IMPORT LICENSING

Under a proclamation that was
issued by the President yesterday
imports will be required to be
licensed just as are now exports.
The licensing is placed under the
direct supervision Of the war
trade board and the provisions
are very much the same as those
for the licensing of exports. The
purpose is to prevent the utiliza-
ton Of tonnage which might
bring greatly needed commodi-
ties to the United States for the
carrying of nonessential imports.
New rulings in regard to the
licensing OF exports were also
promulgated, These prohibit the
exports of ores and steel OF GER
tain classes not previously pro-
hibited, lumber and surgical in
struments and a number Of other
commodities from being exported
except under special licenses.
