washington, JAN. ~ -AP--
Specific methods by which the
administration would extend aid
to Britain under the proposed
lease-lend bill began to take shape
today even as congressional cri-
ties called for restriction OF the
vast power which the measure
would confer upon President
Roosevelt.
Senator Byrnse (D-SC) who
participated in preliminary con-
ferences on the legislation intro
duced in Congress Friday. said IL
was likely that. II approved, the
lease-lend program would be put
into operation by the President
chiefly through the new office OF
production management.
This. II was said. would make
for complete correlation from
start to finish between production
for American and that for Bril-
fish use. The office. headed by
William S. Knudsen and Sidney
Hillman with Secretaries Slim
son and Knox as members. al
ready has been charged by the
President with full responsibility
for American production.
In addition. other sources said
that agencies such as the Recon
struction Finance Corporation
might be called upon to handle
some phases OF the program.
The first necessity for making
the program effective, Byrnes
said, is a survey OF production
capacity to determine exactly how
much and what kinds OF equip
ment can be supplied to the Bri-
tlsh. He predicted that the chief
items to be furnished would be
airplanes. destroyers. and cargo
vessels. These, he said, are the
things which Britain is most an
xious to obtain.
In other quarters it was learned
that the Britist might be asked
TO turn over upwards OF $4,000
100000 OF investments In this
country as collateral for the war
materials which the PRECEDENT
PROPOSED to lend. British invest
ments here consist OF stocks and
bonds in American concerns. OF
real estate and OF British owned
companies or subsidiaries opera
ting In the United States.
At the capitol. with both Senate
and House In recess, administra-
ton leaders laid plans for hasten
ing action on the aid legislation,
which, In addition TO authorize the
loan and lease OF war equipment
on any terms the President may
fix. would permit the communica-
ton OF defense information TO
warning democracies and allow
the repair of British warshlps and
planes in American shipyards and
factories.
But In several quarters opposl-
ton OF various sorts was develop
ing. One group Of opponents, IN
Guiding Senators Johnson r.
Calif), Wheeler (D-MOnJ and
Clark (D-Mo) discussed the mea-
sure at an informal conference
last night. They were expected to
try 10 defeat the bill. and falling
that, 10 propose numerous restric-
tive amendments.
They have generally been al
odds with administration foreign
policy. On the other hand. oena-
tor Austin Of Vermont, the acting
Republican leader OF the Senate,
said that while he was IN sy-
mpathy with basic administration
foreign policy he believed there
should be some check on the au-
thorlty proposed for the Presi-
dent.
