Secretary of War Baker once said that our army, as composed back in PLAN KEIMGR THE FARMERS 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 are forced to liquidate, one-fourth of OK 1 An 3! was prominently mentioned by con ferees as probable president oi tne new corporation.

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.
