Touch Oils and Coppers

Washington, Dec. (AP)-SecAe-
tary Hull reiterated to the press to-
day this governments determination
to do all it can to discourage all alb
normal sale Of commodities classcd
as war materials TO warring Italy and
Ethiopia.
The State Department head made
this statement in parrying a direct
question on whether new legislative
authority would be required to EN-.
barge war materials as distinguished
from actual arms and munitions
Without commenting directly on
reports that legislation must precede
any official step to halt shipments Of
such commodities as oil and cotton,
Hull said there had been no variation
from government policy as set forth
In previous announcements aimed at
our curtailing excess shipments OF
war supplies to the belligerents.
The present neutrality law makes
it mandatory upon the President to
declare an embargo on exports OF
arms, ammunition and implements Of
war. It has been the general opinion
III responsible quarters that this does
not permit IN extension of the eul~
barge to materials such as copper
and oil, despite their value In the con.
duct of military campaigns.

May God grant her soul eternal peace.
From the earth each day
God gathers His bouquet
To brighten the Heavenly Shores,
So on January II, 1884
He called an Angel bright and fair
And said, II have searched everywhere
But the flower l need is there"
So, the Angel on the wings of love
Carried her to the seat above.
We grieve to see her go,
For we have learned to love her So,
We shall miss her more each day,
Yet isn't it happy though to know
Through out the great world of day
She is a flower in Gods bouquet.
