There are always some boys working their way through school. I don’t see why the Governor should point it out at this time, but the Legislature will pass things over his veto anyway if he continues to ob- struct.” Maj. John L.

RESTAURANTS FIGHT HIGH FOOD COSTS National Association Asks 200,-i 000 Members to Refrain From Use of Pork. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, October 12—The Na- tional Restaurant Association sum- moned yesterday the country's 200,000 public eating places to battle high eosts of foods, especially pork. They were requested in a resolution adopted at the final session of its con- vention to “refrain where practical from the use of pork and pork prod- ucts and such other foods as have been exorbitantly raised in price by srtificial control “under the adminis- tration’s A. A. A. program. “It's a boycott to this extent,” the essociation headquarters explained. “The restaurant men of America will push food products on which no processing taxes are levied, if we can find them. We will serve pork chops and pork sandwiches and other process-taxed foods but we won't feature them on our menus. “We have been getting too many complaints from customers,” the statement added, “and we want to make it clear that neither we, nor the packers, the other processors nor istributors are responsible for the steep prices we are compelled to charge. It's the Government pro- gram.” “It means we are joining in the housewives’ fight with all the force we can command,” added Frank O. Sherrill, of Charlotte, N.

By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va, October 12— Charged with operating his automobile for a distance of 20 yards without a State operator's permit, Dr. J. J. Garvey, 52, former sanitary officer of Alexandria, was given a suspended fine of $25 and costs by Judge James Reece Duncan in Police Court today. The fine was suspended on recom- mendation of Commonwealth’s Attor- ney Albert V. Bryan, who said the evidence showed that Dr. Garvey had operated his machine only 20 yards and that the former city officer was moving to Alabama next week. The court suspended the fine on the provision that Dr. Garvey leaves the State. He was arrested yesterday in the 300 block South Washington street. Police said they had seen him drive the machine for only 20 yards before he stopped to let out a companion, Colored Voodoo Doctor Slain by Cemetery Posse MississippiansOrganized Watch When Graves Were Disturbed.

Apparently it was only misplaced. The rediscovery is claimed by top Uited States diplomats here, who are still chuckling because they* were able to wriggle out of the troublesome traditional American policy of freedom of the seas, and establish, within 48 hours, a wholly new foreign meutrality policy, without arousing any strong ad= verse criticism. The inside mechanics of how it was done indicates that at least a good | part of it was plain Roosevelt luck. | Here is how: | The President’s San Diego speech was prepared several days in advance. | | Buried near the end was the ap- | parently unimportant sentence: “The United States shall and must remain, | | as long ago the Father of our Country | prayed it might remain, unentangled | and {ree.” \ | | & ‘These words have not been news | since George Washington first uttered them, but, at the very moment lhe‘ President was repeating them, war broke in Ethiopia. George's words became the United States’ answer to war. This dramatized them and helped to cause a reaction through the country which was not entitely | expected. Back to the State Department came word that applause swept through movie houses in cities throughout the country when the President’s “unentangled and free” words were uttered. Press reaction | also has been almost entirely fa- vorable to any feasigle method of keeping us out of war. | Every one here could see the time | was ripe for something more than the | mere arms embarge which had been planned.

