ents of the British aid bill
charged Tuesday in a senate
report that the m easu re
makes of the chief executive

A foreign relations committee
minority report was presented by
Sen. Hiram W. Johnson. r.. Calf
in behalf of the bills opponents
just as they began their debate
against the bill on the senate floor
There Ia no need now for
additional aid TO Britain the
minority said. Britain IL re-
ceiying-and win continue To
receiye-all aid necessary that
can with y due regard 10 our
safety be accorded"
The report characterized Wendell
l.. Wilkes testimony In favor of
the bill as "one-man circus in
tended 10 influence our citizens.
The report then listed these spe-
cific objections TO the bill:
1T Is successful only in con-
cealing its purpose. II Is not

& extraordinary powers 10 the
