Churchill Will Back
Efforts 10 Ease Loan
By the Asseeioted Press

WOODSTOCK, Eng. Aug. A.
Winston Churchill pledged today
that his Conservative Party would
back any efforts Of the Labor gov
ernment to obtain easements" of
the swiftly disappearing s3.75o 000.-
900 United States loan and to obtein
new American credits.
Mr.. Churchill, In party speech,
said some of the loan conditions
alarmed" him. particularly the
clause ohligating Great Britain to
make current sterling transactions
by British customers freely convert
ible into dollars.
However, I relied. and rely now
on the wisdom of the fair minded
American people to make the neces-
sary easements. without which a
policy for which they have made
heavy sacrifices will certainly fail
in its effects" the wartime prime
minister said.
There is no shame in one brave
and faithful ally, deeply injured in
the common struggle, asking another
to help him recover and stand upon
his feet. Had the positions been
reversed. We would have done the
same for them.
Therefore, I supported the Amer
ican loan and I will still support
and justify other appeals to the
United States, provided that we are
doing our best, that we are making
the most of our resources, that we
are determined to become a self
supporting nation and system at
the earliest moment and will put
aside every impeachment, and labor
