Senators Back
.26 Billion Navy
Supply Bill
Amendment Burs
Transfer Of Ships
Now in Service
BY ]. A. O'LEARY.

The Senate Appropriations
Committee unanimously ap-
proved today the largest supply
bill in history-$26, ,495, ,265, ,474
for upkeep and expansion Of the
Navy-with a last-minute change
restricting leasing of combat
ships to Americas allies.
The effect of the change is to pre-
vent leasing of any of the Navy's
present fighting ships, but to permit
such lease-lend transfers out of the
1,798 additional vessels for which
construction money is in this bill.
Senator Overton, Democrat, of
Louisiana, in charge Of the record
breaking measure, said he believed
the limitation will be satisfactory
to the Budget Bureau and the ad-
ministration.
In three days of deliberation the
Senators added more than $780,
000, 900 to the House total of approx
mately $l9, 900, 900 900. These figures
include contract authorizations as
we'll as cash.
The Senate bill is made up of $23,-
1913 1865, ,474 in cash, and $2,756, ,400, 900
in contract authority.
Most of the Senate increase in to-
tai is for the Air Force, and it was
estimated that as the bill now stands
it would give the Navy nearly 25.000
new planes by the end of the fiscal
year 1943.
Plane Goal Increased.
Testimony OF naval officials when
the bill was being drafted in the
House was that the Navy at that
time aimed to step up its plane out
put from 500 to $500 ships q week,
or $1,000 for the year. The Senate
increases have further stepped up
that goal.
As 1t goes to the Senate, the bill
carries approximately 5000 900 900
for aircraft and ordnance to arm
the planes, and about 5000 900 900
for for oontinu.ps o tts. tes construction OF
Senator Overton said he hopes to
call the bill up for passage In the
Senate Monday.
The big Navy bill is following
closely in the wake OF the $l2,500,-
000, 900 supplemental appropriation
voted few days ago by both houses
for the Army, most Of which was for
$4,000 new Army planes.
In addition to providing for an
all out construction program for
Americas own fighting forces, these
two bills together make available
about 5000, 100000 for lease-lend
aid to the United Nations. OF that
amount about $4,000, 900 900 is under
the Army, and $4,000, ,000,000 in this
Navy bill.
More Blimps Suggested.
The $4,000. .0OO, 900 lease-lend limi-
tation on the Navy is for defense
articles other than ships, and was
written in by the Senate Committee,
in lieu Of budget recommendation,
authorizing lease-lend aid out any
funds appropriated since last March.
Committee members pointed out
that. while ban was placed on the
leasing of existing ships, it would
always be possible to use them in
conjunction with an allied COM
mand, with the American crews on
board.
Asked If he thought this bill would
meet all Navy requirements for this
session of Congress, Senator Over
ton said that in a war of the present
magnitude no predictions could be
made. He expressed his own belief
that consideration might have to be
given to enlarging the Marine Corps
later, and suggested it night also be
advisable to provide the Navy with
more blimps for submarine patrol
work.
