Vt.. July 5. 1940. believe that our security and our way of life are seriously menaced at this moment. We therefore urge the following program: (1) Continued and effective aid to Great Britain to insure her survival in this war of democracy against the totalitarian powers. (2) Modification of any American laws which may hinder such effective aid. (3) Quick passage of the BurkeWadsworth bill for universal military training. with any necessary revisions. (4) Passage of such legislation as may be necessary to permit our citizens to volunteer for military service with Britain. (5) Speedy confirmation of the appointments of Secretary Stimson and Secretary Knox as outward evidence of the unity of all Americans in the cause of American defense. (6) Whatever legislation may be needed to facilitate the removal to the New World of refugee children for the duration of the war. I also have a similar petition from the town of Wolcott. Vt.. which I should like to have noted in the RECORD. although I do not care to have the names printed.
