COUNCIL OF DEFENCE FORMED. WILL CO-OPERATE WITH ALLIES. WASHINGTON, March 21. "While a War Cabinet has not been formed, a National Council of Defence has been established, under "which will be included members of the Cabinet and railway and industrial experts. This will probably act as a War Council.' Congress has already given the Defence Council a- quasi official status, and it is believed that it will be able to operate efficiently under these powers. The Council’s first business will be to mobilise the financial, industrial, and transportation resources of the country. The Department of State has announced that the United States will cooperate with the Allies in all war operations.
