u. S. Barriers
Cotton, Wheat
To Britain

London, April 24.-[AP)-United
States Ambassador Joseph P. Ken
nedy was reported authoritatively to-
day to be arranging deal whereby
the United States would barter about
100000 bales of cotton and more
than 100,000,000 bushels of wheat to
Britain for supply of rubber and
tin.
The deal, it was reported, would
be made under the barter exchange
proposal made two weeks ago by
United States Senator James Brynes.
The British Board of Trade refus-
ed to discuss details but admitted
there wero negotiations under way
with the Blynes proposal which has
received the endorsement of Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Rubber and tin both come from
British possessions so that would in
volve dealings with some of the Brit
ish colonies and dominions
There was no indication when the
transaction would be completed, but
an official source indicated negotia-
tons were progressing.
The Brynes proposal, which was
made in Washington, April ID, would
have the double effect of building up
the war strength of England, the
Netherlands, and Belgium, and at the
same time getting rid of some of the
troublesome farm SURPRISES of the
United States.

Vice President De-
cides to Keep Hands
Off Anti Roosevelt
Democrats Fight

Washington, April "a. lap
Vice-President Garner was reported
by friends today to have declined to
assume leadership over anti-RoOSe-
welt Democrats in the Senate.
The informants said that Garner,
maintaining friendly relations in the
White House since the session start
ed, has decided to keep q hands-oft
attitude in any arguments between
the President and his critics and
Congress.
Early in the session there were in
dications that Garner might act &c
the Senate's strategist against vari-
Gus administration spending pro-
posals. Since then, however, he has
been discussed widely as possible
presidential candidate in 194O Sen
ate sources said that this had placed
him in position where it would ap-
pear that he was striving for per-
sonal advantages if he actively OPP
posed the Presidents policies.
In former years, Garner has
spoken his mind at cabinet meet
ings.
On one occasion he has been cred
tied with organizing capital oppOsi-
ton to New Deal proposals.
In recent months, it was reported
reliably he has maintained non
committal attitude in cabinet ses-
SiOnS.
