|U. 5. BLACKLISIS
 |2 SHIPS OW NE D 'BY ARGENTI TINA
BY CHARLES N. POLEAK

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Buerios Aires, oct. 6-( JP1--1'wd merchant ships owned by the Ar genuine government are on the Urlit- ed States blacklist, "arad they are going to remain there, z according tt U. s. diplomatic sources.
 The ships will stay on the list, it was explained, until the United States government is satisfied that the funds for their purchase have not found their way into German hands. ~
 The situation arose from the gov- ernment's purchase of the two ves- sels from A. M. Delfino & Co., shipping firm that fad been on the blacklist for many months because of its alleged German financial con- trol. It was the Delfino company that supplied the barges which rec moved more than 1000 officers and men from the scuttled German pocket battleship Graf Spec off ] Montevideo in December, 1889. sa
 Early this year the Delfino firm sold to the state merchant marine bklE H1-ySdT T~OlU, 4,o1t-tOAA PuooS4ASS4 and cargo vessel sDMadryn," and tha 37-year-old, 4,4S2-ton freight and passenger ship "Colnmodor Rivada- via" Provisions of the exeutive de- cree authorizing their purchase al located free funds in contract with the policy followed by Argentina ir 1941 when funds paid to the Italian government for IS freighters were frozen for the duration of the war.
 It was believed that the cash paid to Delfino might be used to finance Nad propaganda and fifth column activities here, and the ships were specifically blacklisted. Eight Del- fino company tugs, weighing l,600 tons, purchased by the government for use of the navy and the ner- chant marine, also were named on the United States and British black lists.
 Principal effect of the blacklistina is to restrict use of the ships to cer- tain routes-suc as down. the Att lantic coast of Patagonia and through the Straits of Magellan to neutral Chile. But the sort of car.. go they carry also is limited, aS firms shipping in blacklisted vessels also are liable to be blacklisted.

Good Evening.
AUTUMN ON THE BEACH

The sea is an incredible blue, Matching the sky; Each wave bears foaming crest As it rolls by. Stretching inland the dunes rise, Inscrutable, strange; The air is heady with hint of frost, The leaves change, Touched with flames of orange and red, And running fire Of vivid gold that is mounting up Higher and higher. Great black muscadines, heavy and sweet Hang from the vines; Their warm, ripe fragrance tempts the pee With honeyed designs. Bare and beautiful the beach Is lonely curve, Lovely in its solitude And white reserve.

 Christian Science Monitor.

If we are really so hard up for scrap - then why the blazes do they let stuff pile up for days before hauling it away?"
 That's the question which will be heard more and more often as vic- tory stockpiles of scrap metal, rub Der, and rags are built in every community in the United States. As local scrap drives gather momen- tum. towering stacks of miscellan- eous scrap will appear at vacant lots, in city squares, and at rural crossroads These victory stockpiles are Americas answer to the scrap shortage, their size will measure each community's response.
 Victory Stockpiles
 Victory stockpiles must become a permanent fixture in Americas war time economy. They will have to be replenished constantly until the war is won. The need for scrap will be urgent just as long as the need for guns and ships and planes is urgent. AS long as the stockpiles are high, the mills will be grind ing out the weapons of victory at a capacity rate, when they level of into molehills and plateau, a de- cline in steel production is not far away.
 These mountains of scrap metal and rubber are Americas scrap in- ventory. In this form they can be tallied and sorted and prepared for their journey to the armament plants. Victory stockpiles are Amer ica'S open-air warehouses for sal- wage, where the scrap reserves are stored while awaiting their call to the mills. AS long as the govern ment and industry know the extent of those reserves, and know where they are, there is no danger of a decline in production brought about by a shortage of scrap At a mo- inent's notice. as soon as shortage in a particular area becomes evil dent. America can dip into her stockpiies and rush sufficient quan- titles of high-grade scrap to the scene to avert any showdown in the production rate. If. on the other hand. the same scrap were hidden in 30 million attics and farmyards and factories. there would be no way to move 1t to the mills fast enough to keep the blast furnaces roaring
 Fom Hldig Places
 The current fall campaign for metal scrap will bring out of hid- Ing many hundreds of thousands Of tons. Every pound of this accumu. lated scrap must be carefully sorted and graded. must be broken up into specified lengths and sizes, must be baiied and compressed before 1t can be sent to the mills. This work rec quires the skill of expert handlers. There are not enough such experts in the country to do this Job over- night. It would be physically Inc possible for Anerlea's scrap dealers to prepare the entire fail harvest for shipping as fast as t is collected. But # the scrap Is available in stcckplles in every community in
