SOUTHERN BLOC
BROKEN TODAY
Senator OvertOn Calls on
Colleagues to Bloc Arms
Embargo Repeal
BY RONALD G. VAN TINE
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, Oct. 5-(UP)-Sen.
John H. Overton, D., La, broke with
his southern Democratic colleagues
today and called on the Senate to
refuse the administration request
for repeal of the arms embargo Sec
ton of the neutrality act.
Overton, speaking on the third
day of the Senate'S historic debate
on U. S. neutrality, called for a firm
stand in defense of the arms en-
barge because its repeal would con-
stitute armed intervention" in Eu-
ropes war Most southern Demo-
Gratis support the administration
proposal for repeal of the embargo.
Overton was the third major
speaker presented by the Senate
forces opposed to repeal. Before he
spoke the Senate heard Sen. Charles
w. Tobey, R., N. H., read World War
accounts Of submarine activity
against U. S. shipping. He cited
them in support of his proposal for
delay in consideration of arms en-
barge repeal and immediate action
on title-and-carry neutrality provi-
sions.
/ ADMINISTRATORS claimed that
the Senate stood 81 for repeal of
tho arms embargo, 20 against and
undecided as Overton spoke. The
anti-repeal bloc disputed that.
LET us not entertain the fond de-
lusion," Overton warned, that rails
ing the embargo is not a step to-
ward war. Some of the American
dollars will be following American
arms and the American flag and
the American soldier will be follow
ing both to the battlefields of Eu-
rope.
sour supplying the European ma
tons now engaged in war with
American arms will be armed in
tervention on the part of America
because modern arms and mechan-
lied equipment are the main re-
quirements in modern warfare"
He urged retention Of the embar-
60 on shipments of arms, munitions
and implements of war from the
United States to belligerents with
the additional safeguard of title and
carry on all other commodities.
"The embargo provision was not,
he argued, inserted into our neu-
trality legislation chiefly for the
purpose of preventing the subma
rining of American vessels, As now
commended by the proponents of re-
peal"
''If that had been its chief pur-
pose" he said, "Such an objective
could have been accomplished by
merely prohibiting American vessels
from transporting arms, ammuni.
ton and implements of war to war
ring nations and the prohibition
would not have been against the
sale and export thereof"

gued.
IF Germany should retaliate by

FOR my part, I am unwilling t.

PETE WEBSTER, MATCHLESS
IN HIS BRILLIANCE OF
ARTISTRY & EXECUTION
=. BY Robert A. Flynn

Pete Webster as Mr.. Mason,
president of the "La-Tex-Okla.
Oil Company" in "Midnight Sha-
dow" a product of Morris Brown
College, Atlanta, Georgia, is today
the greatest scoop among Negro
actors. He stands easily in the
same bracket with such prominent
movie celebrities as Taylor. Mont
gomery, Flynn and Crosby, in
poise, brilliance of execution and
Interpretation. When he steps on
to the set, ne does not act but
rather embodies the warmth and
natural of human sentiment. He is
a straight-line character, no quirks
but just what it takes. He does
not simply play parts, he feels
them. He is the talk of Hollywood
and from the moment he is seen
in Midnight Shadow he S GER
tain to be acclaimed the outstand-
ing Negro actor of the screen.
Pete Webster is a thriller for
looks-all the fair damsels will
go wild about him. A good mixer,
amfable, romantic, sunny of ma
ture, adventurous, he stands on
top of the movie world, matchless
in his brilliance of artistry.
