SUGGESTS EXPORT PLAN.
Gov. W. P. G. Harding Recon-
mends Formation of Corporation.

Gov. w. p. c. Harding of the Fed
eral Reserve Board. in letter to
southern newspaper. has advocated
organization of a cooperative export
corporation with a capitalization of
perhaps 5o.000.0o0. He suggested that
such a corporation. organized under
the Webb act solely for foreign trade
some extent by the war finance COR
poration under the recent act passed
by Congress authorizing an appropria-
ion of $1,000, 100000 to exporters
Under the plan suggested liberty
bonds, which would not be placed on
the mark et,could be used by southern
cotton producers and business men in
payment for stock of the corporation.
thus eliminating the necessity of ty-
ing up large quantities OF cash. This
method would remove any objections
government agencies might have to
the exchange of liberty bonds for
