to insure speedier victory ove In apparent reference to lend-lease could not be halted after the war in Europe ends, Mr. Roosevelt warned in his 16th report to congress: “We should not permit any weakening of this system of combined war supply to delay. final victory a single day or to cost unnecessarily the life of one American boy.” The present lend-lease law ox pires June 30, 1945, unless terminated sooner by congress. The National Association of Manufacturers said recently that the British had suggested its extension after the German defeat to help Britain rehabilitate her domestic economy and make possible greater contribution to the war against Japan. The state department, however, said no direct negotiations have been made on the
subject. Report Listed

set up an eight-man board to administer an estimated $100,000,000,- | ¥ 000 worth of surplus war goods.
