Congri -s continues lo be strongly livided in the stand of its members >n our involvement in the war but j alrt. :-st urn ruinous in v illing- j| less c take every step possible for il mr defense. Thus, while legislation j cgaraing the service of selectees in I ortigri lands is bitterly debated, the j 'resident s request for an additional ! 4.770,5B8 for the army and S3.323.- i 00.'.-UU for the navy is expected to ! >e granted without discussion. The j 'resident's request indicates that j iuring the new fiscal year, which | iegar. July 1. requests for funds will I >e on a larger scale than in 1940 and j hat there is no limit j et in view oil j he cost of our defense program. Following defeat by the house of j egislation to give the President for- j r.ai authority to ust troops to take j iver defense plants, defeated pri- ! nariiy because of a sharp decline in j he number of strikes, new strikes ' mmtdiately took place in a number ; if key plants. Claiming that the j miens took defeat of strike-curbing ' egislation as their okav to go ahead villi new strikes, supporters of the egisiation are continuing to demand hat strikes be halted by law. Congressmen who have been dehnnding anti-strike legislation, are ising the strike at the Sealed Pow r Corporation of Muskegon, Mich., is an "1 told you su" example of the leed for legislation. They are pointng out thai the national defense mediation board was unable to preent that strike which affected other ilants such as AUis-Chalmers and Villys-Overland, which have mil ions in defense contracts. Discussion continues over Secreary Knox's revelation that an Amercan na\.il vessel drouoed a denth i jomb as a warning to a submarine i vhich was approaching a rescue | operation. Although the isolationsts have been bitter in their cuti:ism of this action, the majority of officials here have philosophically tcceptcd suc:t action as not being an ict of war but merely one of enoreing our right oi freedom of the i teas and our right to fight "piracy I >n the high seas. Informed circles point out that the President, 111 several speeches, has r eferred to German actions on the I ieas as "piracy" and pomt out that his government, throughout its hisory, has fought pirates who have nterferred with the activities of its nerchant marine. They say that in ernational law can rightfully be inerpreted to make German raiders | una sumnarmes lit. ttie definition of "pirate." This interpretation, although not 'xpressed in so many words by the ^resident. indicates his continued letermination to justify all steps vhich he takes toward involvement n the war in the light of our not icing a belligerent. The national ""aluminum shower" if July 21, it is estimated, will protide about 15.000,000 pounds of aluninum to ease the shortage of this iroduct and thus aid defense. Aluminum, however, will continue o be a major bottleneck in our deense production, for in addition to I aw material, a tremendous amount if electrical power is needed to ireak the ore down into usable form. Hew dams to produce power are to ie built in the Tennessee valley, but .o supply the power needed while they are being built may be a severe tax on the power facilities of the nation.
