new ENGLISH PLAN
TO AID U. S. COTTON
Economists Idea of Full-Time
Mills to Be Tried Out, Using
American Product.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MANCHESTER, England, Decem-
Der 18.--A noted economists theory
that full-time production, instead OF
part-time and restricted output, will
offset depression is to be tried out
by the Manchester cotton mills using
American yarns.
The practical theorist is John
Maynard Keynes, fellow of Kings
College, Cambridge, and author of the
striking book, 1.-The Economic ConSe-
quences of the Peace" Mrs. Keynes,
whom he married in July, 1925, was
Lydia Lopoukhova of Leningrad, one
Of the greatest living dancers, who
has performed in the United States.
Under his plan, approved by the
organization committee of the Fed
Grafton of Master Cotton Spinners,
the practice of curtailing American
yarn spinning, which has been I'm
effect almost continuously since
1920, will be abandoned.
Mr.. Keynes insisted that the short
time had the effect, by restricting
output, of enormously increasing the
ratio of overhead charges and thus
increasing the cost of the manufac-
tured article for the consumer, to the
advantage of Japanese and other for
eign competitors. He urged mass
production, with fuller utilization of
American raw material.
AS a result of his plan, British
spinners will find work six full days
a week for the first time in nearly
six years in those mills using Ameri-
can yarns, and American cotton
farmers, faced with heavy losses be
cause OF the second large crop in as
many years, will be able to sell part
OF their surplus.

may be brought to the construction
phase in two years, in the opinion of
w. l.. Harding. former Governor of
Iowa, and president-elect of the Great
Lakes-St. Lawrence Tidewater Associ-
alton.
Harding was elected to succeed Fl.
C. Gardner of Chicago at a convention
here.
This is an international problem"
Harding said. Il do not say that we
can dig the canal in two years, but we
can be ready to begin the work if we
approach our negotiations with Can
ada properly.
Canada has already spent about
STA 600, 900 in the new Welland Canal,
and if we contribute toward complet-
ing the route to the sea I believe we
will get prompt action. 1t is costing
Canada about per cent to finance the
Welland project and we can raise our
portion at i per cent. Completion of
the waterway will mean raising about
$50, goo. 900 more by Canada and about
$135, 900 900 in America"
Harding said with power develop
ment the project would amortize itself
over a period of 20 years.
