Fears on Aid Bill. "NEW YORK, Jan. 18 (U. P).

—Former President Herbert Hoover |=

appealed to the House Foreign Affairs Committee today ‘to reassure “appreiensive

the war, but favored extension of

Writes Letter to Bloom

Mr. Hoover's appeal was made in|S a letter to Committee Chairman Sol |§

Bloom.

Mr. Hoover's letter to Mr, Bloom |S

said the committee, in the interest |=

of national unity, should define spe-

cific powers immediately to enable |S ‘concrete debate on’ the bill and |3

eliminate much controversy ‘and |:

bitterness.

“There is unfortunately" growing : E up in this country a bitterness of |S discussion which it seems to me in

the interest of national unity could |S be allayed by the committee,” Mr. Hoover said. j largely in the interpretations and |§ implications in respect to the powers | to be conferred in this bill. and its |Z meaning. -

“This division lies|3

“For example, citizens of high |S

patriotic thought and experience, who desire to support the President, | believe that under the bill and even |= without any supplemental action by |= the Congress: :

“That battleships and other naval :

vessels could be given away;

“That our defense could be vitally |=

impaired, by giving away army|= equipment; 2

. Can Alien Ships Be Seized? Ee “That equipment and materials |Z

provided in the bill could be trans-|% ported through the war zone in|= American ships convoyed by the |= American Navy; ° s

“That commodities and articles|S

" “That alien ships now in sanctu-|=

ary in our harbors could be seized;

could be purchased in other coun- = tries with our money;

“That it opens American ports to!S

repair. of belligerent vessels and

makes such- ports bases for belliger-

ent operations and may become the

objective of them;

~ “That the program of gifts to

Britain could begin before the very |= considerable resources now available |= to the British Government in the |S United States had been first called |=

upon as payment or collateral;

“That the bill could cancel parts :

of thy labor laws, the Johnson (Act, the Neutrality Acts, the Hague conventions and possibly other laws; “That it empowers involvement in |S war as distinguished from a declaration of war by the Congress.”: Mr. Hoover suggested ‘that if Committee drafted into the bjll posi-

tive definitions of what these powers|§

are and specifically exclude what they are not, it would contribute |& greatly to national unity.
