Joint Control.
London. Aug. 21. (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.
