To Pro-Axis
Blacklist
Aoheson Says Firms
Outside Hemisphere
Will Be Included
Earlier Story on Page Az

'LaIHci StOiy Oh age h-S'|
The United States plans to extend
its blacklist of pro-Axis firms in
Latin America banned from trade
and financial dealings with this
country to cover such firms in all
nations with which any trade is
going on except the British Empire,
Assistant Secretary of State Dean
Acheson said this afternoon.
Persons or corporations acting for
Germany or Italy or those in whose
hands American exports would not
be in the interest of national de-
Tense will 60 on the blacklist, Mr..
AcheSon said.
He said the list would be extended
to various countries outside this
hemisphere as soon as studies and
Investigations now under way are
completed. Acting Secretary of
States Welles had said earlier in the
day that the United States was con-
sidering such a move.
Would Affect Others.
President Roosevelt yesterday pro-
claimed a list of 300 business
agents and firms in Latin America
as blocked nationals" who are to
be treated as German and Italian
nationals so far as trade and finan-
cial dealings here are concerned.
The Presidents order prohibits
expectation to firms on the black
list of articles subject to the Export
Control Act, which includes virtual
ly all strategic war materials, with
out special license. Their funds in
the United States also are frozen"
as are those of Germans and Ital-
ians in this country.
While the list proclaimed yester-
day covered only Latin America,
Mr.. Acheson said it would be ex-
tended to include similar pro-Axis
firms throughout the world. Japan.
China. Spain, Portugal, Sweden and
all other nations in which there
might be persons or corporations
acting for Germany or Italy would
be affected.
Would Prevent Leaks"
Mr.. Acheson explained the term
blocked national" was not confined
to citizens OF Germany or Italy, but
included those deemed to be acting
directly or indirectly for the benefit
OF Germany or Italy, or those to
whom the expectation of American
goods was for any other reason
deemed detrimental to the interest
Of national defense.
One of the major purposes of the
blacklist was to prevent leaks" of
American goods to the Axis through
transshipment from importers In
neutral countries.
The list of Latin American firms
published yesterday, Mr.. Acheson
said, grew out of efforts of the Com
merce Department and Nelson
Rockerfeller's Office of co-orainator
of commercial and cultural rela-
tions between the American repub-
lies to induce United States firms
not to have Axis sympathizers as
their agents in Latin America. He
said he did not believe the develop
ment would decrease over all trade
with Latin America.

WASHINGTON has m o r

gallantry should cause us to

it is not a bad sign. 1t indicates
that the Washington ladies are

Bow-ieFs, We believe como of
walking too early. We assume
that the Washington ladies step
out on their own in their tender
years with an inflexibility of
purpose that will not be denied,
and thus contract the bows.
Their determination is perhaps
ahead of their physical develop
ment.
But you must not think that
we consider bow-legs a detrac-
tion from feminine pulchritude,
BY no means, and not at all.
Many of the bow-legged ladies
we observed in Washington were
beautiful. So beautiful, we say.
that you would not afterwards
remember that they were how

20 COMPLICATED is the formula under which school
- money distributed by the state, few Detroters
realize that last year they sent close to TEN MILLION
dollars to the schools outside this city,
For every three dollars spent own schools,
we raised another for the rural areas.
This money out of the pockets of the taxpayers
of city that is hardpressed financially it must look
for new revenue TO keep above water.
Yet the Legislature took approximately S2OOO0OOO
from us year schools returning S97S4000 and
scattering the generously from Monroe to Houghton
JAGGED in the House and Senate by unfair represen
VI tation we have been forced year after year. to
contribute greater and greater to the support of
rural Michigan.
This year the long fingered politicians back for
more-and this year Detroit can't afford to go
Most brazen of the long succession of Skin Detroit"
bills the schoolad sponsored by the Michigan
Education Association.
Their bill proposes that the state appropriation for
schools next year increased S46000000 instead of
S41000000.
They propose that the allowance be increased for all
rural schools AND CUT FOR DETROIT.
INSTEAD of taking S2O0OOOOO out of Detroit and
turning So 1874 ,000,they- take approximately
s22,500OO0 from the metropolis and return not more
than $8OO00OO
In other words Detroit is being asked to contribute
approximately S14500O00 year to the outsate schools
at time when it is having difficulty keeping its
school doors open
So complicated is the measure, corps of actuares
would not be able TO figure the exact loss that would
result to this CITY, Some authorities estimate it will not
cut Detroit as much as S3,0OO0O0 under last years
allowance
Yet records of the State Department of Public In
structon reveal that about 100 outsate school districts
have enough money left from state aid last year to
finance the present school year.
OF THE 64OO school districts, about 5000 received
" from the state enough money pay from so to 100
per cent of their school costs
The law requires these districts to levy school tax
of three mills locally Sy they have kept their assessed
valuation to a minimum. That is matter of record
They levy three mills against low valuation, while
Detroers next year will pay mills extremely
high valuation.
So the time has for the taxpayers of this city
break from the yoke of rural dominance and call halt
Begrudging pennies for children we no
longer afford dollars for neighbors in the North
This year must end our lethargic acceptance of
oustate greed grab what is left of tax money and
make clear to the hungry school politicians that they
have reached their high-water mark at last.
