(IF) Brit ish foreign office sources today confirmed reports the United States had leased the islands of Canton and Enderby In the southern Pacific from Great Britain as air bases. The lease, these sources said, is for 30 years, with a provision that it can be extended indefinitely. These sources said there was "no question of price or consid erations' in the arrangement. Britain and the United States had decided of Joint control be fore the war, following a dis pute over ownership in 1938. Foreign office sources said the subject was raised to illus trate the statement of Prime Minister Churchill yesterday that "the principle of association of Interests for common pur poses between Great Britain and the United States had developed even before the war. Various agreements had been reached about certain small Islands in the Pacific ocean which had be come important as air re-fueling points." Canton and Enderbury isl ands, mere dots on the map of the Pacific, came under the Joint control of the United States and Great Britain April B, 1939, by virtue of a SO-year agreement, reached after a year's negotia tions as to their ownership. The agreement provided that the islands, part of the Phoenix group, lyinf midway between Hawaii and Australia, should serve as way stations on the air route between the United States and Australia. It al;n provided that the islands be administered by a United States official and a British official.
