INSTALLMENT PLAN
MAY BE APPLIED To
U.S.FOREIGN TRADE
fBy Assoclated Press

WASHINGTON June 29.-Applica-
ton OF the idea-of sales "on the install
ment plan" to American foreign trade
as means of developing closer rela-
tions with Southern American buyers
and stimulating trade with the Latin
American republics is being studied by
the United States section of the Inter
American high commission
Efforts are being made, c. E. Nc
CURE, assistant secretary general of
the commission said today, to make it
possible for both North and South
Americans to do business with each
other on a conditional sales basis,
which he explained was an extension
OF the installment plan constantly used
by American retail merchants whereby
title to the goods remains in the seller
until practically all of the purchase
price is paid.
Sales of American commodities TO
Latin America, on the installment plan,
he commended would result in a greatly
diversified wholesale and retail trade
between the two continents, as broad
er market for the specialties produced
in this country, such as agricultural
implements, and utensils would be
opened up. AT the same time, he add
ed, the South American buying public
would be brought into closer touch
with American merchandise by being
able to obtain articles in daily use in
this country instead of exclusively the
larger products.
To Diversity Shipments
Reversing the proposition, Mr.. Nc
CURE declared 1t was believed posi-
BILE equally to diversity Latin American
shipments to this country so that in
stead of the imports from them being
mainly hides, coffee, nitrates and the
products of the chief industries of the
various countries, some of their minor
commodities would be sold in this
country to retailers on conditional
Gales basis.
As TO the trade already flowing be-
tween North and South America, he
said the commission was trying to ex-
tend the use of bankers acceptances"
10 the broadcast possible scope in order
that the merchants of both continents
might take advantage of their credit
facilities and engage in trade which
otherwise could not be carried on be-
cause of a lack of available generally
recognized credit, banking and com
mercial, upon which proper selling ar
engagements could be based.

BONUS BILL
IN LAST FIGHT
ON LABOR DAY
Republican conferees VIII
Then Consider Measure in
Executive Session.
BY WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON.
International News Service.

The nattle-scarred adjusted COM
pensation bill, providing nearly
81. 900 .00o. 900 for American veterans
of the world war, will be tossed into
it's last legislative fight on Labor
Day, when Republican cohferees will
consider 1t iD executive session, Sen.
ator McCumber (Rep) of North
Dakota, It's author. announced last
night. ...
Republican members of the bonus
conference will attempt to reach an
agreement Monday, but will not meet
the Democratic conferees until Tues
day, because of the absence OF Sen.
ator Simmons Dem.) of North Caro-
lima, ranking minority member. The
confer ence report, Il was predicted,
will be submitted to the House and
Senate later that day.
The conferees, meanwhile, raced
against time yesterday In considera.
ton Of the tariff bill. They hope TO
complete their tariff conference re,
port by next Saturday for submis.
sion to Congress early the following
week.
Administrative features of the
bill, excepting controversial issues,
were discussed during the day. and
agreements were reached in nearly
all instances. So much speed was
made by the conferees, according
to reports, that the entire cotton
schedule was also completed.
Most Of the controversial issues.
however, will be decided next week.
These include the sugar, wool, and
dye schedules, the flexible tariff
provisions, and the question of
valuation. While House confefees
are expected to agree to delegate
Some power to President Harding to
change rates to meet enw economic
conditions they are expected to
attempt to amend the Senate plan,
This provision, however, will re-
main In the bill, leaders said, even
though amended.
1--WE are making better speed
than we expected in consideration
OF the tariff" said McCumber last
night. AT our present rate, we
should complete the bill by next
Saturday. We have touched upon
a little of everything thus far and
have practically completed consid.
Grafton of all non-controversial
rates.
I'VE have not yet decided on the
sugar or wool schedules, nor the
flexible tariff provisions. The val
uation plan has also been left for
consideration after all the rates are
settled"
