A. B. Chandler (D.-Ky.) one of five senators who made a 40,000 mile tour of world battle thea ters, said here that Gen. Douglas MacArthur should be given the war supplies he needs to reinforce his offensive against the Japan ese or be relieved of his com mand. , After reporting his findings to a closed senate session, he told newsmen that neither MacArthur ! nor Maj. Gen. Claire Chennault, I commander ot the 14th air force in China, have received anywhere near the amount of supplies re quested.

Chandler, who last spring chal lenged the Roosevelt Churchill strategy placing prime emphasis on defeat of Germany, again call ed on the allies to concentrate more might against Japan "the i strongest enemy we've ever had." i He found fault with various possible routes of attack against Japan proper and said that Mac Arthur's battle plan for an offens ive via the Philippines "is our best and shortest road." He was critical of the British. Asserting he found no evidence of an immediate British drive In to Burma, he contended the Brit ish "are not enthusiastic for a strong China," because a strong China might challenge British control f Honk Kong. His colleagues previously had charged that the British substi tute their own identifications for American markings on lend-lease goods and trans-ship them to Tur key and India to build up rela tions which may reap post-war economic benefits. This was partially confirmed to day by Undersecretary of War Robert P. Patterson, in testimony before a joint congressional econ omy committee, he indicated some lend-lease materials sent to Bri tain by the United States have been re-shipped by Britain to Turkey and Russia without any credit to the 'United States. He said he was unaware of any U. S. control over lend-lease goods once they tire delivered. Christian Endeavor Session Postponed ROSEBURG, Oct. 13.
