"GAMBLING" IN FOREIGN
CREDIT FIELD ATTACKED
Commerce Department Declares
Road to Security Lies in Better
Intelligence Files.

Gambling" in the foreign credit
field by American exporters was de-
clared by the Commerce Department
today TO be as unnecessary as 1t Is
ill-advised.
Extension Of credit on sweeping
and undiscriminating scale, would be
as barren of results and disastrous in
effect as that of a bank in granting
all of the applications for loans that
are made to it,"
Credit is an instrument of trade,
the department said, land has value;
that value must be figured in the
transaction as carefully as the freight
bill. Moreover it is a privilege to be
extended to those who deserve 1t, and
not a } iSht to be demanded by all. The
real road to credit security lies in the
continuous enlargement and refine
ment of Our world intelligence files.
The splendid development of the
credit interchange idea in the United
States puts into our hands ready
made method Of procedure that is at
once a proven instrument OF domestic
progress and a model for our ap-
proach to similar problems abroad. "
