American Cotton Pool Proposed to Export to Europe
Washington July 22 Formation of a great American cotton pool to handle exports to Europe under an agreement with the United States government has been informally proposed to the state department as a means of equitably distributing among producers the cotton trade that Great Britain and her neutral partners would permit. It would be carried on by direct arrangement between the British government and the cotton interests without government participation. The proposal notes that acceding to trade restraints with neutrals on noncontraband would abandon the free seas principle, to be pressed in a forthcoming communication with Great Britain. It is suggested that while settlements are being reached, American officials might informally aid cotton shippers and exporters in their efforts to facilitate trade.
