Americans Favor
Change in Irish
Air Service

Dublin mi -TIip Into ol In'
land s Shannon all pol l is In Un
balance. American airlines representa
tives have asked 1 hr Irish authori
ties to allow their planes to pass
Shannon ami land In Dublin. The
nllernallve is to by pass Ireland
altogether.
Throe American civil aviation
experts arrived In the caiptal to
discuss the matter with the rov
eminent, but no oflicial Rovein
ment statement has been iued
yet.
One of the Americans, Paul
BarrliiRer, director of the office
of transport and communications,
admitted that he v.-.s very much
Impressed with the development
of Shannon airport.
Want Dublin l4wdlnfrs
nut, he said, "a preat many
American citizens of Irish extrac
tion are anxious to have access to
the capital of their motherland."
"In recent conversations." lie
went on, "both sides seemed to
realize that sooner or later it was
Inevitable that American earners
should have an opportunity to
serve the capital of Ireland, as
they serve the capitals of other
countries."
Barrinper stressed American
civil aviation authorities' belief
that Dublin airport, as it now
stands, could handle the largest
type of Constellation and Sky
master aircraft.
"It is our feeling," he added.
"that the time now has come to I
face up to the development of 1
aeronautical science. A consider
able numlier of our trans-Atlantic
planes arc already living direct to '
London and lu is." !
He pointed out that Shannon!
would always have lis place as a
technical slop, and went on: I
"As a customs-free airimrt, it
can lie the cargo center for all
Kuropc. Hut we feel that If the
trans-Allaiillc pianes could fly
into Dublin it would lie n means i
of attracting many more Ameri
can touiists to this country.
Airrcomrnt Cited
"By ileveloplnR the potentiali
ties of Dublin, you will not be de
tracting from Shannon, but add
ing to the revenue of the country
by increasing tourist traffic and
thus increasing dollar earnings."
The Americans, by ttie 19-15
agreement with Ireland, agreed to
a clauf.e which said: "All eastward-bound
air traffic on routes
covered in this annex shall stop at
the Shannon airport as first Kit
ropean port, and all west bound
air traffic on the same loules
shall slop at Shannon."
'Hie l'n tied Staes airlines want
this clause cancelled.
Finance Minister Paddy MeGil
ligan has referred to the "runways
at Shannon as "the most expen
sive bus of concrete in the world."
and many Irishmen agree.
une irisii observer said: 'XHily
an American could blithely ask us
to give up Shannon, and spend a
! million or two pounds to improve
I the Dunlin airport.
"Have we profited from Ameri
can use of Shannon? Passengers
j pop I", take a meal, and pop out.
It seems to me the American lines
j should contribute toward the up
'keep of the airport if thev are
anxious to use it. Up to now we
have spent 10 to earn II."
