 The state department. instead of making an official declaration, indi- cated that the administration of the neutrality laws reposed in the depart nent of justice. while matters relating to exportations of arms and supplies ware for the treasury department to decide. The war department simply abided by it's original orders to the military commanders. to execute neu- trality laws as they understood them and if either the treasury or state de- partments chose to suggest any change ing the practice. the war department was ready to conform.
 Food Can Be Carried Across Line. Actually there was no real question before the departments after the ioca adviser of the insurrecto agent ders had been told by the treasury depart ment that the trade relations betweer Fl Paso and 'Juarez might proceed as heretofore. Thus at least foood sup. plies and merchandise may be carried across tE line. according to the usua practice No attempt was made to de. eide as to admission of arms as tha question had not been raised.
