THURSDAY, NOV. a VOTERS SPLIT ON REPEAL OF JOHNSON LA
Gallup Poll Shows More Backing for Increased Loans to Britain.
/ PRINCETON, N. Ji, Nov. 21—A few weeks before the Nov. 5 election Senator King (D. Utah) made frontpage headlines with a! proposal to repeal the Johnson Act and clear the way for U. S. Government loans to Britain. Neither the {Democrats nor the Republicans| would touch the issue during the campaign, however, | Some |indication of the close division, of | American sentiment on this issué is revealed today in a nationwide survey by . the [American Institute of Public Opinion. The results make it appear to have been [good political strategy—at least—for the major parties to avoid this particular issue in the Presidentidl campaign. The survey shows [that a small majority favor making it possible for
AMERICAN INSTITUTE
PUBLIC/OPINION
Britain to borrow here—even to the|
‘point of repealing the Johnson Act. Some indication of the public’s attitude can be found in the answers of a cross-section of American voters to the following question: “The Johnson Act | prevents -any country ‘which has stopped paying interest on its debt of the last World War from borrowing money in the United States.” Would you approve of changing this law so that England could borrow money from our Government?”
Majority Back | Repeal
Those with definite opinions on the question answered Favor Changing Act Opposed to Changing
An average of one poter in eight said he was undecided or without an opinion. Democrats interviewed were more in favor of Johnson| Act repeal (60% in favor) than were Republicans (47% in fayor). That there has been some shift of opinion on the whole question of loans to Britain since last spring is indicated, however. When the same question was put to voters at the end of May 65 per
cent said “no” to any change in|}
the Johnson Act. Only 35 per cent
were in favor of clearing the way
for British loans. It is safe to say that more Americans look with sympathy toward such loans today than six months ago. Recall Unpaid Loans
Time and again voters recalled the United States’ experience with unpaid World War loans, On the other side, however, voters favoring loans to Britain stood on the grounds that "England's our first line [of defense: we can give them dollars if we don’t give them men.” Economists themselves are in disagreement on this| latter point. In the last war the Aliles borrowed large sums here, but did
not liquidate vast capital reserves held by British citizens in other] parts of the world. Some financial | experts, including Segretary of the| Treasury Morgenthau, have in the | past held that Birtish capital reserves are great enough.
ROOF OVER HOUSE HELD DANGEROUS
WASHINGTON, Noy. 21 (U. P.) — Rep. Louis Rabaut (DJ Mich.), today warned members that the House chamber “is actually dangerous” because the 80-year-gld roof needs repairs. Rep. George Bender (R. O.), said that if this were correct the House sheuld meet in some| other place until repairs were made. Speaker Sam Rayburn said temporary repairs would take five. weeks. The caucus room in| Office Building has heen suggested as an interim meeting place,

STYLIST NEXT ON TOWN HALL
Refugee From France Will Discuss Fashions of Current Era.
Madame Elsa Schiaparelli, who fled France following the Nazi occupation, will speak in the Town Hall series at English’s Theater at 11 a. m, Saturday.
A world famous couturiere, Madame Schiaparelli will discuss the fashions of today. She believes in simple lines and stark neatness. In a recent interview she said: “In the building of a basic
wardrobe we]
cannot go wrong if we strive for simplicity and perfect fitting. It is much wiser to insist on good materials, straight lines, neatness, and, if you effect a saving, to spend the difference on ac-
Madame Schiaparelli
cessories.” Mrs. Elizabeth Patrick will introduce the speaker and will be hostess for the luncheon to follow the talk at the Columbia Club. Guests at the luncheon will include Miss Margery Henry from Marshall Fields, Chicago, and Mrs. Henry Burnham of Altman's, New York.
Just Stop, Let _ Life Catch Up
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Nov. 21 (U. P.).—Don't blame that tired feeling on your job because, about nine times out of ten, it isn’t responsible. Dr. Walter C. Alvarez, nerve specialist at the Mayo Clinic at Rochester, Minn., said today that usually the man who blamed his fatigue on his boss had nothing wrong except that he was traveling at too fast a gait for his own good. Such men, Dr. Alvarez said, would find life much more pleasant if they'd stop long enough to let life catch up with them. A lot of nerve patients, he said, can be cured if they are given an allowance of $150 a month.
