WEEKS AND DENDY URGE :PENROSE ID A|D DYE EMBARGO
[Hepubllcan A. P. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON. Aug. 5-Secreta- ries Weeks and Denby have come out in support of an embargo on dyes and chemicals and have urged restoration to the Fordney tariff bill of the em- bargo provision, stricken out by the house. Their attitude was made known today when Chairman Pen rose of the senate finance committee made public letters from them to the committee.
 The cabinet officers explained that they favored an embargo because of national defense necessities.
 It is of great value to the navy. MT. Denby wrote, Ito encourage the development of chemical activities in the manufacture of all products con- nected with explosives and gases. es- pecially those manufacturers whose establishments can easily be diverted to the manufacture of war materials Restoration of the embargo clause will be of material help and I will greatly appreciate your assistance. Embargo orders have been found necessary in England, Japan, France and Italy, MT. Weeks said. He also declared that the chemical industry was vital to Germany in prolongins her efforts in the world war and ex- pressed the opinion that high ex- piosives and war gases would play 2 far more important part in future wars.

They stopped she said, at the entrance while she looked for a lucky penny she had buried there. As they were searching for the coin the shot was fired.
 Mrs. Lizzie Besenty. a neighbor, told the Beverly Hills police she heard two shots, followed by the said she saw an automobile disap- bearing down a drive near the cot tage.
 Examination of Kennedy's clothing showed he had a number of impor- tant papers and wallet containing S56. Several articles of jewelry worn by him had not been disturbed.
 Police records here show that Ken nedy was attacked and beaten on the street about four years ago by two men who he said were strangers to him.
 Investigators said the shot which killed Kennedy was fired from dis tance of about 30 feet. A revolver, fully loaded, was found beside the body Mrs. Cbernchain said this be- longed to Kennedy. She said the lat ter was not instantly killed but said Good night, Madelyne" to her be- fore expiring.

 Tn my opinion and judgment the savings outlined herein can be made through administrative rather than legislative action. I believe that they will be made. But after years of experience as a member of the legislature and as an administrative officer of this state. including four years as chief executive through three legislative sessions. and bearing in mind the fac, that legislators are, after all. only human and actuated by the demands of their friends and constituents which demands are in turn reflected in their votes on mat ters pertaining to fiscal apportion- rient. l do not honestly believe that any material reduction would be ob- tained through a special session of the legislature.

 seemed to have difficulty in raising

An Eastern Doctor
 Sent Me

An eastern doctor, my own physician, sent me to Southern California years ago. I was merely slightly overworked, needing change of scene and rest. He told me there was but one place in this country that was different from all others.
 He urged that need of complete change and almost forced me to go there. I've gone there fourteen summers since -lured there by the land itself.
 And never since have I been run down" during my business years.
 And so if you ask me about summer vacations I'll say, Southern California" because one week there has always done me more good than three at any other place.
 There are fine hotels or modest board ing houses, and living costs are low. Southern California lies near the National Parks that the Government is encouraging people to visit now.
