Walt Roosevelt Action Hull's statements were believed to be partially responsible for the comments of William S. Knudsen ami other defense officials that greater speed Is necessary In the defense program. Knudsen. a member nf the de fense commission, yesterday de ns one of "terrible urgency." That declaration and tho Hrltlsh request for financial help put two ! roi uililnhle proiuems on i i vanit ni illoospvpll's desk. As Mr. Hoose-vell returned to the executive ofllces for the first full iliiv after his two-week Caiibbcnn trip, the belief grew In some quarters that some Important lie I Hon might be forthcoming.

The word '"loan" was not apcnrute for the request, official sources snid. Knudsen, who has been dinning the need for speed-up in repi'iit utterances, reiterated in letters niaile public that a faster around-the-clock pace was "desperately needed" for "'the welfare of our country. Harder Work Needed Senator Austin of Vermont, act ing republican leader, followed un Knuilsen's comments today by ad vocating a readjustment of govern ment contracts lo finance a ti-diiy wpek for ilefensp industries. A consistent supporter of the Hrltlsh aid policy, Austin told newsmen it seemed obvious that industries would have to worli longer than the prevailing 4n hour week if they were to overcome cer tain '"bottle necks" hampering ill" fense production.
