Washington, June 4.
After a long conference yesterday with Mr. John Winant, United States Ambassador to Britain, President Roosevelt had a discuss: miral King, Commande the United States Atlantic Fleet.
Admiral Kigg is the officer chiefly responsible for carrying out the President's promise that goods from the United States shall be delivered safely to Britain.
Mr. Cordell Hull, Secretary of State, also had consultations with Mr. Neville Butler, British Minister in Washington, and with Mr, Noel Hall, who represents the British Ministry of Economic Warfare.
The talk with Mr. Hull is taken in Washington as a sign that due measures are being considered to prevent supplies reaching the Axis indirectly from North and South America.
When Mr. Winant entered the White House yesterday for his conference with the President, it was noted that he was carrying a bulging brief case. He remained for luncheon, at which Mr. Harry Hopkins. who is charged with carrying out the aid-for-Britain programme, was also present.—Reuter.
