Major test won on British aid act described in Senate vote
Washington March 7 The administration won the first major test on the British aid bill as the Senate rejected an amendment seeking congressional consent for American armed forces to deliver or convoy war supplies to Europe. The O Mahoney Bone Maloney amendment would bar deliveries or convoys without Congress consent to any war article under the pending bill except to areas adjacent to North and South America or under US jurisdiction. Bone’s modification banned convoys to Europe.

Buds in Excess Profit Tax Seen for 1942 Financing

Morgenthau favors two thirds revenue, one third borrowing. Defense stamps and certificates begin May 1, with stamps from 10 cents to $1 and certificates likely at 2.9 percent interest, semiannual compounding.
