ALLEGATIONS Studied.

CLEVELAND, June 80 (P).-Daily
Metal Trade reported today heavy
allocations of lend-lease material
for third quarter hold the center
of attention in steel circles.
Tonnage prorated to the mills
is a sharp increase over previous
months, and because it is mostly
semi-finished, spells more hardship
for steelmakers who have been hard
pressed to keep finishing facilities
In some products economically oc-
cupied," the trade publication said
Although allocations are definite
specifications have not come
through at some points, and with
rolling schedules frozen two weeks
in advance, it appears this new
lend-lease tonnage cannot be in
cluded before mid-July. In some
quarters it is thought some semi
finished steel may be respected to
finished steel mills before too much
time is lost, in which event the mills
will be able to utilize their finish
ing capacity to better advantage"

Portuguese Official Lauds
Tact of British at Dover
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LISBON, Feb. 18.-Col. Lello Por-
tella of the Portuguese general staff
said yesterday the British Admir-
atty demonstrated great tact in let
ting the German feet go through
the straits into the North Sea" and
very ably evaded" a German trap.
Col. Portella, who writes military
comment for the Catholic newspaper
A Voz, said in yesterdays article
that the Scharnhorst, Gneisenau
and Prinz Eugen probably were use
less in Brest harbor and the Ger
mans decided to use them to trap
the British home feet into battle.
If the home fleet had come out
for battle, "it would have faced an
unexpected, brutal air attack which
might definitely jeopardize its power,
while if the German ships were sunk
the loss would be only partial since
these battleships probably will not
be in condition for action until after
complete, lengthy repairs" the colo
mel wrote.
He added the German fleet went
back home" where it may be bottled
up now as during World War I.
Prime Minister Churchill in his
statement to the House of Commons
yesterday on the escape of the Nazi
warships said that Britain had bene-
fitted from their removal from Brest,
Occupied France, to a German base
in that the vessels had been severely
damaged en- route and will require
extensive repairs before they can
put to sea again.

Brazil Guarding Interests; :;
War Declaration Doubted

RIO DE JANEIRO, Feb. 10 [P.-
Government officials said today
Brazil was taking steps Ito safe
guard her national interests" as a
result of the German submarine
sinking of the Brazilian steamer
Buarque of the United States
East Coast, and recalled that such
sinkings during the World War
brought Brazil into the conflict
against Germany.
These sources expressed the per-
sonal belief, however. that at least
for the present Brazil would not
declare war on the Axis.
One official said the governments
action would depend partly on
whether Chile broke relations with
the Axis, thus making a solid South
American front except for Argen-
tina.
Government announcement of the
sinking, delayed until noon because
Of carnival celebrations, said only
that the necessary steps" are be-
ing taken ito clarity the occurrence
in order to safeguard national in
terests"
An unofhcial but unusually we'll
informed source predicted that some
form of reprisals probably would be
taken against Axis firms in Brazil.
The fact that Brazil already has
broken off relations with the Axis
was seen as possibly delaying any
immediate action, although a formal
protest might be lodged, since the
government long ago declared that
it would not sanction belligerent at
tacks on neutral vessels.

NEW YORK, Feb. 18.-The old
Marco Polo road, which winds be-
tween the deserts of Mongolia and
the SHOWS of Tibet to Turkestan, in
Soviet Russia, may be used to trans
port American aid to China If the
now-threatened Burma road Is sew

'"The Chinese government has
established diplomatic relations with
Iran" and is also negotiating with
Iraq. he said. "The conveys of
lease lend material may still be sent
across the South Atlantic and Af-
rica to Iran and Iraq. They may
then transship by rail up through
Russia and across Siberia to the
Chinese northwest border, over 1000
miles from Chungking."
This so-called Red route" by way
of Lanchow. in the far northwestern
provinces of Kansu and Sinkiang,
has been so much improved since
the beginning of the Japanese in
vasion that motor caravans use it
regularly.
It probably is the most readily
available route that China could use,
despite the vast distances. and be-
cause of the difnculty OF shipment

Speak at Ceremonies
Before Statue of
Temperance Leader

Senators O'Daniel of Texas and
johnson of Colorado joined in me-
mortal services yesterday for Fran
ces E. Willard. temperance leader,
at her statue in Statuary Hall of the
Capitol.
Senator ODaniel said that taking
time in confused. war-torn

ering light of hope for the purer
and better things in life has not
been completely extinguished." The

n,ent that while we pay tribute to
the memory of this great and good
woman it is fitting and proper that
we also commend the other fine and
noble women who are carrying on
this great work. and may God bless
and help. them in their sincere
efforts
Senator johnson said that when
the forces of oppression and brutal
ity are sweeping through the world
it was a comfort to recall her philos-
ophy, which was so opposed to brute
force. He expressed the hope that
humanity would go back to her be-
lief in the brotherhood of mankind.
Both members of Congress were
introduced by Miss Elizabeth Smart,
national legislative director of the
Womens Christian Temperance
Union. Presiding over the meeting
was Mrs. Ida Ramsey, local w. c.
T. U. president. Mrs. Ramsey and
Mrs. Clifford Hurley, corresponding

form Federation, also spoke. The
invocation and benediction were
given by the Rev Samuel E. Rose
