Show LEND LEASE WILL SAVE AMERICANS Referring to the Lend-Lease policy pol-icy of the United States Senator Allen J. Ellender of Louisiana ' says that "we have been the sucker suck-er in the nth degree." The brother is worried about the national debt which is gping up faster than that of Great Britain, and other nations at war. He seems to forget the prime purpose of Lend-Lease, which is designed to keep the other nations fighting in order to save American lives. There is no doubt of the money that we could save by suspending Lend-Lease. Without our material supplies the British and Russians might have been beaten. We would have saved some money and by so doing thrown away the lives of many thousands of American fighting men. The "suckers" policy probably prevented the Axis from winning the war. Considering this, we think that Lend-Lease was an exceedingly exceed-ingly smart national policy, saving sav-ing many American lives and do-in do-in gmuch to guarantee victory over the Axis. Any other course would have been foolish even for suckers. |
