unanimous in favoring such a policy
AS the tide of aggression has surged
forward We have more and more
urgent requests for speed in filling
orders from these nations for all
kinds of war material. At the same
time We have great need to carry
forward at utmost speed our own
domestic defense program. The
greatest problem confronting the
Seventy-seventh Congress, which
convened a few days ago, is to help
solve this vital problem of
speed in turning out war materials
for ourselves and for other nations
endeavoring to stop the march OF
the aggressors.
The Lease-Lend Bill.
On January 10 Senator Barkley
introduced in the Senate of the
United States, and I introduced in
the House of Representatives, bill
to enable the Government, in the
interest of national defense, to fur
nish war supplies and equipment to
any country whose defense is con-
sidered vital to the defense of the
United States. 1t is purely meas
ure of self-defense, of self-preserva-
ton. The purpose of the bill is to
keep the United States out of war
and to keep war from coming to the
United States.
In statement of January IS that
great American, Secretary Of State
Cordell Hull said that for us to
