PLANE TRADE IN
PROPOSAL PLACED
BEFORE ROOSEVELT

are begging for almost any kind
Of fighting pplane they a get
now"
AS tentatively outlined, the plan
provides that the army and navy
would select some of their older
Warplanes and trade them in to
manufacturers to apply on the cost
of new models coming out in the
next few months, much as the pur-
chaser of an automobile trades in
his old car on the new one.
Free to Sell
Title having passed to the manu-
facturers, it was said, the latter
would be free to sell these planes
to the Allies and could give i'm
mediate delivery. Production of
rev models has not yet been speed
ed up sufficiently to supply the
Allies at this time with anything
like the number Of planes they
want.
Supporters commended that the
trade-in plan could be carried out
without changing existing legislat-
ion which forbids the Government
to sell to other nations any except
obsolete military equipment. Man.
ufacturers have the right, under
the neutrality law, to sell military
equipment to belligerents for
cash.
Advocates estimated that 500
planes still fit for fighting pur-
poses, although not of the latest
type, might thus be obtained by the
Allies at once.
Pepper has tried previously,
without success, to put through
legislation authorizing the army
and navy to sell to the Allies
planes which they considered they
could spare. This proposal was re-
iected by the Senate foreign re-
lations committee IL to l.
Awaiting Action
The Floridian also has proposed
legislation to permit the President
to give the Allies laid short Of
war;, and it is awaiting action by
the senate foreign relations com
mittee Wednesday.
Meanwhile, congressional wheels
