CREDIT FOR BKIIAIIN ADVOCATED
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright (Received November 25, 10 pin.) WASHINGTON, November 24. Mr Bloom, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said: “It should be emphasised that Britain does not need money but merely credits, for which reason we should receive specific lists of British needs for which we can extend suitable credits. If they need a billion dollars worth of ’planes we should give them ’planes on credit.” Mr Bloom said that such credits might be arranged without amending the Johnson Act. He criticised Senator Hamilton Fish, who proposed that the United States should seek British possessions in exchange. Mr Bloom said that the United States did not want further possessions.
