"DFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY, JUNE 14. 1940. ALL POSSIBLE AID SAYSJOSEVELT Request By Reynaud for 'Clouds of Airplanes' Not Yet Received Officially WashlnKton, June 14. W) President Roosevelt repeated to day that all possible help was being extended to the allies and pointed to Hitler's record In re sponse to a report that the Ger man chancellor had said invas ion of the western hemisphere was grotesque. Mr. Roosevelt was told at a press conference that Hitler had called the possibility or German invasion of the Americas "gro tesque" In an interview with a newspaperman. Asked for comment, the chief executive said he could give none except to say "that it brings up recollections.' He authorized direct quota tion. Defense Slept He added tliat his remark could be enlarged on with dates and nations, going back over quite a period of years. Mr. Roosevelt announced two additional steps to bolster the nation s defenses: The signing of an army ap propriation bill carrying about $1,498,000,000 for expansion of army personnel and fighting equipment. The formation of a national defense research committee headed by Dr. Vannevar Bush, head of the Carnegie Institu tion, and of the national advis ory committee for aeronautics. The board, the president said, will have seven additional mem bers but their names are not yet ready for announcement. The chief executive was asked whether he believed the United Slates could "extend Its material resources to the allies in sufficient volume and suf ficient speed to save them." He did not reply directly, asserting it would take two hours to answer the inquiry. . He said, also, that he had re ceived no second direct appeal from Premier Reynaud of France for "clouds" of airplanes and further assistance against tne (Jerman foe. (Reynaud said In speech yesterday that he needed clouds" of airplanes from cross the Atlantic.)

With thousands of recreation 1st in the forests over the week ends and with additional tens of thousands motoring thru timber lands, the state forest patrol in Jackson and Josephine counties already have their hands full on Saturdays and Sundays, it was explained. The restricted use ol burning permits was decided upon as a means of affording greater protection against forest fires over the week-ends.
