presumed lost.
The 7,555-ton Hog Islander, which
also served the United States Lines

of them have been sunk, including
the former President Harding.

less the Greeks continue to report
local successes.
A motor transport column appar-
emily headed for the coastal front
to supply the Italians was bombed
yesterday by the British Royal Air
Force, according to its communique.
The bombers found the column on
coastal road between Aghisaranda
and the important supply port of
Valona, it was said, and a number
of bombs were seen to burst on the
roadside. The trucks also were ma
chine -gunned but, the communique
said, a fierce snowstorm" which
hampered the operations prevented
observation Of the full effect of the
attack.
All the British planes were re-
ported to have returned safely.
The Greek high command said
today the Italians were being driven
back toward Klisura, in what ap-
parently was a Greek encircling
movement, while other Greek

"Detour" Around Palermo.
Fifteen miles southwest, where
second road runs along the coast,
Greeks apparently were attempt
ing similar "detour" around the
town Of Palermo, at the same time
battering the town with artillery
fire.
A spokesman declared the Greeks
had driven Italian defense forces
from heights northeast of the town.
Dispatches from Bitolj, on
the Yugoslav frontier, said last
night that Italians, their coun-
terattacks repulsed, were dig
ging in hastily near Tepeleni and
south of Chimara-next town
north Of Palermo)
At the opposite end of the battle
front, where three days of snow
have packed down on last weeks
drifts and temperatures have fallen
each day, Italian and Greek forces
alike were said to be suffering in
tensely from the cold.
A Greek Army doctor said Is per
cent of the Italian prisoners taken
in that sector were severely FROST
bitten. Veterans of Italian Alpine
regiments were quoted as saying the
cold was worse than anything they

culated that British needs as con-
templated by this arrangement
would cost in the neighborhood OF
$4,000, 100000. At the present time
about $4,000 100000 in British orders
are pending here-these not being
affected by the new proposal.
One of the first benefits to this
country from the contemplated pro-
gram, Mr.. Roosevelt asserted, would
be in the immediate expansion of
munitions factories, ship yards
and other production facilities
presumably to be financed largely
through the Reconstruction Finance
Corp, or other Federal lending
agencies.
Mention of this led at once to
questioning during the conference
on current criticism that defense
production already is tagging. Re-
plying that the best way to over
come this condition is by keeping
everlastingly at it," the President
disclosed later that particular in
quiry is being made in two or
three cases about the necessity OF
the Government intervening in the
management Of plants in order to
obtain more effective cooperation.
Power to do this was granted the
Government in provision Of the
Selective Service Act dealing with
industrial cooperation.
On the specific issue of weekend
blackouts of certain plants the Pres
ident said no generalizations could
be drawn accurately-that some of
the plants could be operated con-
stantly just as others are at present,
but still others must be closed part
Of the TIME for maintenance reasons.
A voice Of labor was added to this
particular controversy yesterday
when c. I. o. President Philip
Murray declared the lag is due to
the rather stupid method" Of dis
tributing and administering defense
orders.
Murray Criticizes Procedure.
"Out of some 10000 manufactur-
ing establishments in the United
States capable of producing defense
materials" Mr.. Murray said. "only
80 per cent have received Govern
ment contracts" It has created a
bottleneck which is responsible for
the lag in production"
The labor leader promised that
his organization will submit a
detailed plan for speeding the pro-
gram.
Instead of facing the facts and
assessing the blame where It BE-

reported, the first to indorse the
"lease-lend" idea were Senator Min
ton and Chairman Bloom of the
House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Senator Minton announced he
favored anything to help Great
Britain short of sending an army
over there" and Representative
Bloom asserted that "any way the
administration can help Britain is
all right with me-"
Senator Stewart, Democrat, of
Tennessee, also an advocate of aid
to the British, voiced conditional
approval. ITO the extent that we
can do something without impairing
our own defense, I am for it," he
told newsmen. ut would practically
amount to q gift, but I am willing
to 60 along to help the British, short
of war"
Senator Holt, Democrat, Of West
Virginia said, however, that he could
see nothing but "evasion and sub
terfuge" adding: eff we're going to
do what the President wants us to
do, let's do it openly. This camou-
f1age is dishonest"
Senators Study Proposal.
On the other hand, Senator john
son, Democrat, of Colorado, who has
been critical of many administration
moves in the field of foreign affairs,
said he wanted to think this thing
through" before deciding.
Senator Downey, Democrat, of
California called it novel and
interesting" but wanted to study it
further.
Representative Ludlow, Democrat,
Of Indiana, a sponsor of war refer
endum legislation, said that before
going further we ought to have a
showdown about England's financial
situation. have understood that
they had plenty Of resources and 1t
is only fair to the American people
to know what England's situation
is"
Mr.. Roosevelt's press conference
was held after series of state
ments and speeches by administra-
ton officials and others that our
defense program was tagging in
several important phases and that
Britain probably faced a serious
crisis in the spring unless American
aid were speeded up and increased.
Secretary Morganthau had told q
House Appropriations Subcommittee
that British officials said unless
financial aid was forthcoming they
could not place additional orders
here, although they wished to.

Cost Of New Plan
To Aid Britain Put
At $2,5o0,ooO,ooo
Expert Estimates Empire
Would Need Thot Much
More After War

BY the Associated Press.
At least 81, 500, 900 900 worth of war
supplies would be necessary, an au-
thoritative source predicted today,
to meet Great Britains needs under
any "lease-lend' program of Ameri-
can assistance.
This estimate, he said. was over
and above the 50 900, 900 900 worth Of
munitions and materiel for which
Britain already has placed orders in
this country on a "cash-and-carry"
basis.
The official, a qualified specialist,
advanced his estimates after Presi-
dent Roosevelt had outlined a tenta-
tive plan for "lend-lease' policy of
assistance, which. in effect, would
create here a veritable arsenal for
the British Empire-without dollar
sign limitations.
Britains military needs, this off,
cial said, probably would constitute
only one part of the broad question
of assistance involved.
Assuming a British victory in the
end, he said it was his belief that
from $4,000 100000 to $4,000, 900 900
in addition would be necessary to
rehabilitate the besieged, bomb
wrecked country when peace came.
To complete the defeat of what he
termed Hitlerism and to sustain
democracy, the official asserted it
would be necessary to help Britain
back to her feet.
The official did not specify how
long a period Of war he thought the
minimum of $2,500 100000 worth OF
supplies would cover. British sources,
however, have mentioned both 1912
and 1943 as the year in which they
hope for a decision if they continue
to hold their own.
Britain's present orders here call
for some 1000 tanks, more than
10000 planes and great quantities Of
small arms ammunition, explosives
and other war supplies. The min
imum estimate presumably would
cover slightly larger quantities.
The existing orders were under
stood to represent most of Britain's
anticipated needs during l94l.
