A CONFERENCE TO
FORMULATE plan
FOR RESUMPTION
OF WORLD TRADE
Problem of Disposing of
Enormous Crops a
Serious One

Washington, Aug. 7.-Confronted
with the problem Of disposing Of the
country's enormous grain and cotton
crops, the administrat ton today made
plans for a conference in Washington
next week of representatives of the
leading shipping interests and foreign
exchange bankers.
The bankers have been asked to
come to Washington to formulate
plans for a resumption of the inter
national exchange market and restora-
ton of the use of international bills
of exchange. The shipping men will
be asked to move American grain and
cotton to the European markets.
In announcing the conference call
Secretary McAdoo said:
1T Is OF vital importance that two
things be done as quickly as posi-
BILE. First, provide ships to move our
grain and cotton crops to European
markets; second, restore through the
bankers the market for foreign bills
of exchange.
Grains is a very pressing problem
at the moment, because the crops have
been largely harvested and the move
ment is already we'll under way The
cotton movement is not so advanced. II
is my purpose to invite a conference
on the subject of the cotton to be held
at an early date, Of which announce
ment will be made later"
The Senate failed again today tic
pass the amendment to the Panama
canal act, admitting to American reg
lister foreign built ships less than five
years old.
