Mr. Guess spoke in assembly
Tuesday, September 30, on some of
the more pressing problems of na
tion-wide importance with 'which
the United States is now con
fronted. He emphasized especially
the stand that our Government
will take in regard to the Neutral
ity Act. Already, as is known,
several amendments, such as the
Lend-Lease Bill, have been made
to this act, and others concerning
convoys and arming of merchant
ships will probably be made in the
near future. Mr. Guess also spoke
of the immediate seriousness of
inflation.
