Great Britain's military bases in the Free State, and the divided soverignty of the Island caused by the fact Northern Ireland is responsible to London. not Dublin. When the treaty of 1920 created the Free State it provided for the maintenance by Britain of certain forts in Cobh and Donegal for detense purposes. TO SURVEY DAM SITE ANDERSON, S.
