AID FOR BRITAIN
MR WILLKIE'S VIEWS THE FULLEST SUPPORT NEW YORK, Oct. 3. The Cleveland correspondent of the New York Times says Mr Willkie stated that he gave no interview to the Christian Science Monitor. He declined to supplement his public pronouncements regarding the acquisition of bases in the Pacific, which he favours. He said he stood by his speech at San Francisco. Mr Willkie added that, if elected, he would continue the efforts to aid the heroic British—the only people in the world to-day fighting for their lives and liberty. " I would aid Britain even if it meant the sacrifice of some of the speed in building our own air fleet," he said. " The longer Britain holds out. the more time we have to prepare."
