Nor would he dliclose ChurchlU'i whereabouts at pre' tent. The reasons for illence on this point, he laid, were obvious. He said he even had objected to a prior announcement that he was landing at Rockland today. but finally remarked that it had been foggy on the way over and that if any submarines had fired torpedoes they had not been sighted..-' He listed the representatives of the army, navy and aviation services who had accompanied him and said these men had held individual and group conferences with corresponding represents uvea of Britain. On the question of aid to Rus sia, Mr. Roosevelt said there had been a discussion of fitting Rus sian needs to an already existing program. Russia will not be given lend lease aid, the president declared, because she can pay for her war equipment.

STATE AGREES TO I DKYQ E AMERICAN SHIP (Continued from Page One) mission assured $300,000 for the highway. Meanwhile, Klamath county has prepared for oiling 10 miles of the highway between Sprague River and the Lakevicw high' way. The county, however, has no money for immediate oiling, but it is believed some of the federal or state money may be used for that purpose. Sprague River highway con nects the main communities of the Klamath Indian reservation, serves industries in Chlloquln and Sprague River, and serves as a cut-off for eastern Klamath and Lake counties' travel. Troops Due Here Sunday En Route To Washington (Continued from Page One) route through Oregon north was not announced. The battle front generally ex tends. south of Olympia, west to the Satsop river and south to the Columbia river.

Finally the posi tions were frozen or temporarily stopped by war game umpires so actual troop movements could begin. The ninth army corns from Fort Lewis moved into the field, found the enemy outnumbered then were forced to fall back. The Fort Lewis officers called upon California troops for helD and the trip north began. ine same mythical enemv will face the actual troops in the first battle scheduled tonight but to make, things more realistic a small token force, the 17th in fantry from California, now in the Brady area, will be moved around by the umpires in small units to represent this make believe large invader. Umpires will handle the enemy movements and it will be up to me defending trooos to make their own plans and repel the invader.

But the Russians, illustrating that they too have bombers, said they heavily raided Berlin and the German Baltic port of Stettin last nignt, setting off great ex plosions and fires. The Gfirmim. acknowledged raids by a "limit ed number" of Russian bomhen Both London and Washington interpreted the Roosevelt Churchill proposal for a Ion. term aid program to the Soviets as indicating confidence that the rea army, however battered, was ir irom Dcatcn.
