durinir the next vear. he said:
Anv statement is premised upon
peace nnd the return of Kurope to
work. I do not take it we will fi
nucc mi v more wars in Europe, di
rectly or indirectly, nor that we will
provide monev to enable the people
of Kurope to live without work, or to
work part time, as at present. Ibis

will end with peucc.
The amount of credits from the
t'nitcd States to Kurope durinir the

inability of the nations to pay for
(al raw material, machinery ' and
tools, (b) food, (c) currency .reor
