Churchill Sees US Help From Destroyer Pact But Warns
Winston Churchill told Parliament the British American destroyer exchange and bases deal aims to deter danger while the United States remains non belligerent. He warned Hitler may try to use the U S, yet expressed confidence the Third Reich will fall, like Napoleon, though without its glory. He noted heavier fighting ahead in the England battle as German air strength grows and London endures another air raid. The air ministry reported 12 German planes shot down in southeast England, 3 British planes missing, and some damage to gas water mains and a hospital.

Urges U S To Get Bases in Pacific
Representative Izac of California urged the United States to acquire bases in the Galapagos and Cocos islands to reinforce defense of the Panama Canal. He said the Atlantic and Caribbean bases, plus these Pacific sites, would make the defense setup nearly complete and called for prompt action. A congressional group backing the idea hinted the destroyer base exchange with Britain could boost a renewed push for Pacific facilities. Secretary Knox noted some discussions on leasing or purchasing the Galapagos from Ecuador and the Cocos from Costa Rica.
