One of tin h'ggest financial drive;

dustrial resources of the United States
ai;.»*»•• I hv members of the senate* an l
a h1 ' pro\ ding for this gigantic mc**
w I! introduced within the nox*
few day- by Walter E. Edge* RepuV
» an senator from Xew Jersey.
Details of the huge nndertakin -•
which involves two billion dollai •**
have been given out by Senator Fdi? •
who says that the proposed pool m: *
- ave to have “the moral hacking ar
material support” of the United Stat«
government for financing of fore it •
trade. The bankers disapproved
♦ *-ongly of the original plan* winch
proposed a tederal corporation n
which the government would contr 1
half the stock.
Owing to t hi - disapproval of a gov

S nafor Edge* who in-i-ts,lhat tl,e
management of fho pool shall he n
private hands.
Following the protestations of Well
• t that the proposed pool was com
ceived in the interest of war-strick* u
Europe and th«* necessary* reliability
tion ” surprise was caused by the :o’
mi sion of Senator Edge that the plan
“i- not regarded as an altruistic mov*
eyent hv these behiml it.” This ad
mi—ion from a sponsor may shed new
’nt on the undertaking.
The proposed legislation, said
Edge. would provide a eliann* 1
*, , th,* release < f a flood of American
manufactures and coincidentally build
.. . iin th< Anu rican mer
chant marine. Senator Edge said that
in preparing the hill he had been n
close conference with the leading men
in th ' financial and industrial world.
‘‘Every one is agreed on the nece.«
ity for such foreign financing ” sai l
Senator Edge, “and the general met
hod of providing it may not be diffi
cult to determine. But in getting down
ro details we are confronted with the
problem as to the advisability of go'
einment participation and the two c«l
laterial problems: “If government par
ticipation is advisable* will the gov
ernment he willing to participate and
if so- to what extent is such participa
tion advisable Vf Of course, there must
1,.. irovernme.it co-operation.
‘‘The sentiment is general* T be
li.'ve- that the government should now
hr relieved from participation in pr
vate business and be kept out of pri
vate business* hut this is a financial
undertaking of such tremendous vol
ume. involving perhaps a couple of bil
lion dollars, that it may he necessary
fo enlist the moial backing and ma
terial support of the government to
assure the necessary confidence of
the commercial*.industrial and tinan
cial interests and of the investing
public and of the people at large.”
Senator Edge said that his tent.i
tive plan for legislation * is* that a
group of financial- commercial and in
dustrial interests should he formed to
conduct the foreign financing “as a
distinctly business enterprise.” Subsi
diary groups of particular interests
might be formed* he said* to hamBo

the various branches of the export
trade, all of which* however* would be
represented in one major group* to
make the plan less cumbersome.
The legislation aims to provide
means whereby* on the shipment of
consignments of American goods ,«•
Kurope. the foreign purchasers would
issue their obligations • which would
perhaps* In* guaranteed by the govern
ments* and against these the
American groups of financiers would
issue groups of debentures to be ab
sorbed in the United States. Such de
bentures* Senator Kdge explained
would- of course, constitute a prime
lien on the foreign obligations.
“Although the scheme will help pio
ertv-stricken Kurope rehabilitate iv
s'lf.*’ said a statement issued from
Senator Kdge’s office* “it is not
guarded as an altruistic movement by
those behind it- but a business plan
for the benefit of the people of tie*
United States and of the industrial
concerns which produce goods of a 1
kinds; of the working people employe*’
by not only such concerns* but also
by the transportation companies and
other interesty which handle the man
ufactured products; of the commerce i
men who sell the goods* and the bank ••
bankers, trust companies and other
financiers who provide the money f°
the world trade.
“Kven the concerns ard the work
ers who provide the raw materials to
the manufacturers are involved in tlm
success of the enterprise.”
In drafting his bill Senator Kdg'
has been in close touch with interna
tional barkers* including Henry I*.
Pavidson and I-rank A. Vanderlip* who
disclosed the plan to have a group of
American bankers pool the industrh *
of the United States with government
backing to handle the export trade.
The givundwork for tho hill was
drawn up hy Senator Owen • former v
chairman of the senate committee on
banking and currency* after a thiv
months' visit to Europe last winter.
Senator Owen's hill provided for tb*‘
establishment of an $1 EOOtMHMMN '*
federal foreipneredits corporation, in
which the Tinted States would own
one-half of the stock* the nafonal
banks one-forth and the exporters
and general public the remainder.
The financiers with whom Senate*
Edge talked opposed having the feder
al goveinmentcontrol foreign trade * »
so large an extent* and the original
bill is now being rewritten on their
advice.

University club* first to ban the club
bar when it was organized and long
before prohibition was even serious! «*
discussed in Texas* has been tho leader
in offering a wholesome substitute
for tho saloon as a social center.
The officers and directors of the
college club discovered that the mem
bers enjoyed teas as much as did tie*
women’s clubs. A series of Allied tea*
were given and* much to the surprise
of the entertainment committee, some
of the early pioneer residents not onlv
attended and drank tea but asked for
second and third cups and became
what was called in the friendly famil
iarity of the club grill “tea hounds.’*
Taking this as a suggestion, the
teas were made a permanent feature
of the club's yearly entertainment uro
gram and were held on Sunday after
noons when tea was served around th *
tables in the grilb the men brought
their families and spent the afternoon
sipping tea* smoking and listening to
a program of music and short* enter
taining talks.
To make them popular with the
club members* these teas wore made
open house affairs at which non-mem
bers might be invited by the members
and it was the weekly practice to en
tertain from 200 to 300 at the teas.
