TO CONTROL EXPORT OF
 COTTON, LUMBER, SUGAR
To Be Added to List of Commodities
 That Require Licenses.

Washington. Aug. 7-Three import ant commodities-cotto lumber and suga-probably will be put under ex- port control soon by President Wil~ son The exports council, it is un- derstood, already has recommended that they be added to the list of goods for whose shipment out of the country license is required.
 Goods that now cannot be exported without license include: foods, feed sfuffs. iron, steel and explosives. By adding cotton, lumber and sugar to these the government will extend it's control to cover the most important of its export materials
 E Officials who comprise the exports couocil are particularly desirous that the shipment of cotton be controlled. This commodity of which Germany is in desperate need has gone to the European neutral countries in large quantities within the last three years.
 Fsports that the nited States would embargo coal shipments to Canada were denied officially today.
 New England users have complain ed that while coal is scarce ill the northeastern states, great shipments are going through to Canadian con- EumerS.

GERMANY DEMANDS GOLD
 FROM SWITZERLAND
Confirmation of Report Has Reached
 the State Department.

Washington. Aug. 7-Confrmation has reached the state department of the report that Germany has demand ed a loan in gold from Switzerland in return for coal In official circles here this IS taken as emphasizing stories of financial difficulties in which Ger many finds herself
 Germany is in sad need of gold to meet the obligations which she has incurred wi those neutrals with whom she can trade, for German paper money is no longer in favor and tn. value of the German mark is depreciatinS almost to the vanishing point.
 Switzerland is resisting the demand and if it is pressed is in far better snasse than Holland the Scandi- nav ian countries to meet either mili- tary or ecsz>1TnIc aggression from Germany.
 Under present conditions, Switzer- land is dependent on Germany for her coal. but it is believed the allies may be able to meet her needs
