Seeing may now add the fact that
he will be held to await indict-

He was taken from jail by Act

fore U. s. Commissioner X. C.

Under the inspectors question
ing he poured out his story of
kicking about from pillar to post,
frequently in Jail or prison.
The reason he didn't register.
he said. was because he was sick
when the registration of aliens
started. and when he finally met
an attorney. the attorney advised
him, he declared. that the off,

he didn't need to register.

Bitter Debate Forecast
RooseveIt's ChotteI Mortgage Plan Of Aid
To Britain Arouses Dstrust in Some Quarters

Senators assert that, after exhaust
ing Britain's current ability to pay,
1t would be better to give her war
supplies gratis than to exact COM
mitments which World War expe-
rience has proven would never be
liquidated.
AS the senatorial group sees it
there is nothing the United States
will desire or need less once peace
returns to the world than leftover
airplanes. guns or munitions. AS
for peacetjme manufactures, of the
sort the British Isles are capable of
supplying, they would be even less
acceptable because they would COM
pete with American production and
thus throw American workers out of
employment.
Editorials in British newspapers
already have pointed out that exac-
tion of payment in raw materials
such as rubber and tin, which the
United States unquestionably will
need, would be the same as de-
manding gold for the reason that
these are produced, not in Britain
proper, but in her self-governing
dOminions and they would first have
to be purchased by the mother coun-
try with cash.
The above suggests only few of
the amendments that may be offered
by supporters of aid to Britain.
Much more drastic limitations are
certain to be advanced by the small,
but aggressive group of isolationists
who would like to defeat such aid
altogether.
Some See No Need of Haste.
In addition to the very real issues
involved, debate is likely to be pro-
longed by a feeling that there is no
reason for haste. Britain now is
receiving supplies just as fast as
American industry can provide
them and it is conceded that she
has ample assets with which to pur-
chase all of the goods that will be
available for at least six months.
This sense of leisure, of course,
may evaporate suddenly if, as the
winter and spring advance. the war
situation should turn acutely
against Britain. Similarly a great
change might be effected if the axis
powers should declare war upon
the United States. Barring one or
both of these developments or wave
of public opinion more pronounced
than expressed in the letters now
coming to members of Congress
from their constituents, adoption
of the Presidents proposal is likely
to come only after a major legisla-
tive battle.

thority-a blank check-to decide
how much of American production
of war materials shall be shipped
abroad and by whom and against
whom they shall be used Wrapped
up in such an authority, as many
Senators see it, is not only the most
vital single question related tc
American defense preparation, but
the power to carry the United States
into war.
The combatants currently pro-
posed to be helped are Great Brit
ain, China and Greece, but what OF
Turkey or other nations that may
be combatants tomorrow? Ger
tainly, it is contended, the authority
to grant or withhold supplies is a
weapon susceptible of employment
by the President profoundly to in
fuence the course of international
events
Differences on Every Hand.
Senators mostly preface their
comments with the statement that
they favor supplying Britain with
all materials not requisite to Ameri-
can defense. There is not much
sticking as to whom or how these
shall be paid for. But beyond these
two points differences of opinion
crop up on every hand and almost
all of them involve the basic ques-
tion whether decisions as to the
American course are to be made by
Congress or by the executive branch.
Senator Tydings, Democrat, OF
Maryland, strong supporter of aid
to Britain, for example, raises the
question as to who is to determine
what part of American war mate
rial production shall be released to
foreign nations.
II think" he said, that we should
at least require that the chief of
staff of the Army, in the case of
military supplies, and the chief OF
operations Of the Navy, as concerns
naval supplies, certify in writing
that materials proposed to be sent
abroad are not vitally essential to
American defense.
Wants Full Title to Bases.
Senator Brown, Democrat, OF
Michigan asserted that full title to
the naval and air bases in Canada
and the West Indies, recently leased
from Great Britain, should be ex-
acted in part payment for war sup
plies.
II believe we should have COM
plete possession and control of all
lands which we occupy, rather than
mere leases, and I would pay very
generously for such title" said Sena-
tor Brown. II don't think this
should involve transfer Of sover-
eighty over important British colo
nies or their peoples, but we should
have full title to the actual bases
just as Britain, for example, has tc
Gibraltar
Running through all of the Sen
ate comment is a great skepticahsn
as to the workability of the Roose-
velt plan of having supplies paic
for following the close of hostlli-
ties, in similar materials, or, at oul
option, in other goods of many kinds
which they can produce and which
we need"
There is a surprising number o.
Seantors who express. the opinion
that repayments on this basis woulc
be as difficult to carry out and al
productive of controversy and mis-
understandings as were the promise
to pay in cash left over from th'
World War.
