Shl Willkie had clearly rejected every concession policy - The Abenten of the axis declared in their propaganda for Willkii that he would do nothing that could involve America in a war. Roosevelt, on the other hand, was determined to continue his offensive policy, and this was destined to drag the USá into the war. - Chicago Daily News writes that all this propaganda was in vain on the axis and that the American people showed that it was not afraid of the war threat.

The German shortwave transmitter for South America explained: As far as the re-election of Roosevelt is concerned, this is of no significance to Europe or to world politics.

No leases have been concluded, because the bases are to be set up and maintained by the states on whose ground they are located. The western hemisphere is strong enough to ward off totalitarian attacks and to support England. Roosevelt drove today under great cheer of the population through the streets of Washington. Lo.ooo people accompanied him on his way to the White House. The exact number of votes in the Senate and the Representative House is not yet known. However, this is only about the fact that one does not yet know how large the majority of Roosevelt is. Report of the Ministry of Aviation: Last night British bombers were back over Berlin.
