Shipment!
To Russia Won't Be
Affected for Present
Ey the Associated Press.


A review of the entire lease
lend program, including Russia's s
part in it, is under way as a
result of victory in Europe.
But for the present at least, ship
ments to the Soviet are unaffected.
Russian bound vessels at sea, those
loaded and ready to depart and
those In process of loading will
complete their voyage.
High Government officials In a
position to know made that clear to-
day in amplifying statement from
Foreign Economic Administrator Leo
T. Crowley.
Announcing a REORGANIZATION and
review" of lease-lend Saturday
night, Mr.. Crowley said that pend
ing its completion, new shipments to
Europe are being held up except
those distined to countries now at
war with Japan, or to countries
through which redeployment of our
troops now in Europe will be facili-
tated thereby"
Although Russia Is not at war with
Japan, a half million japanese
troops who otherwise could be
hurled against the Pacific Allies are
on duty on the Soviet-Manchurian
border.
The weight to be given that fact
in determining future lease-lerd
commitments to Russia undoubtedly
is one phase of the review, made
necessary by congressional restric-
tions on the mutual aid program.
These specify that lease-lend as
sistance is to be given only those
countries contributing to victory and
is not to be used for postwar reha-
bilitation.
Mr.. Crowley emphasized this in
his announcement.
Accordingly. 1t is necessary" he
said, Ito review lease-lend programs
so that American resources will be
distributed in such way as to
make the utmost possible contribu-
ton to victory in the major war
which we have still to win"
No Slap at Soviet Intended.
Observers were warned against
concluding that Mr.. Crowley's an
nouncement intended any slap at
Russia" and advised that the ban
against new shipments to Europe"
concerns solely an end to the supply
stream directed against now-de-
feated Germany.
Ofhcials directly concerned said
any squeeze on Russia was Incl
dental. and part of a reorientation
Of lend-lease inevitable with the
end Of German fighting.
Although reluctant to discuss fu-
ture shipments to Russia, officials
said that even before final victory
in Europe the British lease lend
program was being curtailed. Fur
ther cuts are inevitable, they said,
despite the fact England is fighting
Japan.
More Help for China.
China now will loom larger as a
recipient of greater help, they as
serted.
Representative De Lacy. Demo-
crat, of Washington said at Seattle
over the week end that Puget Sound
ports have been asked to load more
Soviet ships during the next few
months than they probably can
handle.
Mr.. Crowley reported, meanwhile,
that approximately s12 1900 900 worth
of lease-lend foodstuffs and medi-
cine have been sent to Belgium re-
Gently to help increase her war
production.
He said Belgium's reverse lease
lend materials to United States
armed forces far surpassed in guam
tity and dollar value the direct
lease lend aid this country has
given her. The Army estimates Bel
gums contributions through last
February at $4,000, 900, Mr.. Crowley
said.

Big Three Advisers
Move Toward Potsdom

LONDON, July IA [P.-Advisers
to the Big Three moved toward
Potsdam today for the opening OF
the conference next week of Presi-
dent Truman, Prime Minister
Churchill and Premier Stain.
Admiral Ernest ]. King, en- route
10 Potsdam by plane, passed through
Paris, where he conferred with Vice
Admiral Robert Lee Ghormley,
naval chief of the American occu-
patton forces.
Indicating that the question of
future Soviet Turkish relations
would have high place on the
sgenda at Potsdam, Foreign Secre-
tary Anthony Eden met a second
time with Turkish Foreign Minister
Hasan Saka.
United States Ambassador w. Az
erell Hartman was en- route to
Potsdam from Moscow.
In an editorial, the London Times
cited recent incidents at Trieste,
Greece and the Middle East, and
suggested that ut would be an i'm
portant step forward if the Big
Three could establish at PotSdam
the principle that all of these issues
are suitable for common consulta-
tion and action, rather than for
Isolated action by one power in a
zone where its interests are pre-
dominantly at stake"
President Truman is scheduled to
land at Antwerp tomorrow from the
cruiser Augusta and proceed by
plane to Potsdam. Mr. Churchill
will end his vacation at Hendaye
over the week end Premier Stain
suspended o-week-old talks with
Chinese Premier T. v. Soong to
prepare for the conference.

Bail Asked for Woman
Held in Insurance Death

b. the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, July 14.-Attor-
ney Raymond Pace Alexander said
yesterday he will seek the release
in bail of Mrs. Joseph Sadita, 43, who
is being held here on murder charges
in the death of Pietro Pirolli, SO.
The woman surrendered Thurs
day to authorities after being sought
seven years. She was one of "a per-
sons indicted in 1899 in connection
with insurance Sayings OF more
than 100 persons, County Detective
Walter Coyne said.
Mr.. Alexander said Mrs. Sadita,
now in Moyamensing Prison, is "suf-
fering from a malady" and that he
would petition for her release so
that she may undergo an operation.
She left Philadelphia in 1888 and
spent the first several years wan
dering about the country, he said.
During recent years she had been
employed on farm in Virginia, Mr..
Alexander said. He explained he did
not know the farms location and
added that 1t probably would be dis
closed at the trial

ly for what he believes to be the
best interest of the farmer.
Speaking of votes for Washington,
he said he had been champion Of
the cause ever since he came to the
Senate. Author of the pending Sum-
ner-Cappers joint resolution to au-
thorize national representation for
Washington, he declared:
ut is a shame that the capital of
this great democracy should be de-
prived of voice In government. No
other great capital of the world
treats its citizens that way. The
servicemen from the District of
Columbia are the only fighting men
from America in this war who have
no votes at home, for the Govern
ment of their own country. 1t Is
simply impossible"
The Senator was to be honored at
luncheon in a special dining room
at the Capitol, with many guests,
including the Kansas delegation In
Congress, and their private secre-
taries. There was to be birthday
cake and flowers. Congratulatory
messages poured into his office by
telephone, telegraph and mail.

81 don't feel over So" said gray
haired Senator Arthur Capper, Re-
publican, of Kansas. Yet he cele-
brates today his Both birthday an
niversary, and will be roundly feted
and congratulated by hosts of
friends.
I've been treated pretty well, y
declared the Spry, slender, wealthy
publisher of several newspapers and
magazines, from Topeka, Kans. He
rose from the job of typesetter on
one of the papers he now owns.
Altogether, his publications have a
total circulation of more than
1000 900.
1--WE had good health, good
friends" he said in an interview in
his Office. II haven't a thing in the
world TO complain about"
The perpetual champion of votes
for the District, who also has been
a champion of the farmer, and the
common man, looked around his
office. 1t is filled with mementos
of many years as a Senator from his
beloved home State. He gaZed on
them fondly. His desk. piled high
with papers, showed he still is an
avid reader.
Drinks Nothing But Water.
Pointing to a bottle of special
spring water on his desk, he said:
Il never drink anything stronger
than that"
He likes the queer looking "jayhawk
bird" on shelf. Bright-colored, odd
shaped with big beak, the bird, ne
explained, is the mythical symbol,
adopted humorously, but with pride
by his native State of Kansas
Kansans were called "jayhawkers"
in derision, he explained, but they
made joke out Of it, and so like
this bird Besides, he added with a
chuckle, "Jayhawk" is the name of
the hotel in Topeka-the best hotel
in the State capital-which is his
home there. Here, Senator Capper
