that the United Kingdom had
supplied, up to June 3U 01 mis
voar, munitions and other goods
and services valued at $2,437.
062,000 and that Australia. New
Zealand and India furnished
$911,065,000 a grand total of
$3,348,127,000.
No Comparison
The United Stales has furnish,
ed to the United Kingdom for
the same period ending June 30,
a total of $9,321,549,000 of lend
lease and to all the allies a total
of $28,27O.3M,000 worth, But
Mr. Roosevelt urged that no
comparisons be made on a dollar
basis.
"We are not loaning money
under lend-lease," he said- "We
art not. receiving payment un
der reverse lend-lease. . , .
"Neither the monetary totals
of the lend-lease aid wo suffply,
nor the totals of the reverse
lend-lease aid we receive are
measures of the aid we have
given or received In this war.
That could be measured only in
terms of the total contributions
toward winning victory of each
of the United Nations.

Phone Operators
End Walk Outs
WASHINGTON. Nov. 24 M
The nation breathed relievcdly
Into Its telephones today, spar
ed of a threatened widespread
strike that could have tied up
its communications in wartime.
Telephone operators who had
quit their jobs in 29 Ohio cities,
Washington and Detroit went
back to their switchboards. Sim
ilar walkouts which had shown
every sign of developing in New
York and elsewhere promptly
faded.
Phillips Pleas For
'Closed Mind' On
Fundamental Ideals
A plea for a "closed mind." on
the fundamental ideas and ideals
upon which our country was
founded, to guide us through
these troubled times, was the
Thanksgiving message of the
Rev. Victor Phillips, Rotary
speaker at Friday's club lunch
eon at the Willard hotel.
Such fundamentals as belief in
God and the brotherhood of man
should be our unquestioned be
liefs, Rev. Phillips said. Regard
ing such principles, he likened
thn "ooen mind" to an open
drain which catches all the rub
bish carried on the current.
He closed his talK w 1 1 n a
charge of "hats off to the past
and coats off to the future."
It was announced that John B.
Reilly of Whittier, Calif., direc
tor of Rotary International,
would visit and address the club
next Friday.

Rhine at this point isn't too
strongly held by the nazie.
THE big battle is still between
Aachen and Cologne. Here
the Germans have committed
the bulk of their BEST troops.
It seems to be a do or die battle
on their part.

THERE is an interesting de

Churchill, in a surprise
rnanxsgiving aaaress, says: in
three, or four years the United
States has become the greatest
military, naval and air power
IN THE WORLD."
That, he says, is cause for
American thanksgiving. He adds
that it is cause for BRITISH
thanksgiving also "BECAUSE
under the compulsion 01 myster
ious and all-powerful destiny
WE ARE TOGETHER . . . shod
dins our blood side by side,
struggling for the same ideals
and joined together until the
triumph of the great cause which
we serve nas cccn maac mam

TT is a nice concession from
! x Britain, for some four centur

! can't help wondering WHY it is
made.
Is Churchill, intent on the
mighty international poker game
I already on, saying to STALIN:
i "Look! We and the Amer
j icans are TOGETHER, America
I alone (not counting Britain) is
I the GREATEST military, naval
and air power in the world. Be
; fore pushing us too hard (in
j eastern Europe, the Balkans, the
Near East, etc.) you'd better take
i another look at your hole card."
.
f"NE doesn't like to think such
things in these days when
men are dying In the final
bloody stages of the war against
Germany.
But we mustn't forget that In
EUROPE the diplomatic war of
international politics is now
fully as Important as the shoot- Allies CrOSS Rhine,

History leaves no cioum as 10
that.
We Americans w 1 be USED
in this political warfare to what

PERMIT ourselves to bo used.
We must keep that In mind
from here on out.
Canadian Cabinet
In Crisis Over New
Overseas Draft
(Continued from Page One)
Quebec were reported planning
to withdraw support troni 1110
govermnent, and one cabinet
member from Quebec, English
speaking Air Minister G. G.
Power, already had resigned.
King declared last night he
would seek to avoid a general
election at this time, but it ap
peared that events were mov
ing too swiftly for him to be
able to dictate their course.
The government's new policy
provides that 16,000 men may be
sent overseas from the drafted
home defense army, and that
figure may be changed later as
needs change. The step marked
abandonment of five years of
war effort under a system of vol
unteer enlistment for service
abroad.
To Prime Minister King's
counsel that those speaking of a
lack of confidence' should con
sider what alternative govern
ment they would put in if he
resigned, progressive conserva
tives cried: "John Bracken."
Bracken is national leader of
that party.
In announcing the switch to
partial conscription, the govern
ment took the position that the
voluntary system of obtaining
reinforcements had failed.
Gen. A. G. McNaughton, de
fense minister, told commons
the 16,000 to be taken from the
60.000-man home defense army
and sent overseas was the num
ber required to meet foreseen re
inforcements for overseas infan
try formations.
McNaughton said that when
he entered the cabinet early this
month he had believed the vol
untary system would bring in
adequate reinforcements , but
added that "since then condi
tions have altered."
