 A short time ago one Of the former representatives in Con- gross. Charles c. Binderup, of Minden, Nebraska, founder of the Constitutional Money League. in a series of broadcasts. known as 'Unrohing the Ghosts of Wall Street." said:
 "In all the pages of history there is no record of any war in any nation wherein the people were not first made to believe they were fighting a war of defense. The fact is. you can't have war unless you can first create a fear in the minds of the people, and the geratest instrumentality for this purpose is lying propaganda in sections of the public press, over the radio and in picture thea ters that create at the same time a barrier of prejudice that is im- mune to reason. So let us rub the cobwebs of prejudice out of our mental sight, like true Americans, SO that we may reason well to- gether. I have proved to you elsewhere that the war in Europe is a Gold Standard war. Now let me prove this by disproving every argument to the contrary.

Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia asserted yesterday that prac-
tically no lease-lend equipment had
been shipped to Great Britain in
the two months since Congress ap-
proved the $1,000 100000 appropria-
ton implementing the British aid
bill.
Contending that production of the
most essential war equipment was
begging down, the Virginia Senator
said in an interview that if the
British were to get the weapons
they need speedily something ought
to be done toward putting one man
at the head of this program and
eliminating the strikes that are
hamstringing it.
Senator Byrd showed reporters a
letter from Maj. Gen. j. H. Burns,
assistant to Harry Hopkins. the
lease lend administrator. on which
he based his conclusion that only an
"infinitesimal" amount of supplies
had gone abroad.
Depend on Procurement.
Gen. Burns letter was in response
to a request from Senator Byrd for
a report on actual dollar losses of
lease-lend equipment due to sink
ing of vessels on the high seas. Gen.
Burns said:
Because of the status of our
stocks and current production, to-
gether with the needs of our own
forces. the foreign aid programs
depend in most part upon pro-
curement under the $1,000, 0O0, 900
appropriation.

Byrd Calls forOne-Mun Control,
Strike Bon to Speed British Aid

This in turn requires the es-
the country to be aided, of the
detailed programs. the negotiation
of contracts or agreements there
for by the appropriate agency of the
Government, in most instances the
transfer to ports and finally the
overseas shipments.
ct is obvious that in the approx
mately seven weeks during which
procurement funds have been avail
able, no appreciate flow of ma
terials could have reached the ports,
much less the danger zones in the
combat areas.
Unable to Furnish Information.
"At the present time, therefore,
the Division of Defense Aid Reports,
which records lend-lease activities,
is unable to furnish information
that is of any significance as to
present or probable losses at sea of
materials shipped under such legis-
lation.'
Celebrating on his contention that
production of essential weapons was
tagging. Senator Byrd said, Il I'M
derstand that the British need for
heavy tanks is acute and we are
not producing any heavy tanks.
In fact, our production of medium
tanks is just starting.
MY information is that. we are
turning out from 500 to 800 combat
planes a month, but We are just
getting started on the production of
Comm. anti-aircraft guns which

Crete Shows Need
Of Planes for British,
George Emphasizes
Wheeler Wires Pepper
He Will Be Glad to Debate
In Senate, Not Helena
By J. A. OLEARY.

The latest British setback On the
Island of Crete prompted Chairman
George of the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee to stress last
night the Importance Of adding to
Britains air force as rapidly as
possible.
Meanwhile. Senator Wheeler,
Democrat of Montana. a leading
isolationist. wired Senator Pepper,
Democrat. of Florida. he would be
be glad to debate foreign affairs
with him in the Senate. after ex-
planning that committee hearings
would keep him in Washington
Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday.
Senator Pepper. an outspoken ad-
vocate of all possible aid to Britain.
had informed Senator Wheeler he
is to speak at Helena. Mont.
Wednesday and challenged the
Montanan to meet him on the plat
form.
Expressing q belief that if the
English had had long-range bomb
ers in sufficient number they might
have held Crete, Senator George
said that. to him. the most discour-
aging thing about Crete is that
warships do not seem to protect
narrow strips of water such as the
English Channel.
Fear Invasion This Summer.
The Germans. he pointed out.
were striking across 100 miles of
water at Crete. If they should at
tempt to invade the British Isles,
they would be crossing 25 or 80
miles from bases on the occupied
French coast, he said.
In this connection the Georgian.
who led the fight for passage of the
lease-lend program. said he had
heard that some BritonS now take
the view that if Hitler is going to
attempt the channel. crossing the
effort is likely to be made before
the end of this summer.
England he said. lis undoubt-
edly alert and is holding constant
ly in mind the possibility of at
tempted German invasion of the
islands. In certain British circles
the view is held that the attempted
invasion will come late in this sum-
mer. 1t cannot be asserted that
this is the prevailing British
opinion"
Raise Question on Navy.
Recent developments, Senator
George continued, raise a question
as to whether Crete does not show
the British Navy may not be able
to play as big part against in
vaSion of the islands as had been
thought"
He fastened to add, however,
