when i arrived in france, i was greeted by the first lady. i especially wanted to see how britain and its industrial leaders found out how to export the things needed to get those dollars to balance their foreign trade. mr. griffith told me they made trips across america to get the necessary contract. they say the lord helps those who help themselves, and the martial plan seems to be like the lord in that respect. there is no doubt in my mind how much martial plan funds have helped. but some facts are worrying. worrying. it is hard to see how europe can recover as long as trade with eastern europe remains at the present low level. i had my ideas pretty well sorted out for the time i went to visit our airmen. europe has recovered roughly to the 1938 level but that is not enough. a europe with greater population and more social justice must have a far higher production level. above all, there must be greater integration. our men on the spot knew this. >> will you go ahead and ask questions? >> mrs. roosevelt, did you see a definite improvement

both fear what britain or france would do, a loyalty to britain or france will do in the domestics here, domestic politics. >> you messenger that jefferson and madison begin to work together. madison is one of the writers of the federalist in favor of the who project but didn't take long. they're fellow virginians -- to work together in favor of france and yao said nearly treasonous activity. tell us how our phoned -- future presidents were basically treasonous in the cabinet. >> yeah. treasonous is a strong term but disloyal to washington. jefferson and madison set up -- they invite one of madison's college classmates to -- they give him the -- meaningless job in the state department as a translator and doesn't even speak foreign languages, and -- >> five employees and puts one in? that's interesting. >> i don't know if he counts as one of the five but the idea was that he would start a national newspaper and be friendlier to the republican cause, which he did. he was a vicious critic of hamilton and a fawning admirer of jefferson. and, again, washington would have seen this as an act

i must stay, edging france will be close.win the title, it is some turnaround. there's lots of positivity, isn't there? it's a massive turnaround. when you consider last year, we only won three games, and to work... to then be into a position when we were going into a grand slam, some massive turnaround. i think it's a combination of things. i think sorting out our defence really helped, which we started doing. that has given us a platform to then see this style of attack, which i think took a little time to bed and with the players. they seem to be comfortable with it and more importantly, they seem to be enjoying themselves, which is when you get the most —— the best performance from any team. you get the most -- the best performance from any team. philippi, lovel to performance from any team. philippi, lovely to have — performance from any team. philippi, lovely to have you _ performance from any team. philippi, lovely to have you with _ performance from any team. philippi, lovely to have you with us _ performance from any
