that he had no personal desire for
the broad authority contemplated
in the legislation, but that it is
essential that such power be vested
in the hands of somebody in order
that speedy emergency action might
be taken whenever needed.
In this connection, he cited as an
instance of need for prompt action
a request for diversion of only few
military airplanes from one pre-
determined destination to diff
ferent one. The transfer, he went
on, was represented as being Of
greatest military Importance and
called for immediate arrangements
for changing plans to ship newly
manufactured planes.
Denies 1t Repeals johnson Act.
Questioned as to whether the new
program will involve only equipment
to be manufactured in the future,
the President said he expected this
to be SO per cent correct. At the
same time, he went on, a case might
arise where it would be decided to
turn over a small number of air.
planes or other fighting instruments
as of today and accept delivery from
our own plants in compensation
few weeks hence.
Mr.. Roosevelt said he would make
no request for congressional appro-
priations until authorizing legisla-
ton has been enacted. At the same
time, he said, he could not tell now
how much money might eventually
be involved. adding that some OF the
actual cash to cover authorizations
probably will not be needed for a
year or more.
The President denied that the new
legislation constitutes in effect re-
peal of the johnson Act prohibiting
loans to nations in default to this
Government.
"Other Laws" Provision.
Questioned further about phrase
in the bill to the effect that 1t is
operative Notwithstanding provisions
of any other law, the President said
it is a customary device intended to
forestan any conflict. In effect, he
said that it would mean that this
statute would supersede any prior
law in cases where there was conflict
on specific point.
Mr.. Roosevelt approved the legis-
lation down to the last comma in
lengthy conference with cabinet
members and congressional lieuten-
ants late yesterday.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, of
Montana, a foe of the administra-
tons international policies, predict
ed that "the opposition will be quite
formidable" and told reporters that
the Presidents "is a most fantastic
foreign policy for us to follow"
On the other hand, Senator Aus
tin, Republican, of Vermont, acting
Minority Leader, said Congress
should act on an aid-to- Britain pro-
gram at once.
The sooner we get started" he
said, "the better it will be for both
this country and Britain"
Senator johnson, Republican, of
California, like Senator Wheeler an
administration critic on foreign af-
fairs, said that, while he had not yet
met with colleagues who opposed
administration policy, he would be
glad to talk with like-minded
people"
Indications of Fight.
There were many indications that
Senators Wheeler. Clark, Democrat,
of Missouri and others would seek to
build q Senate organization to fight

Wheeler claimed recently that the
