AMENDED TREATIES
AMERICA AND DOMINIONS NEW ZEALAND AFFECTED j (United Press Asn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright) WASHINGTON, Sept. 24 The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Senate unanimously approved of a favourable report on amended treaties with Australia, New Zealand and Canada, providing for direct negotiation between these countries and the United States in any dispute*, rather than with Britain. Joint Blockade of Pacific Informed quarters believe Britain and America may collaborate in a joint blockade of the Pacific, with which the use of Australia, New Zealand and Singapore is bound up, says the New York Daily News. The paper states that 10,000,000 dollars’ worth of war materials are going to the Axis Powers from the United States every month by way of Spain, Portugal, Cuba, Russia and Mexico. Department of Commerce figures show, for example, that exports to Spain and Portugal increased by 22,000,000 dollars, compared with the first seven months of the year, while shipments to Russia and thence to Germany are leaping up.
