The letter, to be opened after her ueaui, is as lonows: To My Dear Neighbors: I know I am failing and nearing my journey's end.

Sooner or later I shall be seen no more amorut you Some one else's light wiU Shine from by windows, I hope more brightly than did mine. I have enjoyed living here among you, much of the time a sitent sharer in your joys and sorrows, though you may not always have realized it. There is scarcely a house on either of the street to which the Angel of Heath has not come In these thirty five years that this has been my dwelling place. It has been a neighborhood of old and middle aged people, probably not more than a half dozen happy faced little ones have ever been a part of us to cheer us on our lonely way. But you all have been dear and kind neighbors and Ihojgh I have seen little of some of you in my own home, I have ever been conscious of your nearness and your willingness to respond to any needed I carry with me a pleasant'mem ory of your beautiful lives and pray that you may spend many more happy harmonious days together as neighbors.

Responsible British sources sa Britain could not possibly set up a western front on land and at the same time continue to dispatch aid to Kussia on tne scan promised Nevertheless, It was said, Stalin's statement is likely to embarass Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Many persons regarded the statement as directed over the government's head to the British people. Stalin doubtless knows of the broad dissatisfaction, by no fined to left wing circles, regarding Britain current Inactivity In oper ations while Russia fights a des Derate battle. Millions of Britons are admittedly little convinced by warnings of Ger man invasion while the Royal Ai: FoTce and Royal Navy hold mastery of the approaches to the British Isles and Germany's striking power is concentrated in the east. Churchill, it was said, holds enor mous popularity which has been confirmed by recent opinion polls but the confidence does not extend to several of his colleagues.

To some extent. It is thought, Stalin's address will increase the pressure on Churchill to make certain changes in the government although this still might require another dramatic Soviet setback. Authorities, however, continued to play down the possibility of any dramatic British military move to assist Russia and to emphasize the manifold difficulties of any action. Their view was that Britain did not need Stalin's word to see how opportune a military move would be but that without full knowledge of Impossible to form a sound Judg ment oi tne possibilities.

BILLION DOLLAR (Goncluded Ptom Page One) The Capital's great and near great an estimated 3,000 of them will gather at the Soviet embassy this afternoon to nibble crackers liberally spread with caviar and to sip champagne and vodka in commemoration of the Soviets' grejt annual holiday. But the emphasis today will be on developments of the last 24 hours. They included: Announcement in Moscow of the appointment of Maxim Litvmov, former foreign minister, as the new Soviet ambassador io Washington. Announcement by the State Department that Mr.

Roosevelt and Stalin have Arranged for a $1,000, 000,000 loan of lend lease funds to the Soviet Union to be paid back without interest over a period of 13 years, the first payment to be delayed for five years after the war. Stalin's appeal for a of annihilation against Germany and a "second Jront" to relieve the Red army. Release of a message of felicitation from Mr. Roosevelt Lo the people of Russia, through President Mi chail Kalinin of the Soviet Centra) Executive committee. It was the first United States' recognition of the revolutionary holiday since 1938.

The loan arrangement gives the Soviet Union a pool to draw upon for military equipment, munitions and raw materials Some of them will be paid for Hussian products, which Stalin assured Mr. Roosevelt would be expedited. Russia produces furs, magnesium ore, potash, phosphate rock and asbestos, among other things. In addition to war supplies the United States will send Russia leather, woolens, cotton and other materials. The exchange of messages between Mr.

Roosevelt, and Stalin indicated a confidence that American supplies could be delivered to Russia despite Germany's efforts to block them off. It was announced that deliveries under the loan arrangement would be commenced immediately and "fulfilled In the largest possible amounts." Mr. Kooseveit's message to Stalin and his telegram to Kalinin both eamea waTm expressions of admir atlon for the defense of the Hus sians against the German invasioi and assurances of American aid.

Sidney Hillman, co director the Office of Production Manage ment, called the strike of the Unl ted Aircraft Welders Union (Tnrie pendent) an "outlaw, wildcat proposition."
