BANKS STANDON
BILL Of LADING
UPHELD
Coles Defends Georgia Associa-
ton in Refusal to Handle Paper
When Cotton Is Damaged.

Congressman Adamson, of Georgia,
in an interview. condemned the atti-
tude of the Georgia Bankers Associa-
ton in announcing that its members
will refuse to handle through bills of
ladtng on cotton if the bills are in
numbered. with notations of damage
TO the cotton.
Among other things. he quoted
English bankers and receivers of cot
ton as saying that they do not object
10 such qualifying clauses in the bills
of lading.
A. P. Coles. vice president Of the
Central Bank and Trust Corporation,
takes the Congressman to task.
Il am quite aware of the fact that
English banks and receivers of cotton
do not object to the qualified bills OF
lading," he said. The fact is. l am
sure they heartily approve the action
OF the steamship companies. Why?
Because II gives the banks the priv
lege of accepting the drafts condition
ally, which means that they will have
the right of action against all in
dorsers of the draft for any claims
that arise against the cotton by rea-
son of the conditional clauses in the
bills Of lading. This also applies 20
the receivers of cotton abroad.
Heretofore claims for damaged
cotton have been made by the receiv-
ers abroad against the steamship
companies, for the reason that the
through bills of lading have always
been without any restriction clauses
in them. Now a bill of lading is
sued with the clause. Cotton Wet or
Ten bales wet will mean that the
receiver may have claim on the ex-
porter, because it is so expressed in
the bill of lading.
IF the exporter fails to pay this
claim, then the accepting bank will
have a claim against all the banks in
dorsing the bills of exchange. This
question has been settled by the
United States courts and there is no
doubt about it.
ANY Georgia bank that will indorse
a draft drawn against cotton with
bill Of lading attached with restricted
clause in the bill of lading will be
liable for the claim against the cot
ton, Notwithstanding what Congress
man Adamson has to say on the sub
ject. Furthermore, the New York
banks will pOsitive'" decline to in
dorse or handle such drafts"

Over strenuous protests from Coun-

veto it.
The action Of Council comes after a
long fight between Tax Assessors c.

Malone, on the one side. and Tax Re
ceiver George Beauchamp, on the
other. The outcome of the lack Of
cooperation will be the placing Of
