(Received February 12, .12.15 a.m.)

NEW YORK, February 11.

The Associated Press Ottawa correspondent says Hint Britain has freshly ordered 30,000,000 dollars worth of planes from Canadian manufacturers. It is understood that at first Hampden bombers will be made and later it is likely that four-motored Sterlings will be produced. Those two types are the most modern bombers.

FOOD FOR POLES

Ships Not Delayed At Gibraltar (British Ollicinl Wireless.) RUGBY, February 9. There is no truth in the suggestion of tlie Bolish newspaper “Goniaek Crawcowski" that delegates of the American Red Cross and (Junket organizations have been unable to carry out their intended relief measures in Poland because of the detention at Gibraltar by the British authorities of American ships with supplies for Poland. It. is learnt, on the contrary, that so far from obstructing the shipment of food and other relief supplies to Poland from America the Allies haye done everything in their power to facilitate their dispatch, subject only to the necessary safeguards to ensure that the supplies'should in fact reach the people for whom they were intended.
