WILSON FIXES
FOOD EMBARGO
eHlPMENTs OF FOOD, FUEL ANt
RAW MATERIAL ARE UNDER
BAN.

eOntxe Duties We Owe 70
Neutral Nations.

Washington. d. C.-President VII
son has proclaimed to the world
the establishment by the Unit
ed States Of an embargo upon indis.
pensable commodities such as grain
and certain other foodstuffs. fuel and
raw products needed in the manufac,
ture of war materials. The order will
60 into effect on July Is.
During the rest of the war the arti.
cles specified may only be shipped
from American ports upon license
granted by the Exports Council, Of
which several cabinet members and
Herbert C. Hoover. food administrator;
are members.
The initial list Of commodities, the
shipment OF which will be restricted
includes coal. coke. fuel. oils. kero
sene, gasoline, including bunkers: food
grains. -four and meal therefrom, fod
der and feeds. meats and fats, pig
iron. steel billets. scrap iron and
scrap steel, ferro-manganese, fertiliz
ers, arms. ammunition and explosives
Y. s. First, Says Wilson.
The allies OF. America in the war
and neutrals. both In the eastern and
western hemispheres, are embraced in
the embargo restrictions as well as
the Germanic powers. Only the lat
ter, however, will be entirely denied
supplies from this country. The allies
and neutrals will be given what the
United States can spare, providing
neutrals don't attempt to transship
any part of their apportionment to the
enemy,
In explanation Of his action, Presi-
dent Wilson issued this statement:
'In controlling by license the en-
port Of certain indispensable commodi.
ties from the United States, the gov
ernment has first and chiefly in view
the amelioration of the food condi.
tions which have arisen or are likely
to arise In our own country before
new crops are harvested. Not only
is the conservation Of our prime food
and fodder supplies a matter which
vitality concerns our own people, but
the retention Of an adequate supply
of raw materials Is essential to our
program OF military and naval con
struction and the continuance OF oul
necessary domestic activities. We
shall. therefore. similarly safeguard
all our fundamental supplies.
