Collegiate population favors
lease-lend aid for Britain
By Student Opinion Surveys.
Austin. Tex., Feb. 4 - The be
lief that the United States must
help England on a lease-lend ba
sis, trust in a British victory, and
faith that democracy will survive
those are three patent manifes
tations of current collegiate
thought expressed through Stu
dent Opinion Surveys of America.
Sampling a representative cross
section of campuses, including Xe
biaska. with the cooperation of
the DAILY, the Surveys during
the first two weeks of January
interviewed typical students, pre
senting three queries that cover
one of the most crucial problems
ever faced by the U. S. These
were the questions, and the ma
jority answers given by American
college youth:
1. It has been suggested that
the U. 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",
