World capitals Saturday
balanced President Roose-
velt's call out" aid to Britain
against Germany's new eco
nomic treaty with Russia and drew
conclusions generally following the
line of their war sympathies.
These diplomatic, long term de-
velopments were assessed against
this background:
The first joint German Italian
air attack on British sea power in
the Mediterranean in which Axis
reports claimed two aircraft carriers,
a cruiser and a destroyer were hit.
A big German air attack on Ports
mouth in which British night fight
ers went into action and broke up
German bombing formations.
Intensification of British siege
operations against Tobruk while
flying armored columns struck deep
er and deeper into Libya along the
Tobruk-Derna road
In London the Roosevelt propos-
ais to congress for almost unlimited
aid from Americas new arsenal
of democracy" were hailed as the
key to victory over Germany. The
British press devoted almost its
entire attention to the American
aid question and gave scant atten-
ton to the new German Russian
trade agreement. The British view
was that Russian assistance to Ger
many had never amounted to more
than "trickle and they doubted
that paper agreements would ap-
preciably change the situation.
Berlin took a direct contrary
line, devoting its major attention
to the Russian agreement which, it

substantial sentiment appeared to
be developing in congress to i'm
pose limitations on the far reach
ing measure.
Chairman Andrew j. May was
directed by the committee resolu-
ton to move Monday that the bill
be withdrawn from the foreign af-
fairs group and sent to his COM
mittee.
He was also instructed to appeal
from the decision of chair if Speaker
Sam Rayburn should overrule his
motion. May said he would demand
roll call on the motion.
May said the administration bill
sis a matter of national defense
altogether and deals entirely with
military matters-the disposition Of
war and navy supplies"
He said precedent was clear that
such bills should go to his commit
tee rather than the foreign affairs
group.
Under this bill the president
could give away a whole navy and
all of the army supplies" he said
I'VE would be stripped stark max
ed"
Several proposals to alter the bill
were being talked about in congress
A two-year restriction on the
sweeping powers sought for President
Roosevelt was most widely discussed
A modification to prevent outright
gift of war materials to Britain
and the other democracies also was
advanced
The iSolationist bloc cried that
the bill was equal to a declaration
Of war" and a dictatorship for the
United States" 1t girded for long
and determined fight to kill virtual
ly the whole proposal.
Former President Herbert Hoover
and Gov. ALT NJ Landon, the 1886
Republican nominee, who never have
been aligned with the outright isola-
zionist bloc, also moved into the
foremost of the fight against as
poets of the bill. Landon said the
measure was 'the first step toward
dictatorship by Mr.. Roosevelt" "
Hoover said it raised the issue of
preservation of democracy in this
country"
Proposals for notifications of
the measure met a favorable re-
Sponse, however, among many legis-
lators who were in agreement with
the presidents general policy of
extending much greater material
aid to Britain.
While sentiment was slow to crys-
talize, initial indications pointed to-
ward the possibility that the modifi-
cationists and the outright oppo-
nents, together, might have suffic-
lent votes to put some restrictions
into the bill. Most discussed were
these suggested limitations:
IA two year limit on the pres
ident's authority to provide war
materials and repair warships for

president deems vital to the defense
of the United States"
