ish has t- i.-cd American made
planes and tanks m tl.eii North
African campaigns against the
Axis..'while British pilots in our
■ lanes have smashed at the Nazis
on the eontinent; Other tons of
war goods and equipment have
gone to India, the Middle Hast.
• Australia. New /eland, and to a
I less extents—because of the elos
; ing of the Burma Hoad—to
China. Tl|e Cnited States and
Great. Britain Between them have
shipped (but not always delivered
lover the Northern convoy route)
to Soviet Russia during the past
year, more than 15,000 planes.
; more than 4,000 tanks, more tha„i
) 30,000 trucks, jeeps and other
j vehicles and hundreds of thou
sands of tons of food, medical sup
. pile- and other produce.
| Agricultural products. mostly
i foods, exported under the Lend
Lease program from March 11,
1041, to October 31, 1942. were
( valued at $1,147,000,000. These
food supplies have been particu
i larlv important in helping to sus
, tain the civilian populations and
! armed forces of the United King
dom and the Soviet Union and
keep them in fighting trim, yet
the volume of our foot! exports
has been small by comparison
with the amounts we have re
served for our own war services
and for American civilians. Our
Lend-Lease shipments of process
ed milk | roducts, during 1942,
were only 4 per cent of our milk
supply, in that period we sent
abroad less than ine per cent of
the meats now under voluntary
lationing, except pork, of which
we shipped IT per gent, and about
1.2 i or cent of our total egg pr>
d notion went abroad.
Benefit* Not One-Sided
Rut the benefits of Lend-Lease
exchange have not been all in
favor of our allies, by any means.
Damaged American warships and
merchant vessels abroad have
been repaired in friendly ship
yards Many of the American
contingents sailing to the fight
ing fronts travel in British ships,
and British planes and warships
protect our convoys. Supplies and
service furnished to American
overseas forces include various
shipping and supply facilities,
food, uniforms, and other quar
termaster supplies that can he
provided on the spot and so save
shipping space.
Materials and labor to build
U. S. air forces in Britain and
the building of troop cantonments,
bases, headquarters and storage
facilities have absorbed a good
part of the British construction
industry. Both Australia and
New Zealand are straining their
domestic economy to the utmost
to supply our forces with food,
housing, transportation, wool and
cotton uniforms, and other equip
ment and supplies. Similarly, the
fighting French have contributed
to our military needs in regions
they control.
It is evident, that Lend-Lease
has become a major weapon for
fighting the war and carrying it to
a successful conclusion.

Rosebud is eight, and the most
beautiful shade of caramel fudge.
To her loving Mammy and Pappy
she is known, on approximately al
ternate days, as "Angel'' and "You
devil child". It was on her devil- \
child days that Rosebud tied the |
knots in the shirts that Mammy had j
taken in for washing, and poured the :
whole of the vanilla bottle into the j
lamb stew, just, she said later
through bitter tears, to "tlavor it up
some".
On her angel days Rosebud is
equally imaginative even if a more
restful occupant of the'little shack
down on Vinegar Hill. Once when
doing day work, j
Rosebud got a j
wave of cleaning '
fever and scoured
every pot and pan
in the kitchen so
that they literally
glistened. Anoth- j
er day, left alone, .
sue uaica up i
Mammy's and Puppy's room to such !
a point of apple-pie order that it was I
a week before Pappy could find an |
undershirt.
Rosebud is a great reader of the
newspapers. Mammy and Pappy
don’t take one. but there are plenty
of perfectly good newspapers blow
ing round Vinegar Hill. It was nut
of one of them that Rosebud got her
idea for spending the ten cents the
Bunny had put under her pillow tiie
night her tooth came out. After break
fas Rosebud disappeared down
the Hill and reappeared soon after
with a beautiful ten-cent War Stanm
pasted firmly into a brand-new book
with neat little squares for more
stamps She displayed her invest
ment to Mammy. "I declare you're
an angel child," Mammy said. Rose
bud went on sitting on the kitchen
floor staring with large brown eyes
at the empty squares in her book.
From time to time she took hold of
one or another of her teeth and
wiggled it, gently.
Mammy was engrossed in a par
ticularly big washing. Rosebud was
as quiet as a mouse and Mammy
forgot about her until, coming in
from the yard with her arms full of
dry sheets, she encountered her child
with a large hammer in her hand.
Scenting the devil in her angel child,
Mammy shouted at her, "Rosebud!
Come yere with that hammer! What
you planning on doing""
But what was done was done. In
Rosebud's other hand was another
tooth. Her mouth was stretched in
a broad if slightly bloody smile. "I
ain't doing nothing. Mammy,” she
said. "I'm just filling up my stsfmp
book."
