Welles Warns Axis
Funds Under Guard
Washington. — Undersecretary
of State Sumner Welles warned
Friday that the United State.s
will take “necessiTV and appro
priate steps’’ to prevent Oerman
and Italian nationals from evad
ing, through Latin America a-
gents, freezing orders directed
agian.-;t their assets here.
Addressing a meeting of the
Inter-American economic commit
tee, composed of diplo.mats rep
resenting the 21 American repub
lics, he said this government is
“aware of the possibility’’ that
Italy and Germany might at
tempt to evade freezing regula
tions “by proceeding through per
sons in the other American re
publics and other countries not
Included in the order.”
The United Slates, he said,
would therefore, give “careful
scrutiny’' to all reports required
under the freezing regulations,
and take action to prevent viola
tions.
His unusually blunt statement
was interpreted in diplomatic cir
cles as notifying the Latin-Amer-
Ican nations thrt the United
States wa= determined to prevent
leaks of axis capital from this
country to anv other nation in
the Western Hemisphere.

AAA Wheat Forms
Not Complicated
“There is absolutely nothing
complicated about the wheat
form.'- that must be kept by com
biners and threshers of ’ wheat
who accept toll for harvesting
this year’s crop under the 1041
marketing quota program.” sayr
E. Y. Floyd, state AAA executive
officer gt State College. A fuU
explanation of the simple forme
will be made to all threshers and
combiners at the county agent’s
office in every county, the AAA
officer said.
Floyd cited the simplicity of
the forms in the face of report
some wheat harvesters had elect
ed to cut wheat for cash only, ra
ther than accept toll, since the
latter procedure involves the use
of AAA forms.
U. S. Places Control •
On Shipments Of Oil
Washington, June 20. — The
United States today placed con
trols on exports of all petroleum
products in a move which, it was
made clear, was designed primar
ily to p: event depletion of al
ready inadequate reserves in
eastern seaboard statps.
In an order to the office of ex
port control. President Roosevelt
said that no shipments should be
permitted from Atlantic ports ex
cept to Greet Britain, Egypt and
the western hemisphere nations.
At the same time, the White
House announced that a plan was
being prepared for the most ef
fective use of available tankers
In supplying petroleum to the
eastern seaboard and the other
American republics. -
The prospective oil shortage on
the Atlantic coast is due to diver-
.sion to British use of part of the
tanker fleet which norinally car
ries oil from southwestern fields
to eastern seaboard points.
