have become In these years Of war
those of = personal friendship and
regard, and nothing will ever hap
pen to separate us in the comrade-
ship and partnership Of thought
and action while we remain respon-
sible for the conduct of affairs. The
reason why I have not to make a
longer speech today is that I have
already given to the joint sessions
of the Congress of the United States
the statement which I should have
made to this House on the victories
in Tunisia had been in this coun-
try. That, I think, is the valid ex-
PLANTATION.
Certainly when I found myself
walking into that august assembly,
the free Congress of the most pow
erful community in the world, and
when 1 gave them, exactly as 1
would do in this house, q business
like taking survey of the war
and of our joint interests, even
touching upon controversial matters
or matters of domestic controversy
over there, and when thought of
our common history and of the
hopes that lie before us. felt this
was an age of memorable impor-
tance to mankind.
For there can be no doubt that
whatever world organization is
brought into being after this war,
that organization must be richer
and stronger If it is founded on the
fraternal relations and the deep
understanding prevailing and now
growing between the British Com
monwealth OF Nations and the
United States.
I have one thing more to say be-
fore sitting down. must acknowl-
edge with gratitude the extraordi-
nary kindness with which I have
been treated both by the House and
out of doors throughout the land.
And that is very great help in
these days Of continuing crises and
storm.
Let me in return record the fact
| that this House is a democratic in
stitution founded upon universal
suffrage. house which has pre-
served it's function and authority
intact and undiminished during the
war and has shown it can change,
correct and sustain governments
with equal consistency of purpose
1t has proved itself a foundation
and an instrument for the waging OF
successful war and for the safety of
the state, never surpassed in mod
ern or ancient times.

iOrmS.
I can assure the House that the
most complete concord and conf
dence prevails at Gen. Eisenhower's
headquarters and the forces of the
two great nations of the English
speaking world are working together
literally AS If they were one single
army.
1 was told by the officers Of both
countries that in the movement of
troops or the distribution of supplies
no questions Of national origin arise
between the staff officers who are
lnterleaved at every stage and tier
of the vast organiztion.
1t is just question of what is the
best thing to do-that and no more.
The commanders are men in the
fuH tide of successful experiment.,
They are proud of the troops they
lead and are resolute on the plans
they have made.

in this Africa war and to become

command in the war direction. This
Is also true of the more numerous
and powerful forces-British, Cana
dian and American-which have
formed and are forming in the
United Kingdom.
1t is evident that amphibious op-
erations of a peculiar complexity
and hazard on a large scale are ap-
preaching.
I can give no guarantee any more
than I have done in the past of what
will happen. I am sorry that a few
days ago in the press of travel and
affairs I let slip the expression bril-
liant prospects lie before U.S." 1
would prefer to substitute the words
brighter and solid prospects lie be-
fore U.S."
That, I think, would be more ap-
propriate and becoming in such anx-
ious days.
Yet all the same have good hopes
that neither Parliament nor the
Congress of the United States will
find themselves i'll served by their
forces, whether in the British Isles
or on the African shore.
At any rate I can assure the
House that on neither side, British
nor American, have any narrow or
selfish motives entered into the
common task. The rest I must leave
to action and to the march OF events.
British Losses in Tunisia
Described as Severe.
When I visited Tripolitania in
January had the pleasure of see
ing the troops of the 9th Army,
whom I had met beforehand in the
now far-off Ell Alamein position be-
fore their victory and marvellous
advance across the desert.
I was particularly glad on this
last occasion to meet the men of the
lst Army, who, after a very hard
time in the rainy winter, have come
into their own and who had the
honor, with their comrades of the
"a United States Army Corps, of
striking the final blow.
The British losses in Tunisia have
been severe.
The 9Th Army since they crossed
the frontier of Tripolitania have
sustained about II 500 casualties and
the lSt Army about % 500 casualties.
In all, $4,000 were killed, missing
and wounded during the campaign
OF the two British armies.
The total number of prisoners
taken who have passed through the
cages OF the Allies now amounts to
more than 248,000-an increase of
$4,000 on the previous published
total.
There must certainly have been
10000 OF enemy killed, making a
total loss of about 100000 men to
the enemy since Tunisia alone.
More than half of these men are
Germans.
In fact, of $1,000 prisoners taken
by the United States I'd Corps, ac-
tually it was more of the size of anv
army than corps, $4,000 were Ger
mans.
The French 10Th Corps also led
tens of thousands of Germans and
Italians captives to the rear and
must have felt after all their coun-
try had gone through that they were
once again reliving the great DAYS
OF F'och and Clemenceau.
All this takes no account of. the

 Several Republicans attacked the two bills at the hearing, including Rep. Joseph W. Spencer, R., Vest brook, who said the proposed grant of war powers was unconstitutional and void" and Sen. Robert E. Par sons, R., Pennington, who said he didn't think the war cabinet was of vital necessity.
 Seven Democratic legislators op. posed the two bills at the hearing.
 Meantime, Frank A. Dorarl, Democratic representative from Danbury, was sworn in after a con- test against his seating was dropped. Rep. Doran's election was challenged by Republicans because of an alleged misuse of absentee ballots.

AFRICAN SUPPLY
 PROBLEM CRITICAL

London, Jan. 13.-(UP)-Alexan- der Kerr, American member of an economic mission who has just re- turned from AlgierS, revealed today that a reciprocal trading program had been opened between North Africa and Britain and the United States to relieve the critical North African supply situation.
 Coal shipments from Britain al- ready have arrived at North African ports. and were being shuttled quickly into the country, so iron and phosphate mines may be reopened for Allied use, he said.
 In return, the French have ship ped iron ore and cork to the United States, and oranges, dates and phos- phate to Britain.
 Lack of shipping has restricted the program, Kerr said, but every effort was being made to obtain ves- sels so the French can be supplied with necessities, such as cotton tex tiles, flour, sugar, coal and machin- cry.
