Roosevelt letters and war budget shape Christmas notes
President Roosevelt sent a Christmas greeting to Pope Pius XII and other faith leaders while naming Myron Taylor as U S representative to the Vatican. He cited Isaiah and warned against the law of destruction. Reports say 700 million dollars will be shaved from war and navy budgets to keep defense at 2 billion. Navy studies consider 65 000 ton battleships, Maas envisions 82 000 tons. Japan's traffic reopening and trade signals loom as Abe's cabinet stabilizes, with risks to U S business in China and potential shifts if Japan falters.
