Washington, Oct. 30. Warning exporters that the Government la keeping

check on all shipments to Italy and Ethiopia was given by Pre-j aldént Roosevelt in a statement' Issued from the White House.
The Presidont said the Govern- ment was determined not to be- como involved in the controversy, but was anxious for the restora- tion and maintenance of peace.
"However, in the course of the war, tempting trade opportunities may be offered for the supply of materials which would. prolong the war. I do not believe that tho American people will wish the abnormally increased profits which might be temporarily secured by extending our trade in Auch materiala, nor would they wish the struggles on the battle- field to be prolonged because of profits accruing to a comparative- ly small number of citizens."
Observera attach importanco to the fact that the statement was made on the eve of the League the data of meeting to decido economic sanctions against Italy, and belleve that the President is anticipating Lengue action, as he did with the declaration under the Neutrality Act.

There was no reason to suppose, he said, that the process of recovery was finished. On the contrary provided there was no great disturbance of the public mind, he expected during the next four years that "we might safely anticipate steady progress in the same direction."
What would happen, he asked, if a fortnight hence a Government came to office pledged to the abolition of the House of Lords, a Government which would administer the affairs of the country by order, instead of through Parliament, which would nationalise bank- ing and four of Britain's principal industries? The mere announcement of guel a thing being possible would mean that confidence would go in a day and London would be instantly drained of foreign money.—Reuter,
