AMERICA STILL
/. PROFITING FROM
WAR SHIPMENTS
Large Material Exports to
Italy, Ethiopia Despite
Righteous Talk.

By Scripps- Hot0drd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Imple-
ments of warfare bearing the trade
mark Made in U. S. A" are being
shipped to both Italy and Ethiopia,
largely as yet to the former, de-
spite all the righteous indignation
eliminating in the Neutrality Act
hurried through in the closing days
of Congress.
Since Jan. l, a total of $3,063, 991
of various war materials, including
cartridges, motor trucks, copper,
scrap iron and the like, have been
exported by American manufacture
erS to Italy and Italian colonies
and $117,920 to Ethiopia, according
to figures compiled here which I'M
doubtedly tell only part of the
story.
Interest was revived here today in
possible further orders by intima-
tons from Ethiopian Counsel Shaw
in New York, who pointed out that
there is nothing in the Neutrality
Act to prevent sale of war munitions
until war actually is declared.
The embargo provided is operative
only after a declaration of war.
However, it soon will be possible

to find out just what American
companies are exporting war ma
terials to Italy and Ethiopia and in
what amounts, for the Neutrality

Between Jan. l and June 30,
American manufacturers exported
400 metallic cartridges, SO motor
trucks and III automobiles to Italy,
and 1000 motor trucks and Is auto
mobiles to Italian colonies.

Law Is Designed TO Replace
Pact Declared Void by
High Court.

BIZ JHifsd Prcss
WASHINGTON. Aug. 30.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt yesterday signed the
CroSser Rail Retirement Act, de-
signed to replace last years pact
which was declared invalid by the
Supreme Court.
At the same time. the President
approved a companion measure
levying taxes Of 81 per cent on rail-
road pay rolls and 81 per cent on
rail workers salaries, intended 20
raise funds with which the Federal
government Will make pension pay
ments to retired workers.
The act contemplates to meet OBJ
jections raised by the Supreme
Court against the original pension
act, by basing the systems Of tax
ing powers Of Congress rather than
on congressional authority TO regu-
late interstate commerce.
President to Appoint Board
The retirement act provides an
nuities payments by the Treasury
10 retired railway workers, who
must retire at the age Of 65 years
or who may do so at the end Of 80
years service. To take advantage
of the latter clause. however. they
muse be over so years Of age.
The act calls for appointment by
the President Of a three man rail-
road retirement board to admin
lister the act. one member is to be
recommended by employees, one
recommended by the carriers and
the third IS to be appointed with
out recommendation OF either party.
The board also is called upon to
submit a special report within four
years recommending changes bene-
fetal TO the system.
Maximum Is S120 a Month
Another commission set up un-
der the bill composed Of three Sen
ators, three representatives and
three persons to be chosen by the
President, is instructed to make a
thorough study Of the retirement
plan and submit recommendations
to Congress next year for additional
perfecting legislation.
The amount of the annuity would
be determined by computing wages
and length Of services Of employees.
A maximum is set up, however, Of
S120 a month.
To receive the maximum amount
a worker must have received a basic
wage of $500 a month with 30 years
service. Another provision specifies
that, on the death of an emplove
who is receiving or is entitled %
receive an annuity. one-half of the
amount due him at the time is con-
tinued as a payment to his estate

Refusal, he said, would be based
on the grounds Italy would want

An Arms Embargo
Fear is felt the three powers
are attempting to influence Presi-

arms embargo against Ethiopia
even before war breaks out.
In Ethiopian circles it was felt
the big powers are interested in
avoiding war more for the sake
OF the League than in conSidera-

The orchestra shell mounted on

the sound was so well reflected
that the amplification system
seemed superfluous. The usual
distortion was present because Of
the positions of the microphones.
The harp sounded loud out Of all
proportion, the 'cellos were not

were too loud. If microphoneS
had been hung from the ceiling
of the shell instead of being placed
on a standard next to certain
instruments, a better mixture OF
the sound would have resulted.

ira would be heard in its. purity
of tone without the amplification
