WHAT is requested is the
w complete strength of the
nation in economic war-and IT.
these modern days that Is 30
per cent of military war with a
margin over as deadly as mill
tary war, if not more so.
49, Mr.. Roosevelt asks TO be per-
mitted to WELD the substantial
reservoir of the whole war
power of the nation. not after a
declaration of war by Congress
as provided in the Constitution;
but in his sole and unguided dis
erection not only TO declare this
deadliest kind of war, but also
-te-mage If it everywhere ia iffff-thie-
world" and not for England
and against Germany alone but
against whomsoever he elects.
1t is urged that there must
be great haste on the ground
that appropriations for this pur-
pose can't be asked for until
this power is granted.
WHAT appropriation or ex-
w penses are needed to lease
or lend a piece OF property
If it be said that some of the
property to be leased or. loaned
must now be ordered to Be built,
nobody pretends that Britain
hasn't still plenty of money for
her immediate needs. As mat
ter of fact, she has been
strangely slow and delinquent
in final commitments on terms
and design.
The most recent federal re-
serve report indicates that she
has assets here of around seven
billions. 1t is objected that they
would lose value and hurt our
markets if suddenly sold.
This is probably true. but II
would do neither if they were
suddenly hooked to secure these
leases and loans. Doesn't any
body care what billions we and
our children will have to pay
or at least for some equitable
and just balance of burden?
THERE is no need at all for
Il headlong haste-Alf Landon
is right-to call this a lease or
a loan is as misleading as to
say there is any reason for
ming the bill blindly
through Congress. To lend war
munitions, expecting their re-
turn is. he says, like expecting
the return of a cake of ice
loaned on a Kansas July day.
The provision for payment in
commodities equally TaiSlead--
ing and under this bill payment
could be made in any benefit"
that the President accepts
such as an encouraging smile
and a few kind words.
This astonishing bill was pre-
pared under the direction of
Mr.. Morgenthau in the treasury
and there is good reason to be-
lieve that neither Secretary
Stimson of war, Secretary Knox
of navy and Secretary Hull
of state was consulted on its
terms before it was published.
Somebody beside Henry the
Morgue ought TO be consulted
before we buy a ticket to perdi-
ton.
We have no effective naval
vessels to send without hurting
our navy. We can send no mod
ern tanks, planes or guns that
wouldn't delay the training Of
our army. Aid Britain yes. but
in this momentive historical
spasm, can't somebody be think
ing one little thought about the
interest and security of the
United States.

TO THE EDITOR:

To THE EDITOR:
WHEN Mr.. Roosevelt told
Congress of the -four free
doms," a worldwide freedom
of speech and of worship, l sud-
denly felt as though were wax
ing from a horrible dream.
During the long eight years
was l after all mistaken about
our President? Had he been or
dained as great world leader
to lead nations. WILLING and
UNWILLING, into a Utopia of
no want, no fear, where there
would be freedom of speech and
religious unity?
l thought of important lead
ers of the world. How did Mr..
Roosevelt measure up to them?

Well. one thing is sure: you
don't live there, because you are
all flattened out, and your own
house is gone for taxes and your
insurance and savings got taken
a long time ago, and the gov
eminent is raising your kids now
so they won't get wrong ideas
about selfish greed.
l guess there is nothing you
can do about it, though, Spelvin.
Just relax. 1t is too late to do
anything about it now.

DeIano Praises
Whitehurst
Road Survey
Desires to Study
Plan, However, Before
Offering Criticism

Chairman Frederick A. Delano Of
the National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission today described
the preliminary highway survey re-
port submitted to the Commissioners
by Capt. H. c. Whitellurst, District
director of highways, as COM
prehensive and important piece OF
work." but pointed out that it was
too early" to record any intelligent
criticism of the far-reaching plan.
Mr. Delano revealed that special
staff committee of the planning
commission, headed by John Nolen,
jr., director of planning, has been
assigned the task of preparing a
report on the survey for submission
to the commission as whole during
its May meeting. Until then, he
said, it is not likely that the plan
ming groups attitude will be made
public.
Desires to Make Study.
'The report is a comprehensive
and important piece of work" Mr..
Delano said, land Capt. Whitehurst
is very competent man. However" "
he added, Il am familiar only with
the reports general nature and until
I have made detailed study of it
I should prefer to make no state
ment concerning its merits or faults" 1"
Mr. Delano said that Capt. White
hurst was member of the Planning
Boards Co-ordinating Committee
fhof tt,nrofnrn ~ ta
sumo that the report followed the
general lines" of previous recon-
mendations of the commission. The
Planning Commission was among
bthe groups and individuals that
urged Capt. Whitehurst to make the
survey" he said.
"One thing is certain" Mr. Delano
declared, land that is that Wash
ington has got to have better trans
portation facilities"
Transportation Lacking.
With regard to the parking prob
lem, Mr.. Delano said private facil-
tiles, such as parking lots, cannot
provide the answer as long as the
city provides free parking on the
| streets.
Automobile owners will not pay
for parking as long as they can find
free space in the city streets" he
said
One of the Whitehurst report con-
clusions is that private enterprise
has not given the parking problem
the consideration it deserves.
Mr.. Delano said that Washington
| transportation facilities were very
| backward" adding that this was one
Of the causes of the "glut Of private
motorcars."

BY a staff correspondent Of The Star.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md, April
26.-Ignoring the custom of pre-
vious Prince Georges grand juries
of suggesting changes in certain
features of the county the April
grand jury today had submitted a
brief report entirely lacking in spe-
cific recommendations.
The Jurors returned to their homes
yesterday after setting precedent
for the county by filing a report
only $50 words in length This was
in marked contrast to that OF the
October grand jury, which report
ed its finding in eight pages criti-
cizing the Cheltenham School for
Boys and liquor law violations, and
commencing States Attorney H.
Winship Wheatley, jr., for his use
of State police in the liquor drive.
In yesterdays report the grand
Jury revealed it had considered l8O
cases out of which 122 indictments
were returned after examination OF
372 witnesses.
In addition, the report stated,
committees of the grand jury had
visited the county jails here and at
Hyattsville and found conditions
satisfactory at both.
The grand jury also reported
another committee had visited the
aims house and that conditions
there were in good order
Finally, the Jury declared the
various officers Of the county had
been examined. No comment was
made on the county government.
The grand jury had been in ses-
sion since April 7.
