days report demonstrated there

bowling for them"

goods" he added, "and there is
no claim by the President that
any of that has been sunk"
DISTRESSING"
Senator Connally (D-Tex), a
sponsor of the British aid legis-
lation, found it distressing
that more equipment had not
been transferred and Senator
Byrd (D-Va) asserted that the
amount was greatly disappoint-
ing"
This shows the need for q CO.
ordinator of defense to make the
program effective" Byrd told
reporters. I'VE ought to cut the
red tape, stop strikes and get to
work to help England and de-
fend ourselves"
Senator Pepper (D-Fla), advo-
cate of more vigorous steps to
aid Britain, said that $4,000, 900
worth of war materials won't
stop Hitler and 1t won't keep us
out of war"
IF the volume can't be ire
mendously increased within a
very short time" he said, "our
chances of keeping Hitler and
the war in Europe are mighty
slim and Britain's chances are
desperate"
DISAPPOINTING"
Another supporter of the
British aid program, Senator
Bridges (R-NH), remarked that
SIS, ZOO, 900 "is a mighty negligi-
BILE amount. It is no wonder the
British have had to fall back"
From Senator Taft (ROhio),
who opposed the original aid-to-
Britain legislation, came a state
ment that I'VE should have
shipped five times as much"
Senator Johnson (D-Colo) re-
marked that the report was
"very disappointing. but Hitler
had better be looking at his hole
card three months from now"
Expressing surprise at the re-
port, Senator Adams (D-Colo)
said he had assumed that be-
tween 1900, 900, 900 and 81
000,000,0O0 had been spent to
aid Britain. Senator Hill 3D.
