WAR MATERIALS
AMERICAN EXPORTS QUANTITY GOING TO AXIS NEW YORK, Sept. 24 (Received Sept. 25, at 11 p.m.) The Daily News says that 10,000,000 dollars’ worth of war materials are going to the Axis from the United States each month via Spain, Portugal, Cuba, Russia and Mexico. The Department of Commerce figures show, for example, that exports to Spain and Portugal have increased by 22.000,000 dollars, compared with the first seven months of last year, while shipments to Russia, thence to Germany, are leaping up.
Well-informed circles believe that England and America will collaborate in a joint blockade in the Pacific, with which the use of Australian, New Zealand and Singapore bases is bound up.
