j. 5. MUNITIONS
POLICY IS
STUDIED

Representing the most far.
reaching move ever undertaken
by this Government to control the
American traffic in implements
of war, the newly created National
Munitions Control Board met to.
day to formulate its policies.
AS the hour approached for its
first meeting, it was learned that
the board probably would sidestep
the politically delicate question of
whether such raw materials as
cotton, copper, steel, food and ma
chinery should be listed as nipple
mentS of war.
The list which the board will be
asked to approve as implements
of war" will be confined to actual
arms and munitions.
The question Of whether this list
should be extended to include raw
materials, as cotton, steel copper
and wheat, will be left COR Presi-
dent Roosevelt to decide if ard
when he is called upon to impose
an embargo against the shipment
Of war supplies to foreign nations
in conflict.
Will Evade Issue
The view prevails generally at
the State Department that it will
be impossible to assure American
neutrality in the next war unless
raw materials are included among
the contraband list of war sup
plies.
However, this viewpoint raises a
difficult issue. It would mean vir.
tual cessation of commercial trade
with the bclligerents and, while
the Government might be willing
to take that drastic step in the
case Of small nations at war, there
are those in the Administration
who doubt whether the President
would receive popular support for
the cessation of trade with such
nations as Great Britain and
France.
In order to avoid raising that
issue at the present time, the ma
tional munitions board was ex-
pected to ignore for the present
the question of including raw ma
terials in the war-supplies list.
The board met under the chair
YnanShin nf Secretary 0f State
Cordell. Other members of the
board are the Secretaries of the
Treasury, Commerce, War, and
Navy.
In the absence Of the Secre.
taries of the Treasury and War,
the latter two departments are ex-
pected to be represented by T.
Jefferson Coolidge, Acting Score.
tary of the Treasury, and Mai.
Gen. George s. Simonds, deputy
chief of staff.

At CATHOLIC
CONGRESS

CLEVELAND, Sept. "a 0.N.S0.
A prayer for peace was raised to-
day by Patrick Cardinal Hayes,
personal representative Of Pope
Plus XI to the seventh annual Eu.
charistic Congress, at the first Of
five solemn pontifical masses to
be celebrated at this outstanding
gathering of Catholics. Cardinal
Hayes said:
MAY this congress prove a
mighty prayer that the menac-
ing clouds of war may be diSsi-
pated by the radiant SplendOr Of
the Prince of Peace"
QUOTES SCRIPTURE
He read the thirty,fourth verse,
eighth chapter of John:
"A new commandment I give
unto you; that you love one an
other. By this all men know
that you are my disciples if you
have love for one another"
Archbishop o. P. McNicholas,
Of Cincinnati, delivered the SER
mon at the service in Public Hall,
crowded again today as it was
last night by 10000 of the Catho-
lie Church clergy and laymen who
have thronged into the city from
every part of the nation. His
theme was "Holy Eucharist, the
Source and Inspiration Of Catho-
lie Action" E. -. 80. -. .......
Choir of 5000 Sings
A choir of $500 voices-3,000
laymen, 800 priests and semi
narians, and 300 boys-sang under
the direction Of the Rev. Francis
p. Johns.
Wide interest at today's session
centered on Alfred E. Smith, who
arrived by special train with
Cardinal Hayes from New York.
He will address the general as
Sembly of the congress tonight on
the topic, Communist or Com
munionist?"
Silent on Politics
Although Smith has steadfastly
declined to discuss politics here
since his arrival because of the
solemn nature of the meeting, he
is expected to devote his address
tonight to discussion Of the
power of religion and its influence
upon Democracy.
James A. Farley, personal rep
resentative of President Roosevelt,
brought the Chief Executives
greetings to the Congress last
night at civic reception in Public
Hall for Cardinal Hayes. Farley
read President Roosevelt'S letter,
which said, in part:
religion aids all because it
teaches that we are all children
of the one heavenly Father and
that the same heavenly Father
aids us. without it no nation
can long endure. 1t is most sig
nificant that from our begin
nings to this day we have un-
failingly champiOned its free ex-
ercise and encouraged it by the
protection of our laws and our
institutions"
