New Orleans Aug 4 The New Orleans Clearinghouse Association discussed clearinghouse certificates but did not finalize action. A second meeting is planned with a decision expected. Under Louisiana law the governor must approve the certificates, and Gov Hall is due in the city tomorrow to be asked for authorization. Banks invoked sixty days notice for withdrawals on savings accounts, with certificates likely used only between banks until an emergency federal fund becomes available. The government has promised New Orleans banks 3 million dollars to move crops. Cotton exchange officers said Liverpool New York and New Orleans exchanges will open simultaneously when conditions justify, with ample notice to traders.
