Paying Argentina
Debt Here Helped
Britain Immensely
Gained Economic Prestige
in South America, Helped
Own Exchange Rate: Paid
Back Loan on Good Terms

BUENOS AYRES, May 3.-Although
the agreement on the part of the Brit
ish government to pay off the s50,O0O-
600 owed by Argentina TO United
States bankers, payable May Is, has
been hailed here as IAN act of friend
ship" official publicity has not yet
been given to the understanding in
banking circles that the agreement was
only a conditional part of an in
genious financial arrangement which
enables Great Britain to pay her own
hundred million dollar debt to Argen-
tina without sending TO this country
single cent.
Not only is this s5o,ooo,ooo to be
credited by Argentina against Great
Britain's obligation. but the remaining
S30,O00.000 after being renewed, is to
be gradually eXtinguished through an
arrangement whereby Great Britain,
FOR certain period, pays in London
the interest on the principal part of
Argentina's external debt, bankers have
learned.
Thus far the Argentine government,
which was unable to get a renewal of
the loan in the United States, has
made public only the fact that Great
Britain has agreed to take care of
the obligation in behalf of Argentina
and LA kpoca. the government organ,
has praised the transaction as an evil
dence of great Britain's friendship to

Bank Acceptances
More Largely Used
In Selling Cotton
Practice Growing Fast Now.
Says Secretary Bean,
Back From Tour: Texas
Out to Beat Middlemen

Robert II. Bean, executive secreta ~
Of the American Acceptance Council
who has just returned from tour of
the country. in statement issued ves-
terday reported striking increase IN
the use of bankers acceptances to
finance sales Of cotton.
The growing use of acceptances in
the marketing OF cotton" he said. "is
development of much Importance
lnasmuch as foreign shipments Of the
staple are in large volume. owing to
the European demand. the number of
ollls based upon cotton exports are
now decreasing rapidly. The banks en-
gagged in this movement insist that
these acceptances be of the type eligi-
bic for rediscount by the Federal Re
serve banks. 1t is easy to see that the
acceptance will be of immense advan-
tage in marketing the cotton crop and
that 1t will be soon generally used for
TINS purpose. At some important cen
ters of the cotton belt REPRESENTATIVES
of the different banks are comforting
at frequent intervals so as to familiar
lze themselves with acceptances and to
promote their use in this interesting
heid of foreign trade activity.
1T is possible that the Southern
oanks may organize an acceptance cor
poratlon of their own, SO that the mar
ket may be broadened and stronger
demand created for acceptances put out
oy banks in that section. This tenta-
tive suggestion has been made. but
whether 1t is favorably acted upon or
not, there are numerous signs of q
growing demand for acce ceptances in the
South.
in Texas movement has been
started to cut out the middlemen in
cattle sales by organizing packing com
panies owned and operated bv farmers
themse Ives. The old interests feel az
grleved at the alleged discrimination by
the Federal Reserve Board against their
paper The fact is, however, that much
o! TINS paper is not suitable for re-
discount But in cases where the ac-
ceptance is based upon actual sales of
OH by producers to their distributors
IN other cities it is possible that ac-
eeptances based upon such sales may
De made eligible for rediscount The
system Is being firmly established in
the larger cities, such as Los Angeles
and San Francisco, where the banks are
dong all in their power to promote the
use OF acceptanceS in commercial trans
actions.
1T IS apparent. however, that many
banks even in sections where much of
the business done is of the type that
might be financed with acceptances are
loath to push the system, because they
are not fully informed about it. it
would seem as if the Federal Reserve
Board could do much to broaden the
demand for acceptances if it would ad-
Vlse the member banks as to lust wha {
ollis would or would not be taken for
redlscount by Federal Reserve banks.
Many Of the banks are IN the dark
about the attitude of the board, and
rather than undertake a lengthy cor
respondence with the Washington
AUTHORITIES they frequently refuse to
purchase acceptances which they might
be glad to take if they knew what the
policy of the board really was. Mr..
Bean is convinced that if the distrib-

Argentina and of great promise for
the future relations OF the two coun-
tries
Bankers say there is no doubt but
that the payment by Great Brita in of
Argentina's debt has been CORES pond
lngly detrimental to that of the United
States, but call attention to the fact
that the transaction is not without
its advantage to Great Britain also.
Il regret it very much" said one
Argentine banker to the Associated
Press CORE pondent, but fear the
failure OF the American bankers to re-
rev our loan and the fact that Great
Britain has stepped into the breach and
viii toward the United States. While
the complete transaction is good
business deal for Great Britain, the
fact stands out in public opinion that
the British did what the Americans
would not. We, in financial circles.
understand that money is badly needed
for domestic purposes in the United
States. Nevertheless. Britain and
America are represented as waging
commercial contest for trade in Ar
gentina. The economic effect of the
transaction in favor of British pres
tige is obvious"
AS told in local banking circles, the
best terms that Finance Minister Sala-
berry could get from the American
bankers on his recent trip to the
United States was a renewal of the
$4,000 900 for five years. at per cent,
the bankers asking delivery of the new
bonds at 90, which would have beer
equivalent to an interest Of ga per
cent. The maturing loan was at 6
per cent.
Turning to the British government
through prominent Anglo-Argentine
banker, the Minister was able to get
a loan of $4,000 900 at per cent
to pay off the Americans. This he was
able to do. it is pointed out, because
of conditions which enable Great
Britain to pay her own obligation to
Argentina, s100,O0O0OO credit for

English Wholesale Trade
Said To Be Slackening

Wholesale trade in England accord :
ing to the representative Of leading
British department store organization,
mas slowed up in much the same manner
that American trade has. This organi-
cation, which formerly was buying
tremendous quantities of goods for use
IN It's English retail and wholesale es-
tablishments has ceased buying here,
and also in England, except on certain
commodities which must be kept in
stock constantly.
ne situation does not exactly par
allel that in this country, however, as
widespread price-cutting by retail has
not yet materialized Sales, as con-
Quoted by the American retailers, are
little used in England. The larger
stores conduct clearance sales twice a
year-only at the end Of the winter
and summer seasons.

Indianapolis, Ind. Oct. fs. -
Strongly urging American leader
ship npromoting permanent inter-

Harding in two addresses here to-
night, asserted that acceptance of
the Wilson league by the United
States would be "tragicslly un-
wise"
He restated his former recon-

the settlement of International dis
putes by arbitration and even went
SO far as to state that IF in the
failed league of Versailles there can
be found machinery which the
tribunal can use properly and ad-
vantageously by all means let it be
appropriated"
Senator Harding asserted that
America must play her part to pre-
vent future wars, whether she
acted Independently or with the
other nations. America, he said,
must not become involved in an as
sociation which creates more wars
than it avoids and must retain the
right to exercise her own con-
