tain the best use of shipping and,
at the same time, to avoid COM
mitments which will require the use
of shipping needed for the war
effort.
1t is not my intent that this COM
mlttee should assume the RESPONSE
bility for ALLEGATION of materials now
vested in the Requirements Com
mittee of the War Production
Board, or in the Food Requirements
Committee of the War Food Ad-
ministration. However. the recon-
mendations from these sources will
come before the committee for
evaluation and consideration in
relation to transportation, our own
civilian economy, and such other
factors as warrant consideration.
The armed services must still re-
tain the responsibility for deter
mining their needs in the wake of
battle. However, their requirements
and their shipments for this purpose
will be made available to the COM
mittee for consideration in connec-
ton with other proposed shipments.
OF course. any requirements for
civilian purposes extending beyond
the wake Of battle. which are vested
in the War Department, are to be
placed before the committee.

tent Of aid which will be required
after that date. It's recommends
tons should include any legislative
measures which may be- required.
It must be recognized that aid in
occupied enemy countries may be
provided under existing law only to
the extent required +, the wake OF
battle.
AL other requirements for relief,
rehabilitation. and other export
purposes must then be evaluated
against our own minimum essential
civilian economy. Our foreign COM
mitments must not be allowed to
disrupt our own economy to such
an extent that its capabilities to
meet its own needs as we'll as the
needs Of others will be reduced.
This must include consideration Of
our own reconversion needs after
the defeat OF Germany.
Commitments in Past.
/ believe it essential that, as
chairman of the committee, you
establish central information Of
Ace, which maintains a complete
record Of all commitments which
either have been made by the
United States or are under consid-
GRAFTON, other than direct military
lease LEND.
Consideration must be given i'm
mediately to commitments which
were made in the past but which
now appear capable of fulflment
only with serious impact on our
civilian economy, as it may be
necessary to reconsider these COM
mitments with the countries to
which they have been made.
1t is to be understood that no
agency of the Government may
enter into formal or informal COM
mltments for the export of supplies
other than for essential military
purposes such as direct military
lease-lend and supplies in the wake
OF battle, to foreign countries, with
out first receiving the approval of
this committee.
