Connaily predicted the new lease- lend appropriation would be in the neighborhood of $4,000,000.000 and indicated the fund would be re- quested later in the year "if and when it is needed." Some authorities had speculated that the new appropriation, which would be in addition to $7,000,000.- 000 already voted, might reach $10.0t)0.000.000. Corinally said. how- ever, Wat the request would be considerably less than that sum. He added that the largest portion of the original appropriation still has not been spent. Connally reported that Britain had arranged to co-ordinate its requests for lease-lend materials under a single agency in order to eliminate confusion resulting from separate requests from the British navy, army and sir force. Other informants reported Mr. Roosevelt advised the congressional group that Russia was making an effective fight against Germany and that her withdrawals from var- ious sectora did not indicate s German victory was imminent. It was said by the conierees that British authorities believe Russia can stand against Germany through the fail and that the Germans thus will not be able to launch an im- mediate attack against the British Isles. If on attack should be made. it was reported, it probably would be delayed at least until spring. One of the congressional group said that British authorities were convinced that to defeat Germany Britain eventually would have to invade llie continent.

A foreigner who left Berlin recently told the correspondent. that at the spot where one big bomb fell German war office experts spent days searching the debris In the hope of find- ing enough fragments to study the construction and nature of the bomb.

The bomb blew roofs off houses and smashed windows over a radius of 600 yards. The effect of the British raids on the German public was de- scribed by a man who went for a holiday In the Black Forest.
