Hat~ rt nofi'c ree~ occpid y Jla M COMMITTEE APPROVES THE CURRENCY PLAN Washington, Aug. 28.-Secretary McAdoo's plan to accept as a basis for currency notes secured by ware house receipts for cotton, tobacco and naval stores at 75 per cent of their face value was aliproved tonight in ai report by the special committee ap pointed by the conference of represen tative planters, bankers, manufactur ers .and dealers' held here August 24 and 25. The committee recommended that every effort be made to assist pro ducers in holding their cotton for a price that will minimize their losses until the channels of foreign trade are reopened. Eight cents a pound was suggested as a fair basis for loans on cotton. The report, which was' submitted to Secretary McAdoo, follows: "1. That the committee entirely alp proves of and congratulate you on the announcement made by you yester day afternoon that notes secured by warehouse receipts for cotton and to bacco and naval stores. and having not more than four months to run, will be accepted as a basis for the issue o( currency to the members of the national currency associations at 75 per cent. of the face value of said notes. "2. That it is the sense of the com mittee that cotton, tobacco and naval stores should be marketed as deliber ately as possible until they can again be exported in normal quantity and that when properly conditioned, should be warehoused with responsible con cerns, that they should be protected against weather damage and properly insured against loss or damage by fire. ":. That warehouse receipts for those commodities are proper collat eral for loans by banks, and should 'o accepted with such limitations as ,o ;aargin, inspevtion and valuatior. as cc :D ative ba .kers 'may each inl (tscretion see lit to impose.

That cotton does not deteriorate when proiperly ware housed, and is as good 20 years after it Is lpi( le l as wleni it is first gath ered; that it ean therefore be carried over until the restoration of normal business conditions enables time world's cosumlipition to absorb it. The committee is therefore of the opinion that every effort shoild be made to as sist the produceis to hold their cotton for a price that will minimize their loss as far as possible until such tine as the channels of foreign trade shall be reopened. That loans upon cotton made uipon a basis of 8 cents per' poundi for miiiddilang less such marigini as the letnder' shall contsider ntecessa ry wvill afford reasontable protection to bantkers and will greatly facilitate the flhanclitg of' outr mtost inportatnt e1x port crop~ it the ipresent emtergency. "5. That in suggesting 8 cents p~er pound for idd~~ling cotton .as a basIs for loans, it is not the purpose of thte committee to convey the idea opinion the intrinsic value of cotton, that that figure repbresents in their ment to meet the requirements of the situation, and enable the farmer to 'market his cotton in an order'ly and doliberate manner.
