The Pros- ident, fearing potential rivals, gave them almost nothing to do. But since the inauguration of January 20, 1941, this has gradually changed. Vice* President Wallace not only has been an active and very cooperative member of Lne Roosevelt cabinet, but more and more the President has called upon him to help iron out important administrative snarls, particularly in national defense, until now in- stead of being a diner-out, Wallace is definitely the No. 2 man in the Roosevelt Administration. Rela- tions between the two men are close, corlial and confidential. They op- erate as a perfect team. NOTE—Interesting fact is without neglecting his job of pres- iding over the Senate.

Some time ago, rumor had it that the Duchess was expecting e child. A newsman who heard the rumor was asked by his office to check on it. So he routed out the Duch- ess’s equerry very frankly. This proper gentleman was shocked at the thought of having to get the answer to such a ques- tion, but he did his duty. He came back with this statement: “Her grace wishes to reply that before she is allowed to have a -child she must obtain the consent of the British Parliament, and— hmm—she'll be damned if she’ll ask them.” VIVISECTING ENGLAND Harry Hopkins and Aubrey Wll]—‘ the Nazis, Finland is at but still Scandinavian states- between these two | a copy of a Swedish issued affirmative. ‘Norwegian Government and machinery mutual defense pact, Stalinites seemed which that that | Wallace has assumed his new duties | and- put the question | | The Board of ;land was buying | take place in the Now, from the Swedish | 2 N onue. that no advantag the Finnish Blue- turers over their certain plans of aggression, There would be ing quired for the m: sent to England, a defense The Swede d: The same [¢ No one in W an fail to be stir began to |lads, to|small canoes to would threater, | Britair y forcing him to |tides. and those he had olreads | Waterway will a time they da e n invasion of Ru iled stou itered, seizing th there hav ely to shore In these five youths you have France.

The British are fight- | ing a war and they have other| things to think about. They are| fed up on our surveys. “They want food and planes and guns—but no more vivisection!” | | NEW LEASE-LEND BILL i Roosevelt's leaders on Capitol Hill have made a quiet check of his| foreign policy supporters and re-| port that the new $5,985,000,000 | Lend-Lease Bill will pass the House by a considerably greater margin | than the original $7,000,000,000 L-L | Bill, which was adopted by a vote lof 260-165. This is because Repub- lican opposition to Roosevelt's for- eign policy has crumbled consid- erably. But in the Senate it is a different ' story. Here the Administration ex- pects to win, but by no greater marginy that the last L-L Bill, namely 60-31. This is safe enough, but the interesting thing is the contrasting change of sentiment in the two Houses of Congress, The House of Representatives, where members are elected for two vears only, always reflects more rapidly the opinion of the electorate. The Senate, whose members are isafe for a term of six years, is slower in reflecting public senti- ment. So in the Senate, the new L-L | Bill will be vigorously attacked by | the isolationists, who are already | secretly planning some emasculat- ing amendments, chiefly one to pre- vent the President from using any | mere Lend-Lease money for ;ud{ to Russia. This it can be stated, | will be voted down.
