Britain’s Arms
Program Is
Doubled
LONDON, Feb. 15 OP)— The
government announced that its
borrowing powers would finance
Britain’s huge rearmament pro
gram which doubled the limit
and is raised from one billion to
two billon dollars. Sir John Si
mon, Chancellor of the Excheq
uer, told the House of Commons
that the bill would be introduced
in the House to legalize the in
crease which he said was needed
to meet defense expenditures
: which are expected to reach two
I and a half billion dollars in 1939
alone.
When Britain’s arms program
was announced a year ago, the
1 cost was set by officials at seven
' and a half billion dollars in five
years, but subsequent statements
by government leaders indicated
| that it would be increased, pro
bably by fifty percent.
' Prime Minister Chamberlain
I told the House of Commons thait
the recognition of the insurgents
as the legal government of Spain
was “still under consideration”
■ but the cabinet is reported to
i have agreed thait the principal
, of such action is appropriate at
the moment.