Whatever differences of opinion Americans may have at home as to the merits of the New Deal, there is every reason for a united support, irrespective of politics, of the basic principles proclaimed by President Roosevelt in reference to the Italian- Ethiopian War. For Congress, by the terms of the neutrality resolution adopted in the closing days of the session, plnced! President Roosevelt in the position | of concurring not only with the prin- | ciples advocated by President Hoover | NG _STAR, WASHINGTO 6.0.P.HITS DEFICIT FIGURE AS FRAUD Roosevelt Budget Views Called “Deceptive”—Huge Increase Predicted. Declaring the President's recent budget summation was “deceptive and misleading,” the Republican National Committee predicted today the deficit for the current year will be $1,916,~ 000,000 more instead of $300,000,000 less than last year. President Roosevelt said he antic- ipated the $300,000,000 reduction in his budget summation of Septem- | ber 30. 5 The President was charged with “grossly overestimating what the ad- ministration proposes to spend and grossly underestimating what it ex- | but those enunciated by President | pects the Federal income to be,” Wilson. | thereby building up a fictitious deficit, | Mr. Wilson’s famous 14 points: | To understand American policy to- day it is necessary to recall one of | “Absolute freedom of navigation | upon the high seas, outside territorial | waters, alike in peace and in war, except as the seas may be closed in | whole or in part by international action for the enforcement of in- ternational covenants.” Sanctions Are Substitutes. Mr. Wilson did not succeed in get- ting this clause adopted by the peace | conference, for the British objected | and preferred to have the League of | Nations develop the point through economic sanctions as against an ag- | gressor nation. Today, by the action | of more than 50 nations, embargoes | on arms are to be imposed against the aggressor nation, and thus, in | effect, the seas are to be closed in | part “for the enforcement of inter- | national covenants,” such as the Kel- logg-Briand treaty and the League Covenant itself. | President Hoover, on January 10, | 1933, in a message to Congress, asked | that he be given the power to forbid | the export of arms and munitions to any country where conditions exist in which the shipment of arms would | promote the use of force or conflict between nations, but the embargo was | to be imposed after securing the co- | operation of such countries as the | President deemed necessary. But this | By the Associated Press. resolution failed to pass. The next step was a statement on | behalf of President Roosevelt made by Ambassador-at-Large Norman H. | Davis at Geneva, on May 22, 1933. He said: “In the event that a decision is taken by a conference of the pru'ers‘ in consultation in determinin; the aggressor with which, on the Jasis of its independent judgment, the Gov- ernment of the United States agreed, in a current issue of the committee’s publication. “Facts and Opinions.” At the end of the year, according to | the committee, the President is then | able to show he has not spent the | money he said he would, the deficit, | it was stated, is thus less than he pre- dicted, and he “credits the difference between his fictitious deficit and the | actual deficit as a real saving.’ | ‘The committee said its own estimate of the current year's deficit may be too- high, but is based on real figures‘ issued by the Treasury Department and not on a political statement de- signed to drug the business interests and taxpayers. The President, the committee added, | must break his pledge to the people | and spend little or nothing of the $5,000,000,000 relief fund if ‘he in- tends to live up to his statement that | less would be expended for recovery | and relief this year.

The evolution of motion pictures, | from the first flat white-and-black productions to the modern technicolor | films, was described to the Electro- | chemical Society last night by Dr. C. E. K.

Every one heard as soon as he did that the League Council had been called to meet, but no one else got the private tip he received that the council planned sancions against Italy which were voted a week later. It was this news which put him on the radio to the Houston. For six hours the text of suggested presi- dential statements went back and forth, for corrections and additions. | Newsmen waiting around could not | understand why it required so long to prepare an arms embargo state- ment. They found out at 11:30 p.m. that Saturday night, when the presi- dential announcement of a new law of the seas was made. Embargo Discretion. State Department diplomats are keeping it to themselves, but they also contend they have slipped one over on | Congress in the new neutrality act. | Congress insisted that any presiden- | | tial arms embargo must be proclaimed | against all belligerents. Congress did | not want this country taking sides. Messrs. Roosevelt and Hull fought for discretionary powers, but failed. However, they succeeded in get- ting onme little word, “may,” in the act. It said that the President, having once proclaimed an em- bargo against warring nations, may extend the embargo to other na- tions which become involved. Departmental lawyers are prepared to interpret that as meaning the President could refrain from imposing an embargo on Britain or France, in case they are drawn into the struggle. ‘Weakness in Plan. An apparent weakness of Mr. Roose- velt's arms embargo is that it is con- fined to actual implements of war. It does not include raw materials such as cotton, copper and wheat. For | | | | the President to embargo such ma- terials might easily get him into serious trouble with the farmers. He sidestepped the issue by telling them they may sell to Italy, but “at their own risk.” All insiders realize what this will mean if the League sanctions against Italy include a blockade of Italian ports. The risk will suddenly become too great. The embargo will assume an entirely different potency. There are those here who never overlook the practical side. For in- stance, a State Department official has already figured it out that the | official by the League itself.

