Aid

loan to Britain for purchase of
military supplies in this coun-
try was advocated by Taft as an
alternative to the administra-
ton program for lending and
leasing the airplanes, guns and
other equipment which the Brit
ish have asked from the United
States. That plan, he said, would
avoid giving lone man the pow
er to take US into war"
He doubted" he said, that
President Roosevelt would EEK
ercise" that power 50 long as a
majority of the people opposed
war, but, he declared at another
point in his address, Secretary
of War Stimson and Secretary
Of Navy Knox had been appoint
ed to the cabinet because they
were for war"
'"fhere is no need to give these
powers Tin the British aid billy
If we intend our aid to Britain
to be short of war;" Taft said.
1.-THE Senate faces the choice
now. If the people remain OPP
posed to war; ] doubt if the
president will exercise his privi-
lege of going to war. But the
people are going to face the
same choice within the next
six months"
As for Stimson and Knox,
Taft said he utterly disagreed"
with their statements that de-
feat Of Britain probably would
be followed by an early attack
on the United States.
1.-THE truth is" he said, "that
these gentlemen have always
been for war. Secretary Knox
has been in favor of conveying
ships through the war zone ever
since the, war started in Septem-
Der, 1899. If his policies had
been followed, we would be in
the war now.
Secretary Stimson advocated
conveys and the use of amer
lean bases by the British fleet in
June, 1910. The truth is that
both of these gentlemen were
appointed because they were
for war"
1T has been suggested that
we transfer destroyers," Taft
continued, apparently referring
to a proposal by Wendell L.
Willkie, the 1910 Republican
presidential nominee, that the
United States send five to ten
such warships a month to Brit
ain.
I'VE have only 159 destroyers
left and only Is more will be
delivered in 1941," Taft de-
clared. Modern war has in
creased the number of destroyers
necessary for a given number of
battleships. Already we have
too few. I would regard it as
a violation of my oath to author
ize the president to deplete the
navy further at the present
time"
He said he was for aid to
Britain, and he thought the best
way to assure it was to build up
American industrial production.
The pending bill, he contended,
would not advance that purpose.

utterly with out foundation,
stirred belief today that Britain

news agency-said German
troops already were crossing
into Bulgaria from Rumania,
and the Turkish official radio at
Ankara broadcast that the Brit
ish were holding large forces in
North Africa in readiness for
dash into the Balkans through
Greece.
IF this is So" the radio added,
ut means the British either
want to establish Balkan front
against Germany or prevent
Greece from being rushed by
German threats into an untime-
ly armistice.
The Reuters dispatch from
Belgrade said: According to one
unconfirmed report, German
troops have been crossing into
Bulgaria, across the Danube at

BALLOTS TO DECIDE
GU OTTO PROVISIONS
Wheat Farms to Decide
Important Economic
Policy, May 81.

A ballot which Americans have
long used to determine national
policies will be used by wheat far
mers May 81 to decide an import
ant economic policy, says R. o.
Stelzer, executive officer of the
AAA in Maryland. On May 81,
wheat farmers of Washington
county will join with those of the
rest of the Nation in deciding
whether or not to have marketing
quotas.
Mr.. Seltzer states that each
wheat community in the country
will have it's polling place. and
three local wheat farmers will be
in charge of the referendum. They
are responsible for posting public
notices of the referendum and for
seeing that each eligible farmer has
an opportunity to cast his vote in
secret.
When the voting is concluded,
the counting of the ballots will be
public. When Washington county
results have been compiled, they
will be sent to the State AAA Of
flee. National results will be com
piled by the Department of Agricul-
ture in Washington.
All farmers affected by the
wheat quotas may cast vote. Mr..
Stelzer urges each wheat farmer to
find out from his community or
county committeeman whether he
is eligible. If two-thirds of the
farmers voting approve, the quota
will become effective.
The defense emergency makes
the referendum question all the
more important" Mr.. Stelzer
points out 'While the prepared
ness program calls for a good sized
reserve, it also needs some prOvi-
sion for handling the large supply
so that wheat prices will not be
depressed. This is done under
quotas by storing the surplus and
dividing the available market eQuit-
ably. Whether this is to be done
will be decided by the farmers vot-
ing in the referendum on May 81
