Urge, Cancellation
Of Percentage OF
lnter.Allied Loans

Observation-Disclosures tion of some
percentage Of. the inter-4llied loans
vas suggested. by Fred 1. Kent, vice
president of the Bankers Trust COM
naHy of New York, to the National
Foreign Trade convention here as a
factor that would accelerate the re-
turn Of trade and commerce through
out the world. Nj. Kent stipulated,
however, that such cancellation
should be made after agreements as
to cooperation and that the percen-
tage of loans cancelled should repre-
sent a direct land legitimate war
charge to the nations taking part in
the cancellation.
AS the war went on, he said. sit
turned out that in q large part we
were actually leaning to the allies; to
make 1t possible for them to save the
lives of American heys-. After the
armistice large sums were spent by
tthe%allies from the proceeds of loans
which had been made them by. the
United States for purposes Of recon-
struction and during the. war pay
ments in large amounts were made
for civil purposes. Such sums should
be paid.
Should it be found on examina-
ton that some round percentage such
as, say, so per cent of the loans made
our dlLleS can Dc LalFly STATED. pN THIS
country as having gohe primarily for
its own services and. if we should
then come to some agreement with
u allies under which their govern
ments would ce-operate with this
country toward bringing order out of
the present economic chaos which
exists, the good to this country and
to the world would be inestimable.
such action or the part of the
United States, in~telligently carried
out, can be made to go a long way
toward relieving some of the obstacles
which stand in the way Of the return
to the normal foreign exchange

University Of Marking. to
Extend Work in Gomez
. ton With Industry.

NankinE-(By Mail.)-In line with
the growth of textile industries in
China n the increasing number of
busy spltndles in mills Of the country
the University Of Marking plans this
year to continue and to broaden the
scope of its work to improve the
quality Of cotton produced by Chinese
growers. This effort is receiving the
liberal support OF cotton mill interests
q the larger centers, particularly
Shanghai.
4 The university plans to carry out
two general purposes, first to obtain,
for Chinese growers an acclimafized
and improved seed supply and second,
to introduce Its use among growers.
Authorities have stated that in other
countries the production Of acclim-
atized cotton seed has required from
three to five years. With a view to
Fastening this stage what is perhaps
the most elaborate and detailed piece
Of acclimatization work ever attempt
ed in the history Of cotton growing
is being carried out 1T Marking.
The work was begun last year when
the seed fields not only were severely
rogued to discard all plants not true
to type, but thousands of individual
plants of the Trice and Acala vari-
cites were selected and picked sep
arately. The selected specimens Of
seed cotton from these plans were
studied with exhaustive detail in the
laboratory where all but q total Of
about eight hundred were discarded.
These have been growing in separate
rows and picked separately for fur
Their study in field and laboratory
with a further discarding Of the poor
est and retaining of the best.
As a result of the first years work
it was possible to 5 Announce .ifhis
spring that this acclimatization meth
cd can be successfully applied in
China. About a third of the selected
specimens are above the standard OF
average American cotton. it is said,
and a tenth are much superior to the
product with which the work was
started. Nc.
