LEND-LEASE AID TO CHINA
WASHINGTON, Wednesday.
The Foreign Economic Administrator
(Mr. Leo Crowley) reported
to-day that the United States had
supplied China with lend-lease weapons
and materials, valued at 459 million
dollars, since March, 1941.
Lend-lease to China is now 15
times greater than a year ago. '
Mr. Crowley concluded that the
current programme of lend-lease to
China involves a steadily increasing
aid to enable the Chinese forces to
strike at the enemy on the mainland
while British and American forces
are striking at the Japanese in the
Pacific and on home islands.
