Chapter 651 (1/2)
In July, a big event happened during the holiday. The two houses of Congress formally passed the ”neutrality bill”, which also means that the United States will not join the European war.
From 34 years to today, the debate on the neutral bill, which has lasted for 18 months, has come to a conclusion.
On the day of signing the document, Roosevelt said: This is the desire of the American government and people to avoid engaging in war that may involve the United States in war,
but it may force us to engage in war, rather than stay out of it.
The first act of neutrality provides that arms, ammunition and means of warfare are illegal to be transported to a belligerent port by the United States or any other territory of the United States,
or to any neutral port for transit to or for use by a belligerent.
The term of validity of this bill is tentatively set for 36 years and February, that is to say, it will be implemented for half a year to see the situation.
However, with the appearance of the ”neutrality act” of the United States, the signs of Italian invasion of Ethiopia became more obvious.
The League of nations is actively operating to prevent the world from falling into war again. However, the League of nations, which has no real power and can only talk about it, has no ability to stop it!
”France has reached an Italian French treaty with Mussolini, and the British side has begun to compromise. They think that sacrificing Abyssinia can satisfy Mussolini's appetite,
let him give up the idea of alliance with Germany, and finally choose to stand on the side of Britain and France.”
Mussolini, the famous dictator, was the founder of FXS doctrine and political party, and the first person to implement chauvinism externally.
In other words, he can be regarded as a teacher of the dwarfs, and the practice of dwarfs in Germany was a complete copy of his experience at first.
The arms trade was banned, and this was the time when Lincoln barrows played his part.
A large number of semi-automatic weapons were shipped to Oman, where the numbers on the guns were worn off, and then they flowed into Abyssinia.
Abyssinia is exactly what Ethiopia has now called it
A steady stream of arms was piling up in containers in New Orleans, waiting for ships to take them to Oman.
CGT's two 80000 DWT oil tankers, industry and green, have been launched for their first voyage to Qatar two months ago.
When they come back, six million weapons will leave the dock.

”Doha port in Qatar operates well. At present, our port free trade zone is the largest free trade zone in the Persian Gulf. All 11 berths have been put into use,
the average water depth is 9.4m, and the anchor depth of large ships is 15m, which is the first choice of all commercial vessels. We are planning new projects,
including digging inward to expand the port, building a comprehensive container terminal, general cargo and military Terminal, the new terminal will adopt new mechanism. ”
Listening to the operation of the wharf, Li Zitao was generally satisfied and said casually, ”how is the development of Pearl mining industry?”
”Very good. The small port next to Doha port is a pearl mining port under unified management. Those who agree to sign an underwriting agreement with us can collect pearls here.”
At present, pearl picking and Doha port in Qatar are the most profitable industries of Lee C. Astor industry. It can be said that Ethan has put all his attention on it.
