The question OF cartels emerged
today as possibly the most contro-
versial subject at the international
business conference with prospects
there would be no agreement on the
issue by the close OF the sessions
at the end OF the week.
The panel considering cartels re-
sumed its discussions after a wide
split developed yesterday. The
Netherlands delegation precipitat-
ed the controversy by declaring
that cartels are necessary for the
expansion OF business, bringing
from the Indian representatives
bitter denunciation of these agree
ments among private interests of
several countries for the purpose OF
regulating industry and trade.
One delegate expressed the opin-
ion that the various viewpoints
were too far apart to be reconciled
in any statement OF policy by the
conference.
Injected into the panel discus
sion was the Kilgore Senate COM
mittee report made public yester-
day which recommended the out.
having OF the International cartel
system" after the war. Copies OF
this report were given members of
the panel by the American delega-
ton without comment.
The group considering currency
relations among nations was ready
TO take up today the sterilization
proposals adopted by the Breton
Woods monetary conference last
July. These provide for a world
monetary fund to stabilize ex.
change rates after the war, and for
an international bank to provide
loans for reconstruction work.
The, currency panel yesterday
heard Winthrop W. Aldrich, chair.
man OF the Chase National Bank OF
New York, advocate the key ma.
ton" plan as the. best approach to
currency sterilization. This plan
advocates the sterilization OF the
two currencies in which the bulk OF
international trade is conducted
the dollar and the British pound
and has been urged by United
States bankers as preferable to the
proposals evolved at Breton
Woods.
Aldrich said the three prere.
