passage of the "lend-lease' meas

Warning his colleagues that

Nye ridiculed fears of a Ger

Representative Cannon is assured its passage is Writ

its naval orders from Charleston, S. C..
Capt w. F. Jacobs, commandant of the local
base is thus assistant commandment of the seventh
district.
Transfer of the headquarters back to Key West
is believed to have been made imperative because of
plans for the tremendous increase in size of the sta
ton here Present plans call for money grants to
the station which will make it the most important in
the district and operations obviously could be handled
more easily from here than from Charleston.
