ROOSEVELT TO ASK
EMBARGO ON ARMS
Will Seek Authority From
Congress to Place Ban
at Any Time.

BY the Associated Press.
The American Government has in
formed Great Britain it will press for
legislation permitting the President to
declare an arms embargo against any
nation in the world.
The statement of American policy
was made through the British Ambas-
sador, Sir Ronald Lindsay, in response
to inquiry.
Great Britain yesterday withdrew an
arms embargo declared several days ago
against China and Japan. It's revoca-
ton followed failure of any other ma
ton to take similar action.
Sought by Hoover.
The embargo also caused some COM
plant on the ground 1t placed China
at a disadvantage as compared to Japan
with It's already full supply Of war ma
teriak.
President Roosevelt is expected to ask
enactment of the arms embargo legis-
lation at the special session Of Con-
gress, although probably not in special
message.
The authorization for the Chief Ex-
ecutive to forbid the shipment Of war
materials to any foreign country was
requested some weeks ago by President
Hoover, but failed to get action in the
short session of Congress
1t passed the Senate once, but was
held up on motion for reconsideration
The House showed disposition to re-
strict the embargo to this hemisphere.
Adoption Expected.
With the present Congress heavily
Democratic, adoption of the resolution
before long is expected. The British
inquiry was made before that govern
ment yesterday revoked its embargo.
The State Department here, in reply
ing, explained that unless legislation
was passed by Congress the executive
branch would have no authority to take
such a step.
It was made plain that the Govern
ment would seek such authority from
Congress without delay.
Exactly what use would be made OF
such power has not yet been disclosed.
1t indicates, however, disposition to
back up the pact of Paris outlawing
war by refusing to supply the means
Of conflict.
It could have a distinct bearing upon
the undeclared wars in the Far East
between Japan and China and in South
America between Colombia and Peru
and Paraguay and Bolivia.
The embargo probably would not be
used until the United States had been
assured that most of the other impor-
tant nations would take similar step.

GOLD RULES AIMED
AT BIG HOARDERS
Woodin Declares Regulations
Now Being Prepared
Will Be Stringent.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
| Secretary Woodin said today that
regulations being drafted to cover
boarding of gold or gold certificates
would not be so drastic as to include a
person having in his possession small
sum of such money, or those moving
such sums In normal trade.
The regulations will be stringent,
however, in dealing with persons who
have withdrawn large amounts of gold
or certificates and who now are hoard
ing it.
Thus any one having $50 or 500 in
gold or a gold certificate or who offered
it in payment would not be subject to
prosecution.
The Federal Reserve Board last week
asked its member banks to forward to
Washington today a list of names of
all who in the last two years withdrew
gold or gold certificates.
Double Tax Authorized.
The date upon which the lists were
to be turned in was extended, how
ever, until Friday, at the close Of busi-
ness.
Therefore, all persons of whom there
is record of gold Withdrawals, no mat
ter what the size, will have their names
on the lists sent to the Treasury unless
they exchange their gold for ether cur
rency before the close of business Fri
day.
The Presidents proclamation estab.
fishing a banking holiday prohibited
boarding.
The emergency banking act authorizes
the setting of a double tax on boarded
gold.
The Treasury regulations on gold
boarding, under which the Depart
ment OF Justice would proceed with
prosecutions, will establish the limits
upon what Is or what Is not considered
boarding.
At the Department Of Justice, which
is charged with the prosecution CT law
violators, it was said no steps would be
taken under the law until the Treasury
determined the cour:e.
Reports to the Treasury indicated
that scme banks were cooperating to
the extent Of asking these drawing
money from safe deposit boxes to i'm
mediately change any gold or gold
certificates at the banks paying teller
windows to avoid placing them in cir
culation, with the possibility they might
be boarded by another person.
The restrictions en- gold do not apply
to employment Of the metal in industrial
arts. Secretary Woodip last Friday
issued a regulation making gold avail
able for all normal Industrial uses.
There will be no interference with
numismaticians. Reports to the Treas
ury have indicated that many old coins
and currency, particularly the old large
sized bills kept as keepsakes, have been
placed in circulation and are finding
their way back to the Treasury fer
redemption.

QUAKE-R|DDENAREA

Mild TremorS Still Continue
as Business Is Being
Resumed.
BY the Associated Press.


LONG BEACH, Calf, March A.
Newborn business life stirred in this
quake-ridden city today with the echo
Of Fridays devastating earth shocks
still in the ears of the populace.
All banks which could complete tenn
porary repairs meeting with the ap-
proval of building inspectors planned to
open at 10 am, SO hours after the first
quake and IL days after Gov. James
Rolph, jr., declared State bank holi-
day.
A few opened yesterday and allowed
Withdrawals Of SIS person, but all
restrictions were to be removed today
in an effort to aid the partially par
alyzed community.
Bread Lines Shortened.
Bread lines shortened as Mondays
bank openings enabled many persons
who had funds tied up in the institu-
tionS to obtain money to buy food
The bread lines contain many of the
well-to-do residents of the city who can
find no means to do their own cooking.
The gas supply is off indefinitely and
there is no means of cooking other than
by electricity and over open fires in
yards.
There were two severe tremors yes
terday, one at SIG am. and the other
near noon. A mild tremor, the thirty
ninth shock of the series, was felt at
4:19 am. today. Many of the more
timid residents continued to camp in
tents in their yards, fearful Of another
devastating shock.
The Rehabilitation Committee took
definite steps to restore business in the
belief an immediate resumption will re-

persons something to do.

Era Of Fear Passed.
Secretary Woodin said today bank
deposits were exceeding Withdrawals
generally in the cities where banks were
being reopened and that the era Of
fear was completely passed.
He made his statement after reports
had come to the Federal Reserve Board
Of progress toward reopening the banks
in the country.
At about the same time. the Senate
Banking Committee was approving the
Robinson bill to allow State banks to
borrow from the Federal Reserve, but
with the understanding that the meas
ure was not to be pressed II it were
found that present laws met the needs.
Referring in his talk with newspaper
men to the fact that the banks had
started reopening on March 13, Woodin
said:
THE people have been cooperating
with US magnihcently. I am beginning
to believe superstition I have long
maintained-that is, that 13 is my
lucky number.

permitted to reopen. The fact that de-
positors are assured they may exchange
their deposits for a currency with gov
ernmental backing should eliminate
their desire to convert their deposits
into currency.
There is, therefore, nothing directly
infiationary in this measure. The
chances for an early expansion of the
circulating medium as a whole are bet
ter If currency in circulation does not
increase, for If bank deposits cease to
decline the banks will be reader to ex-
pand their loans"
Prof Cox predicted the permanent
banking legislation the President will
soon recommend would call for unifica-
tion under Federal control of the entire
banking system and sanction branch
