English Lord
Ranis Loudly
Against Loan
LONDON. Feb. 28 .(?)
Lord Rotherwick attacked vig
orously .today the proposed
U. S. loan to Great Britain, as
serting that its approval would
mean this country would be
come "an illegitimate 49th
state of America."
Lord Rotherwick. chairman
and managing director of the
Clan Steamship line, spoke at
the- annual meeting of the
chamber of shipping:
"If ' this loan with its one
sided, impossible and unbe
lievable conditions takes place,
then the only comfort I can
see for those of us who are
growing old is that it will tend
to soften the pangs of death.
"It will mean the elimina
tion of this country as one of
the great powers for peace and
stability; in the world, and I
am afraid it will result eventu
ally in this country sinking to
a smell third class power an
illegitimate 49th state of
America, dragging down with
her the other members of the
empire." -
He said the loan should have
been given as a gift, free of
interest.
"It is something to be ash
amed of," he shouted, "it was
nothing more or less than the
selling of the British Empire
and its independence to America."
MAN THOUGHT
MISSING FOUND
A Diane flown by Al Moca-!
bee was sent to Buck lake, about
20 miles west of Klamath Fails
today, in an effort to locate a
65-year-old caretaker who had
been reported overdue in Med
ford 10 days.
The man, whose last name is
Gordon, cares for property of
Bill Von der Hellen of Medford
who asked for the plane to fly
over the area. Accompanied by
Hal Ogl of KFFA, Mocabee
flew over the lake early this
afternoon, saw tracks leading in
to the cabin and after buzzing
the little house several times
Gordon emerged. Notes were
dropped asking as to his wel
fare and Gordon signaled back
that he was all right.
It was first feared that the
aged man had been lost in his
efforts to return to Medford
through the snow covered moun
tains.
