England Closes Cotton Exchange

WASHINGTON, R- Senator O'Mahoney D.-WyoD contended today that Great Britain is using out own loans against us" in a battle for world trade centering around such products as wool and cotton.
 The Wyoming Senator, who voted for the $3,75O, 100000 Brit ish loan when it was approved by Congress a year ago, told a re- porter he regards recent action by the British Parliament as putting an end to private cotton trading.
 Parliament earlier this month passed bill banning private i'm portation of cotton and closing the Liverpool cotton exchange. The bill provides for government commission to buy the fiber in bulk lots, as was done during the war. England also maintains con- trols over wool transactionsD
 ''We are up against a wall of state monopolies in the sale of wool and cotton and any interna- tional trade agreement is doomed to failure until we succeed in get ting Great Briatin and Russia to agree to a private trading system again." O'Mahoney declared, add ing: "The British are using our own loans to finance these opera tions. The Russians are doing the same thing in the way of operat- ing state .monopolies."

Navy Seeks To Convert Vessels

WASHINGTON, (P)-The navy asked Congress today for permis- sion to equip four submarines and three ships for polar operations, and to convert nine big destrOyers into special anti-submarine yes sells.
 The program was outlined to a House armed services sub-com- mittee by Vice Admiral Earl w. Mills, chief of the bureau of ships.
 Mills told the committee two submarines will be converted into troop-carriers equipped to trans port 100 fighting men each as far as 5000 miles underseas. A third submarine will become a cargo carrier, if Congress approves, and another will be equipped as a "polar picket craft"
 The conversion program also contemplates, he said, refitting two docklanding ships and one at tack cargo vessel for operation in polar waters.

Canadians Can't Hoard U. s. Money

OTTAWA, (P)-Moving to cur tail hoarding of privately-obtained United States currency, Canadian finance minister Douglas Abbott today announced regulations re- curing Canadians poss n g more than $10 in U. s. funds sell them to the Bank of Canada.
 The minister emphasized that no change was being made in the policy of making "any reasonable amount" of U. s. funds available to Canadian residents for legiti- mate travel purposes. AS in the past, residents would obtain neces- sary funds and permits from the foreign exchange control board through the banks.
 Abbott emphasized the new reg ulations would not affect the free dom of American tourists to bring funds into Canada or to take home any money not spent during their stay in the Dominion.
