May 26 -—tAP) -'I‘he German grand adrnirays warnings to the United States aroused defiance here today, and hifileiJy-placed authorities expressed be f that President R/Ofki-EYEID would demand more active aid for Britain in a major "fireside chat" he f5 to deliver tomorrow night. The White House itself mutt/ed the impression to grow hat the speech the President Li to deliver to the country and the world by radio at 11:30 p. m. A.D.T. would be one of the most important lie has ever delivered. "Rapidly chang- lng conditions abroad” have prompted MR2 Roosevelt to revise the address completely, it was dis- closed at the White House._ Presumably those Conditions in- cluded the admonition to the Unit- ed States from Grand Admiral Erich Raeder, commander of the German navy, that American con- voying w id constitute an open act of we and that. the American naval patrol was “aggressive? The Raecler statement brought acid replies from two men high 1n the administration,- Presldentlal Secretary Stephen Early asserted that he had “an idea Berln today k trying to do any- thing it. can to becloud the Presi- dent's speech." State Secretary Cordell Hull said the Raeder pronouncement appear- ed to be. some sort of a threat to induce the United States. and pro- bably other Amerlcan nations. to refrain from real efforts at self defence until Hitle gets control of the other four continents. He added it. was a favorite Nazi method, either by threats or per- suaslon, to induce European coun- tries from real efforts at self de- fence until Hitler was ready to seize them. It seems t0 be. Hull asserted, an integral part of the Hitler program of world bonquest by force. it was Early who disclosed ‘that the President lad decided to ro- wrlte completely the fireside chat. Early did not specifically identify the changes, but during the week- end Britain met additional reverses in the slnk'n oi her largest ovar- ship and in efforts to hold the vit- al, strategic island of Crete in In?! Eastern Mediterranean against hordeg of Qcmmna dropping out oi the sky by parachute. The weekend also brought the seizure by Japan of $10,000,000 of products owned by American companies and stored in warehouses hi Iiido-Chlna. Wheirer these events had crys- tallized any decisions for changes m American foreign polic could not be determined. But rom many sources have come demands that the President take a stronger stand on the problem of getting all-out material aid to embattled Britain. It was questionable whether he was prepared in tomorrow night's address to lay openly before the world any specific program for ex- panding American assistance w Britain. But the stron terms which Hull used in his repy to Raeder made it appear Jhat the United States is prepared to defy an threats from Germany. Both Hui and Ear- ly usually mirror with accuracy the views of the President himself. Never before so far as Early could recall had the President devoted so much time to tho preparation of an address. Collaborating with him are two men adept at fashioning phrases - Playwright Robert E. Sherwood and Judge samuel I. Rosenman of the New York state Supreme Court.
