WASHINGTON, Mar. 1 —<UJ9—
Lend-Lease Administrator Edward
R. Stettinius. Jr., told the senate
foreign relations committee today
that under tlie lend-lease program
the United States and Great Bri-
tain have sent 5.600 planes. 6.200
tanks and 86.000 other military
motor vehicles to Soviet Russia.
Testifying on behalf of a bill to
extend for one year the life of the
lend-lease program, he said that
it had resulted In “a genuine pool-
ing of the available services of all
of the united nations." He revealed
that tlie United States is supply-
ing 44 countries with lend-lease
food and materials and said that
"lend-lease in reverse" has result-
ed in contributions of food, equip-
ment and resources of incalculable I
proportion’s to maintain American |
armies on foreign soil.
(lost* Are Revealed
The liou.se foreign affairs com-
mittee approved a companion bill
Saturday and it is scheduled to
come up for house debate late this
week. Stettinius was tlie first wit-
ness before tlie senate committee.
Up to Jan. 1. 1943, Stettinius said,
the United Kingdom received $2.-
440.000. 000 of lend-lease supplies,
including 10 percent of all the food
it consumes. Tlie Soviet union re-
ceived $1,300,000,000 of aid. includ- j
lug planes, tanks, trucks. 130.000
sub-machine guns, more than 98.- j
000,000 pounds of TNT and toluol. '
174.000. 000 pounds of copper and
brass and large amounts of food,
munitions and raw materials.
Shipments to the middle and far
east aggregated $1,660,000,000, in-
cluding those to Australia and New
Zealand. Among the chief imple-
ments of war which were shipped
to Egypt were more than 1.000
planes, many hundreds of tanks
and 20.000 trucks.
Aid to China Restricted
"Lend-lease aid to China has not
been nearly as great as the situs
tion requires," he admitted. "Every-
one concerned with lend-lease uid
programs lias been struggling for
more than a year with the problem
of developing new routes from
Iudla into China. Now more planes
are being made available and air-
borne shipments into China arc In-
creasing."
Nevertheless, until more planes
are available, U. S. supplies to China
"will continue to be restricted.” he
added.
The "lend-lease in reverse” pro-
gram has resulted in total dollar
purchases by the army dwindling to
less than $26,000 a month, Stettin-
ius said, pointing out that American
troops in the last war spent about
$2,500,000,000 in a year and a half.
British Share Food
British goods transferred to tlie
U. 8. during seven months ending
Dec. 31, 1942. totaled 1,121,706, ship
tons, 1.695,375 tons of construction
materials, several hundred Spitfire
planes, 2,000.000 blankets, 2,000.000
sets of underwear. 4.000,000 pairs
of wool socks and new hospitals
with a bed capacity of 89.000.
Despite tlicir own shortage of
food, lie said, the British have made
available to the United States more
than 1,500.000 pounds of flour, 50.-
000.000 pounds of butter; over 25.-
000.000 pounds of fruits and veg-
etables and more than 55.000.000
pounds of sugar.
New Zealand's contributions of
food have resulted in that country
suflering from scarcities, lie said.

Tlie figures represented a 15

Families Wait
At Coal Mine
After Explosion
69 Arc Imprisoned
In Montana, With
Five Known Dead
BEARCRLEK. Mont., Mur. 1—(/Pi
—Numbed, silent relatives ol 69
miners imprisoned in the Smith
coal mine since an explosion Sat-
urday watted today while rescuers
combatted deadly gasses with an
emergency air blower set deep hi
tlie mine. At '-east five tinners
were known dead from the blast.
Their bodies were recovered.
Seven other bodies, a source who
refused to be quoted said, had I
been located but could not Imme-
diately be brought out because of
conditions in the tunnels.
Wives and children—some tight-
lipped and dry-eyed, others with
tear-streaked faces—waited tear-
fully today as rescue workers
I stumbled through the maze ol
Montana's largest coal mine.
Ret me workers said there was
only "one chance in a thousand"
that, any of the others known to
have been trapped 1-1.000 feel buck j
in the sloping shaft were alive.
Rescuers Suffer
Only three men had been
brought out alive. Doctors nt a
nearbv emergency hospital treated
02 members of the rescue crew
suffering from exposure to poison-
ous mine gasses. Eight of them
were sent to Billings. Mont., for
further treatment, rhey were in
serious condition.
Rescue crewmen feared that the
deadly black damp iiad penetrated
through the labyrinth of tunnels
to the entombed miners. Hun-
dreds of miners who volunteered
in the search were forced to wait
impatiently at the mine tipple
yesterday after tire poisonous at-
mosphere had forced other rescu-
ers from the mine.
Worst In Montana Histoiy
It was the worst mine disaster
in Montana's history. The three
survivors—Willard Reed. Eli Hout-
I en and Alex Hawthorne—were
working at the 4.800-foot level.
Among tlie 500 wives, children
relatives and friends who main-
tained a constant vigil at the mini
ntrancc ever since the dlsastei
whistle shuck terror into their
hearts was Mrs. Jean Summer-
\ille. Among the missing were her
husband. David. 60; her son, John
59; her brother, Abe McDonald

Nelsh. 61. and a nephew, Joseph
