Cotton Industry Plans to Or
ganize Export Corporation.
Open Important Convention at
New Orleans Tomorrow.
PAY STOCK IN LIBERTY BONDS
New Organization win Finance
Entire Export Transaction.
VIII Begin Business When Cap
itaI Reaches S2O,O0O,0O

New Orleans. La. May 13.-One of
the most important conventions in the
history of the cotton industry will
open here tomorrow for the purpose
OF organizing a $1OO.O0O,OO0 export
corporation to market the south's
staple crop.
The proposed plan of organizing
pool of cotton producers and sdealers
for export trade, as made known here
today at conference of cotton in
terests, provides f or a corporation
capitalized at, 500. 00O.0 600, to be paid
largely in liberty bonds.
The corporation would be empow-
cred to accept wide variety of for
eign securities and to market them
in this country or to issue bonds of
it's own. 1t also could acquire con-
troll of cotton manufacturing plants.
The orga nization plan also provides
that the corporation might lend
money to dealers or shippers on Sc
where cotton is being assembled for
export Thus it would finance the
entire export transaction.
Adoption Is Expected.
The draft of the proposed powers
for the corporation will be submitted
later this week to the entire confer
ence and adoption of the plan without
The corporation would be authorized
TO begin business when the amount of
capital stock subscribed reached $780,
100000 with so per cent paid in and
payments might be made either in
cash, liberty bonds or notes, or treas
urv certificates of Indebtedness.
BY this means approximately $10,-
100000 worth OF government securi-
ties would he the basis for financial
operations at the start. In addition to
finding a market abroad for cotton
and cotton products and making the
necessary contracts. the corporation
would be empowered to deal in notes,
drafts, checks, bills of exchange, ac-
ceptances. cable transfers or other evil
dences of Indebtedness. 1t could take
bonds Cf foreign governments or OF
foreign banks, syndicates or other pri-
waite business firms and make loans to
thoqe foreign interests on the security
of their bI'gation. By this means the
corporation virtually would sell its
cotton to foreign purchase on credit
raising money in this country on Sc
curity of the foreign bonds to finance
the operations.

aid of the Russians.
Only the Anglo-Saxon countries can
withstand the Bolshevik movement in

Makowski believes the allied and
central powers will soon make known
their willingness to make peace. They
have high hopes of the effects of the
report of William Bullitt, whom Pres

Lenines peace proposal to the al
