Would Speed Fight on
GuIf Subs, Senator Says

BY the Associated Press.
Chairman Connally of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee said
today the United States should take
immediate steps to implement the
good neighbor policy by providing
any needed arms for Mexico.
"Of course, we'll be glad to help
Mexico in all proper ways" Senator
Connally told reporters. I'VE should
give her arms, and help in every
way we can without impairing our
own war effort"
Senator Connally spoke particu-
larly of providing what planes and
small naval craft we can spare" for
the campaign against submarines
in the Gulf, where participation of
.the new belligerent might be of
much value.
The Foreign Relations chairman
saw more bad news for the Axis
in MeXico's declaration and in
Brazil's shoot-on-sight reaction to
U-boat sinkings, which he said
might have as great an effect III
Latin America as Mexico's declared
belligerency.
With a formal Mexican declara-
ton, II of the 81 American re-
publics will be aligned in war against
the Axis. In addition to the United
States, war has been declared by
Costa Rica, Cuba. Guatemala,
Panama, Haiti, the Dominican Re-
public. Nicaragua, El Salvador and

nations have broken off diplomatic
relations-Brazil, Paraguay, Uru-
quay, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Ven-

La Toilette 10 Seek
Test Vote in Senate
On $50 Soldiers Pay
July ! Seen Earliest
Dote for Boost With
Conference Deadlock
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A campaign was started today to
force a new Senate vote on raising
privates' pay from the $42 figure
Senators previously voted to the $50
month approved by the House.
With a conference committee ap-
parertly deadlocked in efforts to
compromise the So difference, Sena-
tor La Toilette, Progressive, of Wis
consin said that If action was not
forthcoming quickly he would seek
a quick test vote.
This anticipated pay raise al
ready has been delayed under terms
of the bill until July l at the ear
liest," Senator La Toilette said, "and
it would be grave injustice to deny
the relatively small increase to the
soldiers any longer.
Il am strongly in favor of the
House provision for $50 a month
and unless the Conference Commit
tee acts shortly, I shall resort to
any proper parliamentary measure
to force the issue before the Sen
ate"
This could be done by moving to
discharge the Conference Commit
tee while it considered the bill and
Senator La Toilette intimated he
might attempt such a maneuver.
Adoption of a motion Of this nature
would bring the bill back before the
Senate, paving the way for sponsors
to move to instruct conferees TO
accept the $50 House figure.
AS approved by both Houses, the
proposed pay increases would not
become effective until the first day
of the month following enactment.
House conferees were reported
yesterday to have voted to for
the $50 figure and Senators voted
3 to l for $42.
