GOODS FOR ITALY
AMERICAN TRADERS PETROLEUM AND COTTON ACTIVITY AT SOME FORTS A WARNING IGNORED By Telesrrnph—Press Association —Copyright (Received November 6, 10.5 p.m.) WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 Reports received by the Commerce Department indicate that President Roosevelt's warning against trade with the belligerents in the war between Italy and Ethiopia is being completely ignored by exporters of essential materials. Most of the trade is from Gulf of Mexico ports, New Orleans and other points, where there is the greatest activity for several years. Petroleum and cotton are the principal exports. Shipments of petroleum to Italy in August and September increased 600 per cent, compared with the corresponding months in 1934. Officials of the department state that nothing will be done in the matter except to compile reports and forward them to the State Department for consideration.
