Foreign Trade is Necessary for Com
mercial Progress in the
United States.
Chicago. 111.. Dec. 10. Organiza
tion of a corporation to finance for
eign trade to be backed by bankers,
manufacturers and merchants was
indorsed today by prominent speak
ers before a conference under aus
pices of the American Bankers' as
sociation. The proposed corporation would be
formed under the Edge law with
a capital of $100,000,000. available
to American producers as cash pay
ment for their goods on which for
eign buyers would be unable to pay
cah.
This foreign trad?, speakers said.
was necessary to the commercial pro
gress of the United States, and some
method of financing foreign trade
must Le worked out to enable Amer
ican manufacturers to take their
place in the world trade.
Herbert Hoover, speaking before
the af2 rnoon session. declared if
the progress were successful today's
conference would have been the most
lnonintc.:? since the armistice.
"You are gathered here for the
fundamental purpose of doing some
thins: practical in the solution of a
financial situation by every day
means." Mr. Hoover said. "You have
a great problem, for our farmers to
day are suffering great losses and
our workmen great unemployment
This is due to a considerable degree
to tne stagnation in orders for our
export surplus.
Home Market Affected.
"From this stagnation the consum
ing power of our own home market
is reduced and effects are accumu
lating upon us.
"We must face the issue that these
economic ills arise in from the vi
rion:; economic circles that can be
broken in one way only, and that by
the establishment of credits abroad,
not the dangerous short time credits
. in which we have already become
over-extended, but the long time in
vestment in reproductive .enter
prises."
William C. Redfield, former secre
tary of commerce, urged a world
wide trade development, saying that
America was yet in the infancy of
her export trade. lie asserted that
"tremendous pull of English capital
is operating abroad in favor of Eng
lish industry."
The farmers viewpoint was ex
plained by J. R. Howard, president
of the American Farm Bureau fed
eration, who said that if the pro
posed corporation would provide a
market for farmers products, it
would have their backing. Julius II.
Barnes, former head of the United
States Grain corporation, and Eu
gene Meyer, jr.. who headed the War
Finance corporation, presented their
views trained from experience in gov
rnment work during the war.
Depends on Fanners.
Mr. Howard maintained that for,
the past four or five years the farm
er had not prospered as ha3 busi
ness. "The prosperity of this coun
try, which is not now so very prom
ising:, will not again be in full swing
until buying power of the faVmer is
restored." he said.
"Practically one-half of the farm-,
ers of this country are tenants, men
of little capital. If these farmers

The following from a Des Moines
daily will be of interest here, say
the Weeping Water Republican. Art
Coglizer, the youne athlete mention
ed is a son of Will A. Coglizer. and
a grandson of Mr. and Mrs. S. G.
Coglizer, of Weeping Water:
"Art Coglizer, former West High
grid star, is playing a great game
with Kemper Military academy at
Dooneville and is being praised by
the critics in the state of Missouri.
"Coglizer is playing at right end
and is said to be going better than
ever. He is also punting and drop
kicking for his mates and is said to
be doing a good job of. it.. He has
made seven drop kicks this season,
one coming from the 43-yard line
and another from the 41 -yard line.
"Of the eight games played by
Kemper this season, six were vic
tories for the Boonville eleven, while
the other two were ties. Kemper
has scored 258 points to 22 for its
opponents."
sustaining, so great were the trades
therein represented. j
Now Plattsmouth's contribution to
that army was comparatively small,
but the classes of work to which 1
those who did go were accustomed
are fully as numerous as were the :
hues in Joseph's coat of many colors. I
In fact nearly every useful trade for .
which one might find use in every-
day life is here represented.
This accounts for the comparative
ouco with which tne e--serviee men
...... 1 u. -J
are handling the work of remodeling
and redecorating the interior of their
recently acquired club home in the
Leonard building.
Carpenters, plasterers, electricians,
painters, upholsterers, plumbers and
paper hangers are among the more
important trades being called upon
to assist with the work, but there are
a score of others whose services may
be in demand a little later.
The work is progressing nicely
with the interior remodeling, and
tonight a detail of carpenters and
helpers under direction of Carl Wohl
farth will engage in constructing a
cross partition separating the rooms,
together with the tast of hanging a
set of double doors.
In the meantime plastering, wort
is being done and papering will be
next in order. The rooms have been
rewired (concealed type and fully ir.
accord with Underwriters specifica
tions) by Electrician Heneger and
his force of assistants.
Such spirit of enterprise is highly
commendable and doubtless had wucji
to do with influenceing the member?
of the Home Guard company to turn
over unequivocally their remaining
funds for use of the Legion in out
fitting the new quarters.
