A ward at Walter Reed Hospital,
hlled with men who know all about
war because they're wrecks Of the last
one and the one before, went on record
yesterday against any more war.
Some were bed fast, others in wheel
chairs. Some moved around right
jauntily. chatting with their buddies,
now indoors, now out in the bright
October sunshine.
They had come from many parts OF
this country for the repeated patch
ing-up that follow war disabilities.
They greeted a reporter with the off,
hand camaraderie characteristic Of
boys in the troop trains IS years ago,
giving in picturesque phrases their
varied views on the Italian Ethiopian
war.
From his wheel chair, Dr. w. A.
McGovern of Richmond solemnly said:
Il am very much distressed to think
we have to have a war in the world
again, with the suffering it means to
humanity. sincerely hope other
nations will not be pulled into It,"
Leave War "Oyer There"
Out on the sun porch sandy haired,
blue-eyed Thomas Sheridan Of this
city had the same idea: Leave it over
there! And I hope Roosevelt won't
make the same mistakes that Wilson
did in keeping us out of war;"
Richard Seek. 86. only Civil War
veteran in the ward, came out with a
fiat and final: I'm certain We don't
want nothing to do with It,"

on the outcome.
The taxes in dispute were collected
from spectators when they bought
their individual tickets.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, October 5-Hans Kerrl,
Nad minister for church affairs, to-
day announced the creation of a COM
mittee composed of churchmen of un-

gelical Church.
This was Kerrl's first move since
he was empowered by Reichsfuehrer
Hitlers decree of September % to
take any action necessary ito pro-
tect the stability Of the German Evan
gelical Church"
Churchmen opposed to the decree
said Kerrl's power would enable him
to create a single Reich church and
give him more power over the Pro-
testant confessional synod than the
Pope over the Catholic Church"
Kerrl's committee is expected by
ehurchmen to comprise church di-
rectorate he has long been reported as
intending to name. Its duties will
be to lead and represent the German
Evangelical Church and issue ordi-
nances on the inner church affairs"
The committee also will name and
discharge church officials with 1.-The

MITCHELL URGES
CAUTION TO RACE
Says italians Here Should
Not Be Charged With War
Responsibility.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Members Of his race were advised
BY Representative Mitchell, Democrat,
of Illinois, only colored member Of
Congress, not to demonstrate against
italians in this country because OF
the Ethiopian situation.
While clearly hostile to what he
termed italian exploitation" in Africa,
Mitchell applauded the policy Of BAN
ming munitions exports and supported
President Roosevelt's peace stand.
IT don't believe we ought to charge
the Italians in this country with any
responsibility for it." he told news
paper men in his first statement on
the Ethiopian conflict. II think dem
onstrations such as we have had in
New York and Chicago are wholly
unwarranted and are calculated to do
my people harm"
Sees Possible Danger.
Mitchell, the first colored Democrat
ever to come to Congress, intiniated he
felt situation might develop in which
the good neighbor" policy might al
low man to go to the rescue of his
friend even when 1t incurred danger
If he knew his friend was not the
guilty party.
Mitchell added. however, that he
thought the United States has
right to remain neutral unless there
is something else to bring us in"
II don't believe the temper Of the
people of the United States would stand
for participation in any foreign wars"
he said.
Italy Called Exploiter.
II regard the attitude Of Italy as
being purely well-planned and de-
lberate move to exploit what she re-
CARDS as weaker nation. To my
mind, there is no more justification in
Italy's attack on Ethiopian than there
would be in a bandit taking a machine
gun and holding up bank.
Everybody I have talked with
white and colored-is in sympathy with
Ethiopia and feels that Italy is in the
, wrong to jump on a weaker nation.
OF course, I can see Italy's viewpoint,
too-that nobody interfered with
others in their exploitation. But I
think the day of exploitation is past. J."

been shipped to Ethiopia.
The long arm Of the Customs Serv-
ice and the Coast Guard will enforce
the embargo.
These two Treasury agencies will
swing into action Immediately to pre-
vent shipment of arms, munitions
and implements OF war" to the bel
lgerents
The Customs Bureau was to tele-
graph the embargo order and the
list of prohibited articles Immediately
to all collectors and agents.
The 5000 employees of the Customs
Service must inspect all exports from
the country, as well as imports, and
they will be directed to be on the
alert for shipments which they sus-
pect might contain embargoed articles.
Should there be suspicion of an
attempt to evade the embargo, the
$50 members Of the customs agency
service-the detective force of the
unit-will swing into action.
In addition, the 5000 members Of
the Coast Guard will be instructed
to cooperate in the detection of pos
sible smuggling.
Exports to Be ScrutiniIed.
Customs officials said that nothing
can be loaded on ships for export
without first undergoing their scrutiny
While admitting the possibility that
munitions shipments might be dis
guised, or directed to some neutral
nation for eventual trans-Shipment
to the belligerents. they said the de
tective force" would guard against
this.
The State Department received no
further word during the day regard
ing evacuation from Adds Ababa Of
three Seventh Day Adventist mothers
and six children. There was some
concern at missionary headquarters
in Takoma Park, Md, over the situa-

FRANCE TO BOOST
NAVAL BUILDING
Pietri Tells Cadets Britain,
U. S. and Japan Have In
creased Programs.
BY the Associated Press.


BREST. France. october 5-The
French feet will not remain the
cinderella of the Washington naval
conference" Francois Pietri, minister
of the navy, told naval cadets here
today before their departure for their
annual training cruise.
The navy minister said that Great
Britain, the United States, and Japan
had all increased their building pro-
grams and that since Germany had
gained its naval freedom" steel pur-
chases by the Reich had been tripled
to speed up construction Of the TO-
600-ton pocket battleshipe."
Treaty Terms Observed.
France had observed the terms Of
the Washington naval treaty in all
respects, NJ. Pietri said, but when
Great Britain, who was the leader
of the movement for naval treaties,
shows that she intends to launch a
program Of construction, France must
follow her example Ito protect her in
terests and her prestige"
British Justific alton.
Britain" Pietri said, "is justified
in her naval armaments by the basic
necessities of her defense. Her ex-
tensive coasts and the long lines Of
communication linking the empire
make it necessary"
I'VE have no intention of deserting
the conference table or to refuse to
abide by decisions reached at these
conferences, he continued, Frances
aim is to maintain peace and We will
take all measures necessary to achieve
this aim"

Even genuine paper is used in making

obtained by bleaching, with chemical

leaving the paper clear and white, and
upon this paper the larger figure is
printed. In the days when the larger
bills served as United States currency
two heavy lines of silk thread appeared
in them. Then it was easy for coun-
