Truman reports Lendlease aid paid and gains predicted
President Truman told Congress that about seventy percent of Lend-Lease aid through September 30 has been marked paid and that reverse lend-lease and payments will total over ten billion dollars. He urged that the accounting will support postwar economic stability and noted Britain received sixty five percent of aid, the Soviets twenty three, with Russia invited to negotiate a settlement. A corollary note added that negotiations with Yugoslavia, Poland, and Czechoslovakia have not begun. In Tokyo, Dixie Tighe of the New York Post was taken to the Army hospital in serious condition for care under Dr. MacArthur's physician.
