Financing Foreign Trade

1
IL Congress in line with the recent dis
cussion of the international trade situation,
providing for the financing OF foreign pur-
chasers OF American export goods; providing
at the same time for channel for the release
of q flood of American manufactures. and
coincidentally providing for the upbuildnG
and profitable maintenance OF the American
merchant marine
AS to the importance and necessity for such
foreign financing there be no serious
question. Nor will the general method Of
providing it be difficult to work out. But
in getting down TO details tho country is
confronted with such problems as govern,
ment participation and the collateral ques
tions: If government participation is adj
visablc, will the government he willing to
participate and. If so, to what extent such
participation should be carried?
The general feeling throughout the coun-
try is against government participation in
private business except in the most extreme
cases. But financial undertaking of such
tremendous volume, involving perhaps two
billions of dollars, is projected here, and it
may be absolutely necessary to enlist the
material as we'll as the moral support OF
the government in order to assure the fun
confidence Of the commercial financial and
industrial interests as we'll as that OF tho
investing public.
The tentative program for dealing with the
powerful group of financial interests be
formed to conduct this foreign financing as
distinctly business enterprise. Several
smaller groups might be formed, all to be
represented in the major body. to make tho
Plan less cumbersome. On the shipment OF
American goods to Europe the foreign pur-
chasers would issue their obligations, guaran.
teed perhaps by the government, and against
these the American hnanciers would issue
debentures, to be absorbed in the United
States. Such dehentures, Of course, would
constitute party lien on the foreign obi
cations.
Another problem to he worked out in that
connection is that of making these securities
attractive TO American investors There may
be some initial difficulty in doing this in
world wide financial scheme OF such novelty
and magnitude that which has been pro.
! posed by Mr.. Nanderlip, Mr. Dawson and
other international bankers. There is no
| doubt that Congress will examine carefully
into this phase OF the matter before placing
! the stamp of its approval upon the egis-
lation soon TO be offered. under which the
government guarantee will he given
Although the foreign financing will go far
toward helping poverty-stricken Europe in
the processes of industrial reha blitation the
scheme now under consideration is not re-
garded as an altrustc movement by those
behind il. 1t is essentially ID business plan
for the primary benefit Of the people OF the
United States. for the benefit of the indus
trial concerns which produce goods of all
kinds and for the benefit of the working
people employed not only by such enterprises
but also by the transportation companies
by the banks. and by all those associated
in the business of exportation
