absolute control over its exports. II
prohibits the export of all articles of
commerce to enemy and neutral coun-
tries, but it is the intention to care
for the needs of neutrals, by licensing
shipments of such expectations as can
be spared after the wants of the Unit
ed States and its allies have been sup
piled. A large number of cOmmodl-
ties are added to those named in the
original embargo order, including fats
IF all kinds, other foods. construction
materials and other articles necessary
to the successful prosecution of the
war by this government; also gold,
bullion, currency and evidences of in
debtedness-this in order to conserve
the immense store of gold that has
been accumulated by the United States
in the last three years.
In a statement accompanying the
order the president said:
THE purpose and effect Of this
proclamation is not export prohibition
but merely export control. 1t is not
the intention to interfere unnecesSar-
lily with our foreign trade but our
own domestic needs must be adequate
ly safeguarded and there Is the added
duty of meeting the necessities of all
the nations at war with the imperial
German government
after these needs are met it Is our
wish and intention to minister to the
needs of the neutral nations as far as
our own resources permit. This task
will be discharged without other than
the very proper qualification that the
liberation of our surplus products
shall not be made the occasion of bene-
fit to the enemy, either directly or in
directly"

sion in Moscow promises at least to
clarity the situation there and def
nitely line up the forces that are striv-
ing to gain control in the new republic.
Premier Kerensky admittedly is anx-
iOus as to the future, but has stated
fatty and fearlessly the position of the
government of which he is the head
and leading spirit. He warned those
who thought the time had come TO
overthrow the revolutionary power
with arms that his patience had Its
limits and that those who went be-
yond them would have TO settle with a
government that will make them re-
member the time of carbon He
