President Makes First Re- port to Congress Under
 Lend-Lease Act
MAKES DECLARATION
 SUPPLIES DELIVERED
Says Methods 10 Be Used 10 Insure Safe Transport
 10 Fighting Nations

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Presl- dent Roosevelt reporting that Tit tie over $75,0O0,0O0" in defense materials have been transferred under the Lend-Lease Law, told Congress today that i've will help Great Britain to outstrip the Axis Powers in production of munitions of war and we will see that these munitions get to places where they can effectively be used to weaken and defeat the aggressors."
 The President made no mention of the methods to be used to insure delivery of the munitions of war.
 The report today was the Presi- dents first statement to the legis- lators on the progress of the gigan- tic program to supply arms to Great Britain, China and "other demo- cratic nations" under the Lend Lease authorization bill signed three months ago.
 How much of the $75,0O0, 900 worth of war munitions went to Great Britain and how much has been transferred to other nations was not indicated in the Presidents report.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1941-06-11

WASHINGTON-T There was very little optimism in the report which Ambassador Winant, back from Eng land, laid in the lap of the President. It was the story of heroic people putting up heroic battle, but also of a numbed people. now fighting automatically. How long they can continue fighting was the question
 So far no appeasement is evident with the man on the street in Lon don. One day he is depressed by the sinking of the Hood, next day he is buoyed up by the destruction of the Bismarck Through defeat after defeat he has kept his chin up. But now prospective withdrawal from the Mediterranean will be a stiff jolt-the stiffest jolt of all.
 Actually, the man on the street in London has not realized how bad the situation is. Actually the state of public opinion is brittle. It could break.
 Also. some of those at the top of the ladder-comparable to wealthy appeasers in the United States have revived feelers for negotiated peace. These are in a very, very small minority. But the seeds are planted, and in the soil Of con- tinued diversity, they can sprout.

WASHINGTON, June II Be- cause of the crush of sensational day-to-day news. practically noth- ing is heard about it. but govern ment officials are giving more and more attention to postwar eco- homie blueprints.
 AS yet there is no overall plan. But it crops up frequently in such Statements as "big government is here to stay"-"dont get the idea that defense jobs are temporary jobs'-and the remark of Philip Reed, priorities consultant, before the National Association of Manu- lecturers: T suspect the war will advance several decades the Twen- tieth Century trend away from laissez- faire and toward economic integration and industry-wide plan- ming under government supervis- ion"
 And almost every government department that is working on de- fense efforts is trying to match it's defense plans with a plan for an

 UNDER PROBE
Member of U. 5. Embassy Flying fo Interview
 Survivors of Ship

RIO DE JANEIRO, June II = A thorough investigation of the sink ing of the American freighter Robin Moor was ordered today as Phillip Williams, secretary of the U. s. Embassy here flew to Recife to obtain first hand testimony from the survivors of the destroyed Am erican ship.

 Official radios from Capt. Wall deman Lucio Pereira of the Bra zilian steamer Osorio, claimed a German U-boat torpedoed the Robin Moor in the South Atlantic on May 21 and he picked up a lifeboat containing survivors but that 38 aboard the craft were miss ing.
 When the Robin Moor sailed from New York there were eight passengers and crew of 38 officers and men aboard.

CAN BRITAIN HOLD TILL.
 SEPTEMBER?

Drawing all these together. the main question confronting the Unit ed States, as a result of Ambassador Winant's report, is how long Great Britain can hold out.
 Two things are obvious. One is that if she can hold out through September. then large-scale aid will be available from this country. Sec ond is that Hitler is determined that September will never come with England still at war.
 For Hitler. the war has got to be won now or not at all. The kill is just around the corner. and if he does not close in now, he knows all tco well that Germany faces a long
