Special to The NetOs.
jackson, Miss, Jan. 5.-The United
States Government, through the State
Department, is doing everything in its
power to have England remove turpen
tine and rosin from the contraband
of war list.
This declaration was made in tel
egram just received by Governor
Brewer from Secretary Bryan, of the
State Department.
Last week Governor Brewer tele-
graphed to Secretary Bryan a request
that he intercede to prevent such ar
ticles being made contraband of war.
He strongly urged the secretary and
State Department to use its best ef-
forts in this direction, saying that II
rosin and turpentine were considered
contraband of war it would greatly
hamper very large part of the COM
merce of South Mississippi.
The rosin and turpentine business
in South Mississippi is an exceedingly
important one, and Governor Brewer
is hopeful that it will not be inter-
fered with on account of the European
conflict.
Secretary Bryan. in his reply, states
that England considers resinous prod
ucts, turpentine oil and spirit as con-
traband because they enter into the
composition of certain explosives to
make them impervious to. dampness
However whether resin proper is in
cluded the secretary is now trying to
ascertain.
Bryan's Telegram.
The telegram of Secretary Bryan
reads as follows:
Gov. Earl Brewer, Jackson. Miss
Matter of placing resinous products
and turpentine on list of contraband
by Great Britain Is receiving the earn
est attention of department. 1t Is un-
derstood unofficially that the grounds
advanced for this action by Great
Britain is that resinous products and
turpentine are used in the manufac-
ture Of an explosive which Is imper-
1ious to dampness. The language in
the contraband list as received by the
from London is 'resinous
products, camphor and turpentine oil
and spirit The department will make
inquiry of the British government
whether the terms used will include
rosin proper.
