RESERVE HEAD
REFUSES MORE
AID TO COTTON
Declines Extension Of
Loans To Help Farm
ers Hold Crop

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-Re-
quests of the American Cotton Asso-
citation for governmental aid in fl
nancing and marketing the cotton
crop of the south were denied today
by Governor W. G. P. Harding of
the federal reserve board.
Representative of the association
asked an extension of credit on cot
ton loans estimated at 500 millions
of dollars, to permit the growers to
hold their cotton and prevent the
dumping of it on the market at loss.
The solution of the problem, Cover
nor Harding said, lies with the pro-
ducers and the home banks.
A delegation representing the ag-
ricultural and business interests of
the South was here for the confer
ence. The delegation was appoint
ed at the recent Montgomery meet
ing of the American Cotton Asso-
ciation convention and was compos-
ed of sixty farmers, merchants,
bankers, business and professional
men from various sections of the cot
ton belt. !,
Themembers of the committee said
early today that they intended to ask
the reserve board to remove some OF
the restrictions on credits in order
to improve the financial situation IN
the cotton belt.
