In Washington... President Roosevelt announces that a loan of $1,000,000,000. is to be given to the USSR to help finance their participation in Lend-Lease.

From the South Atlantic... The US cruiser Omaha intercepts and captures the German blockade runner Odenwald, which is carrying a cargo of rubber from Japan, off the coast of Brazil. This is first successful action by the US patrols in the Atlantic.
