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

Congressman Adarnson Of Georgia.
in an interview. condemned the atti-
tude Of the Georgia Bankers Associa-
ton in announcing that its members
viii refuse TO handle through bills Of
lading 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
. 81 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, | am
sure they heartily approve the action
Of the steamship companies. Why?
Because it gives the banks the privi-
lege Of accepting the drafts condition
ally, which means that they viii 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
DAlIh Oh idAAIEs HIS hAEp dDllAt6 ~
the receivers Of cotton abroad
Heretofore claims for DANA ged
cotton have been made by the receC-
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 Fl 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 IL is so expressed in
the bill of lading
III the exporter fails to pay this
claim. then the accepting bank will
have 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
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 COZ
ton, Notwithstanding what Congress
man Adamson has to say on the sub
ject Furthermore the New York
banks VIII posiuveIy decline to in
dorse or handle such drafts"
