Secretary Cut Trade to ‘Trickle.’
WASHINGTON, May 14 (U. P).—/
000,000 to: Great Britain would slow post-war trade between Britain and the United States to a “mere trickle.” Mr. Vinson, - launching .the administration’s fight for loan approval in the house, told the banking committee that the loan “is an essential part of our whole program of international co-operation.” “How we meet these problems will determine in large part whether the United States and the world will again go through devastating cycles of war and depression or whether at long last we realize the hope for peace and prosperity,” Mr. Vinson said. : Points to Use of Sterling He pointed out that during the war, the British dominions, Canada and the agricultural countries of Europe carried on their financial transactions on a sterling rather than a dollar basis. If the monetary restrictions continue, he said, “serious limitations would be placed on our exports . . . as they would not have the means to pay us.” Such restrictions would mean, he « added, that Egyptian and Indian cotton would replace American cotton in world trade; Rhodesian and Near Eastern tobacco would replace American tobacco; and British automobiles and machinery would replace the American products. “In half the trading areas of the world,” he said, “American products would be at a serious disadvantage in competing with the products of the sterling area countries, Our trade with Britain and-the sterling area would become a mere trickle.”

BRITAIN WON'T RELEASE BASES
Report Bevin Already Told
United Press Staff Correspondent | LONDON, May 14. — Informed has informed James F. Byrnes Britain is unwilling to consider!
bases to the United States at this'
British diplomatic and political correspondents were told last night Mr. Bevin made this “quite clear” to Mr. Byrnes during lengthy conversations in Paris. The British viewpoint, as authoritatively reported, is that the United States should have full access to island bases under a regional plan for South Pacific defense in which the United Kingdom, United States, Australia and New Zealand would participate jointly. The joint commonwealth viewpoint, as reported here, is that this defense scheme has priority over, and is separate from, a question of sovereignty. Validity Acknowledged
It was understood the next step in the Pacific base question will be discussions in Washington between
state department representatives and Australian and New Zealand officials.
The stand against cession received editorial endorsement despite a general tendency to acknowledge the validity of American interests in the South Pacific zone. The liberal News Chronicle noted the “immense” American sacrifice in breaking the Japanese grip on the Pacific but insisted that if “the United Nations is to have any meaning at all” the regional defense system should be instituted as a first step t#ward internationalization of the Pacific. Discussion in Progress
Strategic importance of the islands in the race to develop world commercial airlines apparently was not overlooked in the British decision. The New Chronicle remarked this was a consideration to which the Americans doubtless attach considerable importance. A foreign office spokesman confirmed yesterday . Anglo-American discussions on the bases are ip progress. Among islands under discussion are Christmas island, Funafuti and Canton. The spokesman said sovereignty over some Pacific islands is disputed. between the two countries. He added as far as he knew, the United States was not demanding title to any British claimed islands.
