DUBLIN, Ireland — Eamon de
Valera was laid to rest Tuesday just a
few graves away from Charles
Stewart Parnell and the other great
Irish heroes.
The gray granite rows of Glasne-
vin Cemetery, where the ordinary
people of Dublin climbed up Celtic
crosses and perched on headstones
for a look at the dignitaries around
the chief s grave, took in almost the
entire sweep of Ireland’s fight for
freedom down the years.
Now the man whom many regard
as the father of modern Ireland
joined that select company, at
tended by a few tottering survivors
of the 1916 uprising who stood at the
graveside, their medals glittering in
the late summer sunshine.
An Irish-American mourner,
Princess Grace of Monaco, an old
friend of the De Valera family, stood
out in the ring of official mourners
that included U.S. Secretary of
Labor John Dunlop and Sen. James
L. Buckley, Con-R, N.Y.
Also at graveside, their rifles held
upside down in tribute to the com
mandant at Boland’s Bakery, the
last to surrender in the Easter Mon
day rising, was an honor guard of
army cadets from the same unit De
Valera sent to Washington for Pres
ident John F. Kennedy’s funeral.
His coffin draped in the tricolor of
the Irish republic that he helped
bring about, De Valera on his last
ride through public was taken past
the general post office, where the
silent crowds were 15 deep. Here in
1916 the republic was proclaimed
by rebels who came out on bicycles
and by street car to take on the
British Army.
Prime minister of Ireland for 21
years and president for 13, De Val
era in his 92 years had also been a
country school master, a professor
of mathematics, actor at the Abbey
Theater, guerrilla chief, gun run
ner, jail breaker, member of both
British and Irish parliaments, pres
ident of the League of Nations and
the foremost exponent of the motto
"England’s difficulty is Ireland’s
opportunity.”
An immigrant who went the other
way, De Valera was born in New
York, which probably saved his life
and propelled him to the forefront of
Irish rebel politics when the other
15 leaders of the Easter Monday re
bellion were shot by a British firing
squad.
No tombstone yet has been raised
to De Valera but his monumental-
ready is atop Dublin castle, tile
tricolor of the Irish republic: green
for Ireland, orange for Ulster, white
for the principle of unity of purpose
that would some day reunite them,
but alas not in his long lifetime.

WASHINGTON — President
Ford and Treasury Secretary Wil
liam E. Simon told other world
leaders Tuesday the United States
cannot single-handedly end the
world’s recession.
“No country can expect the ac
tions of others to resolve its prob
lems, Ford told delegates attend
ing the annual meeting here of the
127-member International Monet
ary Fund and the World Bank.
Some nations and IMF director
Johannes Witteveen have urged the
United States, Germany and Japan
to take additional steps to boost
their own economies and help end
the recession in the rest of the
world.
“We respectfully disagree,”
Simon told the delegatesVToo many
of our current domestic troubles are
rooted in such excesses in the past.”
Simon told newsmen earlier
Tuesday he is satisfied with the pace
of the U.S. recovery from recession.
“My concern is not that we have
done enough; my concern is that we
have done too much,” he said.
Ford said in his brief remarks that
“a sound, healthy and growing U.S.
economy is the best lasting con
tribution this nation can make to
other nations.

While the United States will as
sist expansion and trade and do its
part to promote prosperity in other
countries, he said he remains con
cerned about a resurgence of infla
tion that could retard the nation’s
economic recovery.
“Each government must make its
own difficult choices about its own
problems," Ford said. “No country
can expect the actions of others to
resolve its problems. And no coun
try should follow policies designed
to solve its economic problems at
the expense of others.
In his speech, Simon said it
“would be unrealistic” to expect any
single country could lead the rest of
the world out of recession.
The IMF includes three Com
munist countries. A spokesman said
Tuesday that the new Communist
government of South Vietnam has
claimed the South Vietnamese seat
without protest from other mem
bers. The other countries are
Romania and Yugoslavia. Neither
the Soviet Union nor Communist
China is a member.

The Ford administration pre
dicted Tuesday that Congress will
approve stationing American tech
nicians in the Sinai Desert under
terms of the new Israeli-Egyptian
accord.
Egyptian officials prepared to
leave for Geneva for formal signing
of the pact, and Israeli officials
sought its approval by the Knesset,
or parliament.
Presidential spokesman Ron Nes-
sen said the White House gave ad
vance notification to 29 congres
sional leaders Monday before the
Israeli-Egyptian agreement was
made public and most of them indi
cated their approval.
He said President Ford expects
Congress’approval "within a couple
of weeks. ”
Some members of Congress, in
cluding Senate Majority Leader
Mike Mansfield, D-Mont., fear that
the dispatch of up to 200 Americans
to operate monitoring stations in the
desert buffer zone could lead to
another Vietnam-type involve
ment. But Nessen said he sees “no
similarities with the Vietnam situa
tion.
Israeli officials were awaiting ap
proval of the pact by parliament on
Wednesday. The ruling Labor party
and two small coalition parties held
central committee meetings and ag
reed to support the pact. Political
observers said their action would
provide 69 or 70 votes out of the
120-seat parliament.
Diplomatic sources in Geneva
said the formal signing would he
held Thursday afternoon in the
Palais des Nations before American
and Soviet observers and Gen.
Ensio Siilasvuo of Finland, cliiel
coordinator of U.N. forces in (lit
Middle East.
Secretary of State Kissinger, who
shuttled between Israel and Egypt
for 12 days to accomplish the ag
reement, flew to Saudi Arabia on
Tuesday and assured King Klialed
that the United States will notrela\
its drive for a final Mideast settle
ment. He left there for Jordan anil
talks with King Hussein, then plan
ned to continue to Damascus and
finally home to Washington.
Khaled, successor to assassinated
King Faisal, wants Israel to relin
quish all territory captured during
the 1967 October war, including
East Jerusalem taken from Jordan
The Sinai agreement carries no
commitment for negotiations on the
Syrian and Jordanian fronts.
However, the pact does describe
the desert withdrawal as one phase
toward an over-all settlement.
Under the accord, Israel agreesto
vacate 1,9(X) square miles of desert
that it captured from Egypt in 1967
— 1,520 square miles to go to the
U.N. force for an expanded buffer
zone between the two armies and
the rest to Egypt. The new buffer
zone includes the Gidi and Mitla
passes, the traditional invasion
route through the Sinai mountains.
Egypt will take over the old U.N.
zone just east of the Suez Canal as
well as the Abu Rudeis oilfields on
the east coast of the Gulf of Suez and
an access corridor to them.
Israel and Egypt both pledge to
refrain from the threat or use of
; force, and Egypt agrees to allow
nonmilitary cargoes going toafrom
Israel to pass through the Suez
Canal.
