Abstract

Reports on the question of foreign policy and aid from the administration to France and England by the United States. Information on the survey conducted by the Institute of Public Opinion on this question; Report that the public has endorsed the Neutrality Act, and favored amendments which would give the President less discretion in applying it only against aggressors; Public opinion on the question of the United States' involvement in the European war; View that the upper income group was in favor of American aid to England and France, as compared to the lower income group; View that the argument of those who favor collective security is that readiness to form a common front against the Fascist dictators will avoid the outbreak of war; Need for a more positive foreign policy, which will express the United States better and will leave it less at the mercy of others; Provisions of the Neutrality Act; View that if the public opinion is in favor of these provisions, let the President negotiate and the Senate confirm a definite understanding with Great Britain and France.
