TOBACCO MARKET OPENS 13 DAYS AFTER TROUBLE Lexington, Ky., Jan. 18.?Selling of the 1920 crop of burley or ciga rette tobacco in central Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio, was resumed to day after a delay of thirteen days due to efforts of persons interested in the growing of the crop to force prices to a higher level. Promises that they will do all in their power to make a "satisfactory market" have been made by manufacturers who purchase most of the crop. The markets in most of the dis tricts have been closed since the morning of Janury 4, when growers virtually forced warehousemen to close their doors because of the low prices offered. A number of minor markets refused to close and have ^been running ever since, with prices reported as better than those offered during the hour or two all markets were open. Sales on the Lexington market were opened at 9 o'clock this morn ing at Tattersall's, the New Fayette and Headley No. 2 warehouses where acutions were going on when the markets were closecr. During the day the buyers will visit all of the warehouses. Warehousemen It is un derstood are refusing to accept ex tremely low grades for sale. Buyers asserted that 25 per cent of the crop is of low grades which cannot be used in the American trade and that they will not bid on the low grades.

Harding Des cribes Existing Condition In Address. New York, Jan. 18.?Both long tei-m credits and investments in Euro j pean securities are called for by the j present situation to supplement ordi nary banking activities in effecting | the economic and financial rehabilita tion of foreign countries. Governor Harding of the federal reserve board declared in an address here tonight ! before a meeting of the New York 1 State Bankers' association. o 1-:? -- Opt^aA-Hlg Ull TTUIMUg uaun. 'IV Normal," Governor. Harding asserted that whatever danger of crisis there may have been is passed and that a [ bright future is ahead, to be attained j through hard and intelligent work. Production must continue if the 1 country is to prosper, the governor 1 | said, but surplus must be disposed by ^ ! sale to foreign countries. Under pres- 1 ent conditions, he continued, many ^ countries can not pay for goods in * the usual manner and "it is neces- * sary that we should devise new means 1 of financing our foreign trade." Continuance of trade with Europe e n is vital Governor Harding declared, and the maintenance of "the trade ^ relationships of other countries with v Europe" is scarcely less important. a "Otherwise there will be a con- a stant tendency," the governor ex- e plained, 'toward the accumulation here of goods, principal raw mate- t rials from those countries, arhich j we have been in the habit of selling v to Europq, but which now, on ac count ofE urope's inability to pay and their own inability to extend P credit, they are shipping to the Uni ted States in order to sell for cash." a Referring to the unsettled exchange H situation he said that 'in the present t: circumstances it would be vain to ex-1 cj ?ect to finance our exports to Eu-Im > Bes Li buy adverti ily goods fair lagine a metchai 2; aud will not gi iblic condemnati :hant signs his na ion of his busines t fr? all mp l ?=>nnlp V fcV Mil VftAV/ d most of his frie i buy advertised ised.

"The war finance corporation has been revived," he added, 'and subject to the act creating it, it is author ized to extend credits in export transactions, but it is evident that new agencies must be resorted to in order to furnish Europe with long time credit which is so essential for her rehabilitation and for her con tinuance as a potential buyer in the world's markets." Foreign trade financing companies j incorporated under the Edge act are i already in operation under fi deral J supervision, Governor Harding said, and should their operations prove successful, the formation of others i.s | to be expected. 1 TO ANNOUNCE COACH Clemson College, Jan. 18.?Tiger j 1 rown is rejoicing over the fact that i fine football coach has been signed ip and that he will report for duty February 1.
