A little earlier tppresidenr a

reporter i that Mr. Roosevelt prob
ably would discuss the lending-

But, he added, Mr, Roocevelt prob
ably had not decided Whether to
go into detail or cover Jhe subject
In a general way. In liny event
he added, the ent rr proposal
would be put before fress soon
after the session bet
The day also bren ' ; a, striking
development in the a tt-toBrJtala
program with the announcement
that England had purchased three
new flying boats of :n Atlantic
Clipper type from Paii-American
Airways. They are " be used.
Morris Wilson of the British min
Istry of aircraft production said,
to "maintain empire ommunlca
tions." There were some, indica
tions the boats wou:i - be. used
principally between Kagland. and
Canada to , ferry 'off i-iaia and pi
lots across, me Aiian;.
Interpretations s Are
Surprise to FDR V
At his press con f " Mr,
Roosevelt was asked whether his
statement of Sunday oight that
there was no intent k r of send
ing an : American erdltionary
force Into the Europeaa war ap
plied to the navy an 1 el? force
as well as the army Some, he
was told, had raised hat ones
tipn in . interpreting the chief
executive's address.
Mr. Roosevelt rentier! that ..h
read all kinds of . things in newsvl
paper interpretations of his re
marks that he had never" thought
of in his life. Some of them, he
said, lust hit him beween the
'eyes for the reason that he had
never thought of them.
The possibility of permitting
England to pay . off ar imple
ments later with raw materials,
arose out of an explanation by
the president-of how he lease
lend plan might work out. .He
took, for example, thre- guns sup
plied to Great Britain under the
scheme.
One might never be fired and
could obviously be ret rned in
tact, he said; the secord might
be made as good as nev. by minor
'repairs, and returned. The third
might be demolished I? a nail
bomb, and In that ever.: another
would have to be supped to re
place it. It was then t:,it a re
ported Inquired whether he third
gun might not be paid f- in rub
ber, tin or some othert comnidd
ity,and the president , plied ' la
the affirmative. . "

Bequest to College

PORTLAND. Dec. 31-fn-The
bequest of the late E. S. Collins
to the College of Puget Sound
probably will not exceed $5000,
Charles E. McCulloch, attorney,
said today.
At one time the wealthy lum
berman's Washington holdings,
40 per cent of which were be
queathed to the college, would
have exceeded $100,000, the at

Since then timber has been cut
from the tracts and McCulloch be
lieved Collins' properties would
not exceed a value of $10,000
now.
Pilot Jolted out
Of Plane but Pal
Land It Safely
OAKLAND, Calif., Dec. 31-UP)
-Ealph Botthoff, 2 V, an airplane
pilot from San Francisco, bounc
ed out of his own open-cockpit
plane during a snap-roll maneuv
er today, parachuted nearly 4000
feet into the bay and was rescued
15 minutes later, chilled and near
exhaustion, by a navy amphibian
plane. .
He told rescuers he felt a sud
den Jerk, as if something had
snapped, when half-way through
the maneuver; he loosted his
safety belt, quickly reached over
to the other cockpit and tapped
his fellow pilot; James Burton
Duncan, also of San Francisco,
on the head. Almost at the same
instant the plane jerked again
and he was thrown out.
Duncan didn't know what had
hit him on the head, he said la
ter, because It happened Just as
the jerks came and he wondered
what was going on. He didn't
know Botthoff wasn't still In his
place until, he suddenly, - saw the
parachute ' billowing out below
him. a rudder wire .was broken,
be said, but by careful maneuver
ing w ittt his own .stick, he was
able to get the plane back to the
airport, but It struck on one wing
in landing,' stood on its nose and
went on over on Its back.
Duncan climbed out unhurt and

the world liars' championship! for
Howard Li .Amberson
of ' Three.
Forks, Mont. ?-
With the title went a diamond-
studded gold medalIf one can
believe of fleers, of the Burlington
Liars' club--which the club j be
stows anually upon the spinner of
the years best yarn.
The club handed the laurel
Amberson, a veteran of the range,
at Its traditional New Year's! eve
meet In r
Amberson's story, one of more
than 60.00 submitted during Ithe
last year, was as follows:
"We were herding stock from
the range to the valley ranch for
the winter when it turned terribly
cold. This meant extra help. So
hired a young fellow, new to the
country.
"The first day, he complained
of his feet getting cold. We told
him of an old established practice
here on the range: instead1 of
wearing overshoes or socks, ! we
sprinkled a little red pepper; on
our boots.
"He consulted the cook and; we
started out. Before long he was
kicking his feet agains tthe stir
rups. Then he dismounted land
walked. Soon he struck out in
one. of those stomping dog-trots.
"He said that he figured If red
pepper was good, chill powder
ought to be better.
"Friction of the chili powder
against the ball of his foot, as he
rode, had heated things up inside
those boots 'til it had cooked! his
bunion, popped his corn and the
only reason his toes weren t hurt
was because they had hung them
selves on the nails."
Honorable mention was accord
ed these :
From O. Baver, Montreal
Fish in the Kakabonga lakes are
so big that he takes a concrete
mixer along when he goes fishing.
He uses it to build a foundation
for a winch to haul In his catch
The fish are so big that they have
developed hinges on each side to
enable them to swing around
curves which are less than a
quarter of a mile long.
From G. W. Hendricks, coroner
of Cartow county, Cartersville,
Ga. "I had a hen that built her
nest in some high weeds and laid
15 eggs in it. A chicken snake
found (hem and swallowed every
one. About three weeks. later this
same snake came crawling up to
the house with 14 little chicks
following it. The chickens are
now growing fine."
England's Plight
Serious, Verdict
(Continued From Page 1)
ended, the correspondents stress
ed that:
1. Britain's greatest need is not
airplanes but merchant ships and
destroyers to protect them against
German and Italian surface raid
ers, submarines and coastal bomb
ers. . !
2. Continued German blitz
kriegs against British cities have
done surprisingly little damage
to Britain's essential war indus
tries. 2, British confidence In ulti
mate victory with American aid,
faT from being shaken by the pun
ishment her cities have taken, has
been strengthened 100 per cent by
the Italian defeats in Greece and
Libya. i
"The surface raider and sub
marine have become a far greater
menace to Britain than the night
bllts bomber," said McGaffin, a
native of David City, Neb.
"While the food situation i in
Britain is nowhere near as ser
ious as It was in 1917, German
raiders are taking heavy toll! of
convoys bringing needed Imports
to the embattled island.
"This of course adds up to a
cumulative loss of merchant bot
toms, but even more serious is
the lack of warships to convoy
the merchantmen.
"For example, as we passed
through Bermuda we saw a con
voy of 18 vessels assembling, j As
possible protection there were
only one armed merchant cruiser
and two destroyers. -
"From a food point of view it
is fortunate that the British have
stored stocks reported in wellj-in-
lormed circles to be suf f icient 1 f or
one year."
Pitkin, who waa born in Alta
mont. 111., said the British did not
think it possible for them to lose
the war "but it will . be difficult
for them to win unaided," he add
ed. "The British both the man
in the street and authorities-
make no bones Of this."
