Besides drawing the United States farther from the dangers of through new neutrality legislation, President Roosevelt stressed the ad- vantages of better business at home with neutrality law barriers of the present lifted. Benefit Derived Industry and employment at home would be greatly benefitted if the law was changed, he said, to permit complete manufacture of export materials in the United States, rath- er than, as at present, shipping through the loopholes of the present law, unfinished materials that are further processed abroad.

The President reminded the spec- ial sion of Congress that he prev- iously had warned that the existing | neutrality law might operate un- | fairly. He recalled that in his mes- | sage t January he pointed out | that the arms embargo might ac- tually aid an aggressor and deny aid to the victims of aggression. Mr. Roosevelt told the Legislators that the neutrality law passed four years ago gave an advantage to na- tions with large and powerful armies over those whose chief power lay in their strength at sea. He said that the act as passed by Congrt prevented several powers from car- deprived them of their right to buy ! where they chose. | Quotes January Note | The President quoted from his message of last January in which he said: “We know what might hap- pen to the United States if the| philosophies of force were to com- | pletely enmesh the other countries and invade our own. Fortunate it| is therefore that in this Western Hemisphere we have a common,| democratic government, a rich ity of resources and of peoples ng together in mutual respect and peace.” President Roosevelt said he as- sumed all members of Congress and | | all government officials were striv- ing earnestly for peace. He said: | “Therefore no group should label itself as a peace bloc or assume | exclusive protectorate over the fu- |ture well being of the United! ;‘ States.” Just Act on Neutrality | The President added that he saw |no need for any legislation otheri i than that relating to neutrality.| | special session adjourned he expect»“ ‘ed to ask the leaders of both parties | to remain in the capital. In appeal- | ing for revision of the neutrality |law the President asserted that he { would rather that the law had been | passed by Congress and that he had signed it. He declared furthermore that he was asking that Congress give earnest consideration to its re- vision. Up to Congress The President left to Congress the choice of methods by which safe- guards should be set up “so long as the method chosen meets the needs of new changing day to day situa- tions and dangers.” >eo—- WOMEN OF THE MOOSE HONOR " PAST REGENTS Past Regents of the Women of the Moose occupied the chairs at| last night's meeting of the organi-| zation at the I.O.O.F.
