LCND-LEASE DATA
 GIVEN CONGRESS

Washington, Feb. 20 - tU.P) - Congress was told today that the United States has poured $35 ,382,- 100000 into the war machines of it's Allies in little less than four years of lend-lease operations.
 But despite this steady flow of aid to other nations, the foreign econo- mic administration said in it's 18th quarterly lend-lease report, Amer jeans have been deprived of only small percentages of such hard-to- get commodities as meats, butter and cigarets. All lend-lease butter has gone to Russia and represents only four per cent of the total U. s. supply.
 For every cigarette shipped under lend-lease in 1914. Americans at home smoked 55 while 26 were sent to American forces overseas. Lend leases importance as a cause of do- mestic shortages has been greatly overstated in numerous false rum- ors'', TEA said.
 The report showed that from March II, 1941, when lend-lease be- gan, until the end of 1944 the United States provided the Allies with $31,- 4l0,000,000 in gods and $3,972, 900, 900 in services.
