Conference
Called On
Aid Τ ο Britain
Washington. .Jan. !' (AI') Presi
dent Boosevelt allied Democratic
leaders of the House and Senate to
day to a late afternoon eon Terence on
legislation to give him virtually un
limited authority to lend and lea.se
V/ar materials to Great Britain and
other nations lighting the axis pow
ers.
The meeting, it was believed, might
clear the way for introduction of the
bill tomorrow. Heading the list of
1ho.se asked to attend were Speakei
Kayburn and Senate Majority Lead
er Bark ley.
On high authority it was said that
the measure as now drawn neither
imposes a tup limit on possible lend
lease oid nor sets up a corporation
to handle such aid.
On tin1 contrary, the bill was said
to make possible future appropria
tions for the program in any amount
which Congress may vote, and to de
legate to the administration full re
sponsibility lor handling the aid.
Pending introduction of the legis
lation. efforts toward expanding the
output of munitions and increasing
the amounts sent abroad were being
stepped up.
One administration official report
ed that "we are working hard" on
plans for releasing airplanes to
Greece and "hope to do something
soon." He said none had been re
icated to Greece.
