Testifying before the house for
eign affairs committee, Knudsen was
asked by Rep Edith N. Rogers, R..
Mass, how long it would take after
enactment of the bill to produce
defense materials in quantity
sufficient to be helpful to Britain.
1--WE will not be able to get any
great amount until the latter part
of 1871 unless we take the pro-
duction out of our existing faciii-
ties Knudsen answered.
Mrs. Rogers then wanted to know
if the U. S. should require ear
marked collateral" as security for
any aid given Britain.
I'm not in the finance business"
Knudsen said. MY business is to
make things. I have to depend
upon the people in charge of that
financing) to do what is right.
think the things should be made
When Mrs. Fsogers suggested that
the British be asked to put up tin,
rubber, aluminium and such ma
terials as collateral, Knudsen said
he didn't know whether England
has those things" He observed
that "it would be nice to have
collateral, but aren't we little
beyond that?"
When Mrs. Rogers asked whether
the pending bill meant that this
country is seeking to police the
world, Knudsen disagreed.
Whatever we make we make
for the protection of our country"
he said, whether we do it directly or
indirectly. I don't think we are
policing the world I think We are
just taking care of ourselves"
He said he did not have enough"
estimates of the quantities of war
materials Britain would require to
give an estimate of the probable
cost of the bill. He told the COM
mittee the defense commission has
had good cooperatin from labor,
the war and navy departments, and
congress, in the defense program.
He admitted to Rep Robert Chip
perfield, r., ILL.,, that the bills OBJ
iectives might be achieved through
repeal of the Johnson and neutral
ity acts.
"Of course we could do that" he
said. but would we be better off
doing it?'
