Washington, Oct. 8. ? Legislative
leaders reported today they had
agreed that neutrality legislation to
be introduced in the House tomorrow,
following a message from President
Roosevelt, would be confined to per
mitting American merchantshipe to
carry aims.
Those who attended a White House
conference said it was agreed that
such legislation could be sent through
the House before the end of next
week.
It was said reliably, however, that
the President, Secretary ct State
Hull and Harry L. Hopkins, the
#i % " 1.1. ? X. ^AHIVWUUI 11JU-? -1

also amend the esristing law to lift
erent ports or designate conihat
areas.
Hopkins, who had been reported
taking the lead in an effort to have
the law revised to permit the arming
of ships and to aOow them to travel
anywhere, was said to have express
ed disappointment at the decision
readied at today's conference. {
One of those who attended the
meeting told reporters that if the
lagsilation providing for arming
ships went through the House by a
substantial majority it was possible
that the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee would consider broaden
ing1 the measure to eliminate the
restrictions on ship movements.
| Enlistment in the U. S. Naval Re
serve is for four years, but if a man
enlists today and the emergency ends .
within a period of several months,
he will be returned to his civilian job
as soon as possible after the emer
gency is over, and will not bq requir
ed to complete his four year term in
active service.

"An act of Congress levying a tax
on admissions to agricultural fairs
makes it necessary to make the

tickets," Pair Manager J. S. Dorton
explained, "The collection of the tax
is not only a civic duty to National
Defense, but is a mandate under the
law.

Carolina's really great educational
institutions." Nearly 100,000 square
