Roosevelt said he could not be specific but advised reporters t¢ Jlook at a map of the world and they could assume we are doing something there. e The remarks were of a type to give reassurance to China and Australia, where some uneasiness has been reported over the possi- bility that American supplies might go more to the battle against Hit- ler than to the fight against the Japs. | § \ | Subscribe to the Daily Alaska Empire—the paper with the largest paid circulation.
