ALLIED BUYING
IN THE UNITED STATES
SUGGESTED EXTENSION OF CREDITS. PLANE ORDERS AND DELIVERIES By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. WASHINGTON, May 30. Mr P. V. McNutt, in a speech, said: “If by extending credits to the democracies defeat for their cause may be averted, the future welfare and safety of this country would justify it” He asserted that it would be legitimate to buy some Allied possessions in the Western Hemisphere to prevent hostile powers from getting a foothold. The Allies are reported to have placed a 250,000,000 dollar order for pursuit and bomber planes in recent days, which is additional to the thousand million already spent. The latest available figures are that the Allies have bought 7,700 planes since January, 1939, of which 2000 have been delivered.
