The Lend-LeaSe Report

TN ACCORDANCE with legal re
Il quirement, the President of the
United States transmitted to Con
gress on March IL of this year
report on the operations under the
lend lease act.
This is the fourteenth such report
by the President, and it brings the
information of the people on the
operations up to the end of 1913
It is very important information.
The lend lease operations consti-
tute war enterprise for which there
is no precedent in history, and which
no other nation than the United
States in all the history of the world
could have undertaken, however,
willing or whatever the necessity.
There has been total export of
American goods under the lend-lease
act accounting for the expenditure Of
more than fifteen billion dollars.
This is roughly the equivalent of
the TOTAL NATIONAL DEBT OF
THE UNITED STATES IN 1880.
But the total of expenditures un-
der lend lease already provided for
is an even more amazing figure.
THERE have been four direct APP
Il preparations for lend lease, sup
plemented by transfers of funds
authorized from other appropria-
tions, reaching the wholly incompre
hensible sum of nearly thirty six
billion dollars.
This is greater than the total
national debt of the United States IN
any year of American history prior
to 1873 f935T Z.
We fought the entire first World
War without ever having a national
debt in excess of twenty six billion
dollars.
What are the purposes Of this
tremendous expenditure, and partic.
ularly WHO ARE THE BENEFIT
CIARIES?
The purposes as defined by the
act itself are to "Iend, lease, trans
fer or sell, or OTHERWISE DIS
POSE OF" any defense articles to
any country Whose defense the
President deems vital to the defense
of the United States"
The beneficiaries are Of course the
countries which President Roosevelt
so empowered, has decided should be
defended in our interest and AT
OUR EXPENSE.

BEARD is alarmed as everybody ought to be.
- He says:
There is something fundamental, wrong and
irresponsible in a legislative and an executive de-
partment which cannot settle such question on
the basis of positive knowledge within II hours"
Prof Beard is dumbfounded at such situa-
ton in view of the fact that the American people
have as he says, within the past p years Wit
messed the destruction of civil liberties and the col
lapse Of popular governments far and wide over
the surface of the earth :.
They have seen great nations ST RREN-
DER TO DEMAGOGUES prepared to promise
them peace action and security.
In amazement, Prof. Beard asks:
us it possible that the American people actu-
ally regard themselves as utterly and forever
immune to the calamties which have marked the
march of despotsm in Europe and Asia"
Prof Beard thinks our government needs

Il tereStlHg to note that the Coun-
tries the President has put foremost
among those to be defended in our
interest and at our expense are NOT
primarily engaged in the Pacific war
which is OUR most important and
most difficult and most menacing
war.
The country which we have thus
defended at the second highest cost,
in fact Soviet Russia-ls not even
IN the Pacific war
The country which we have de-
Tended at the highest cost of all
Great Britain-is primarily occupied
with the European war, and it re-
mains to be seen how effectively
Britain will ultimately participate in
the Pacific war.
BY contrast, our lend lease aid to
China, which has been FIGHTING
Japan for more than six years, totals
only slightly more than ONE FIFTH
of one billion dollars.
Our total lend lease aid to China,
India, Australia and New Zealand
all of which are wholly engaged in
the Pacific war-has been less than
two billion dollars; roughly HALF
as much as our aid to Soviet Russia,
and THIRD as much as our aid to
Great Britain
is IT not strange that President
L Roosevelt has deemed" it so
important to defend countries which
are not helping us at present against
our mortal enemy and may not help
usat all, and deems it so unimportant
to defend countries to which Japan
is a mortal enemy as much as 1t is
to us?
1t was wise Of Congress to require
the President to report on lend lease
operations.
But would it not have been wiser
of Congress to have made sure that
the lend lease operations would be
conducted with more regard for
AMERICAN defense, and more UNI
derstanding of American DANGER
and more acceptance and exercise Of
American RESPONSIBILITY?
Our information about lend lease
is interesting and significant.
Our still largely unfought and
still largely unprovided for war in
the Pacific is revealed in the light
of that information TO be challenge

MIR. HUGHES:


IF wealth is to he created by creation of gov
eminent Debts the scope of government enterprise
must be largely increased.
"The government will have to go into direct
financing of activities now supposed to be private
and the government will gradually come to
OWN most of the production plants in the United
States"
YOU can read the words quoted in Lawrence
Sullivans new and terrifying book, Bureau
cracy Runs Amuck.'
You can read there multitude OF, other things
that will explain why. at least, Congress is fight
ing to get back its rights and It's duties and why
the election returns show everywhere such a COM
plete turn of the tide of public opinion back to
sanity and free enterprise.

GOVERNMENT TREATED THE LEGISLA-
TIVE BODIES WAS FOR SO LONG UNRE-
SISTED THAT 1T BECAME A HABIT
A criticism of government recklessness with
money was ignored, or ooh-poohed, or justified as
help for the needy taken from the greedy, on as
contributions to winning the love of neighborS.
And so when, some months ago, Senator Hugh
A. Butler of Nebraska toured Spanish America at
his own expense and came back with the state
ment that our government had actually thrown
SIX BILLION DOLLARS into the southern ma
tons, he was greeted with roars of official laugh
ter andhis charges were called "groesquely false
NELSON ROCKEFELLER and Senator Nickel
~ lar Indignantly announced that the total
amount spent was only the third of one billion.
And, of course, anything less than whole
billion does not ciink rUhen it is plunked on
the counter.
Senator Butler disappeared from view, but he
bobbed up again with the exact figures certified by
public accountants proving that what we had
spent and what we were committed to spend made
total of five billion 733 million dollars. NO FUR
THEIR DENIALS WERE ISSUED.
Senator Mcclellan merely whispered that it
was shame to stir up the matter since it was
likely to mar the sweet chimes of the good neigh
Dor policy.
You ought to buy lot of neighbors for six
billion dollars; but hoU good they'd be tgoud be
question.
As usual the administration was willing to
drop the whole subject, but in the latest issue of
the progressive magazine, the eminent historian,
Charles A. Beard revives it.
He expresses his Amusement, his cOnsterna-
ton at the spectacle of our once republican gov
eminent being reduced to such state that=the=
Senate could be kept in IGNORANCE of matter
of six billion dollars.
He quotes the Constitutions explicit words:
NO money shall be drawn from the treasury
but in consequence of appropriation made by law;
and regular statement and account of the re-
ceipts and expenditures of all public money shall
be published from time to time.

The FIRE ct Hartford, Conn, was

In 194l, toward the seasons end
the elephant herd became Ill one

feverishly to determine what allied

turned up his hooves and died.
The circus went from town to
town and more and more elephants
became sick until 10 had died. The
vets suspected arsenic poisoning and
called police who finally tracked
down the culprit, former employe
seeking revenge because he had
been fired.
The following year tragedy again
struck the menagerie.
Fire broke out in q subsidiary
