possible internationai, developments,
a suggestion which tk strengthened!
-by the coincidence that the British

Help for Briiain Certain !
Putting these two facts and the!
president’s previous actions in lend
ing aid to Britain into one package,
some of the shrewdest guessers in
Washington wonder whether there
is not some deal afoot whjch would
amount to an actual alliance with j
Great Britain. I
The one thing upon which prac-1

be agreed is that the safety of the
United States from European ag
gression still depends in the first in
stance upon Britain’s strength as our
first line of defense, and the integ

way the election goes it can be re

more help will be given to Britain in
the way of war' materials and sup

about $1,000,000 a day of munitions
from private factories to England.
This includes about 300 planes a
month, which is about one-third of
out total airplane production.

There is strong pressure being
brought to transfer more materials

and most dangerous fighting planes
that have yet been built are so-
called “flying fortresses,” of the
