S. allow Britain to have planes, guns, and other war ma terials on a lease or mortgage basis, with no cash payment. These materials would be re turned or replaced with new equipment when the war is over. Do you approve or disapprove of the plan? APPROVE, said 67, 2. Do you think Britain or Germany will win the war? BRITAIN, said 83':, 3. Do you think American democracy will survive if Brit ain is beaten by Germany? YES, said 71", Dr. Thomas D.
