COMPANY
NOT ATTRACTIVE

Local cotton people are lmahifestiRg
no interest whatever in the suggestions
OF w. p. G. Harding, governor of the
federal reserve board, for the forma-
ton of a giant cotton exporting corpora
tion other than to criticize It as
visionary and impracticable and likely
to. put practically every dealer In the
Southtout Of business SO far as business
with the foreign spinner Is concerned.
Expressions indicate that when the
board Of directors of the exchange, to
which IT has been referred, there will
be little, il any. support for It.
/. ii. Barnwell, president of the ex-
change, says that no date has been set
for . meeting of the board to act on
perhaps be held within q few days. He
admits that SO far nobody has shown
any, disposition to enthuse over the
matter, but that some sort Of action
probably will be taken.
Inquiry among the local cotton men
ehcttS the opinion that the government
Official perhaps has none but the best
OF intentions In his effort to help the
South. but that the situation they are
now facing cannot be met by any
scheme which Is so revolutionary in
character. The thing they. want to see
being plenty OF ability to finance sales
by the various firms who have been In
business for many years. To upset
marketing machinery by trying some
thing that is entirely new, they con-
tend, is likely to bring more trouble
than Is alreay being faced.
1t is further pointed out that efforts
have been made previously to organize
a big selling concern, but nothing came
Of II. and they hardly believe that IL
can be done now, especially when there
Is increasing demand that business get
back as nearly as possible to normal
lines and as far as possible from gov
eminent direction.