The penalty was assessed on the kidnap count. Sentence was passed on the robbery charge, to which Goff highway near Paragould last Febru- ary 3, b against the aggressor.” | Policy Now In Force. ‘The foregoing policy is now being applied through the President's proclamations and orders. America | is not in any way going to insist on | exporting arms to the belligerents in defiance of League action. i It so happens, of course, that the | League members have voted to per-| mit exports of arms to Ethiopia, but not to Italy. America’s unwillingness to export arms to Ethiopia is a nega- tive act and will, as a practical mat- ter, be hardly likely to defeat the “collective effort” which the states in | consultation have decided upon | against the aggressor. So long as | America does not insist on her tradi- tional right to ship to all beligerents, there can be no criticism visited upon her by the League, and today Amer- ican policy is in absolute conformity | with the League on that point. But the difficulty arises when the League members begin to enlarge the list of “implements of war” and add raw materials. Then will the United States accept the League's list? Thus far, matters have been so arranged | between Geneva and Washington that | President Roosevelt's list of “imple- | ments of war” has been accepted as nomic sanctions mean more than mere prohibition of arms and ammu- nition. They must mean raw mate- rials, too. Henry L. Stimson, who was Secretary of State under President Hoover, is already out with a state- ment urging that Mr. Roosevelt's power to broaden the list be enlarged | and that public opinion should urge such a broadening. Power Already Conferred. Mr. Roosevelt probably has the power already because Congress did not define “implements of war,” and certainly raw materials used in mak- ing explosives can be defined as im- plements of war without much injury to the official imagination. This will produce resentment among exporters, no doubt, but this is one of the con- sequences of the policy, whether it had been assumed by Mr. Wilson or Mr. Hoover. There may be complications if the European powers embargo certain sup- plies to Italy and America does not concur. This is considered, for the moment, not to be an-eventuality, for, unless the United States and the principal powers did come to an agreement on the enlargement of the tabooed list of articles, there would probably be no such list proclaimed by the European governments either. They would see the futility of pro- claiming an embargo which America was free to violate. The American policy of concerted is not relished by naval circles here and by some students of foreign policy who believe that the precedent created is likly to rise to plague the United States in the fu- ture, and that surrender of the right the nation which has the lesser sup- ply of arms and ammunition, both in raw materials and arms-making fac- tories. But the disposition of Con- gress in the last session in reference to a policy of virtual non-intercourse was much more overwhelmingly against allowing trade in war supplies than was the President himself, who was advised that it would be better to have rather than mandatory powers. Congress, there- fore, is mainly responsible for the assertion of a policy that, in effect, concurs in what the League of Na- tions is doing by callective action to prevent an enlargement of the scope of the war or its prolongation.

The young husband, who was pros- | trated when informed of the tragedy today, said his wife left his home in Fairfax County about 9 am. yester- day to drive to Washington with her | mother because the latter wished to buy an automobile here.

The young husband said he knew Reaguer only slightly, but that he| supposed his wife had known him “most all her life,” since they both were from Culpeper. He did not know, however, that his wife was with Reaguer last night. The O'Bennen girl had gone to the Wood home for a few davs to rest fol- lowing an illness, her aunt said. She was expected to return here last night to resume her studies at a business school. Police said that when they went after Reaguer’s car, which he had parked on a lot near the hotel, they found a dog locked in the tonneau and turned the pet over to the Dis- trict Pound. In Culpeper, it was said that Reaguer left there last night about 7:30 o'clock, saying he was going to the Culpeper fair grounds, about a mile from that city. On this route he would have passed the Fletcher home. Reaguer came to Culpeper about 20 years ago from Rappahannock County.
