New Orleans, 1., May 14.-The
draft of the proposed powers for the
cotton corporation Will b submitted
later this week to the entire confer
ence of cotton interests representa
tives and adoption of the plan without
material modification la expected.
The authorized capital stock al
though fixed at 1160,000,000 In the ten
tative draft, may be reduced. The
corporation will be authorised to begin
business when the amount of capital
stock subscribed reaches, $20,000,00ff
with fifty per cent paid vl, and pay
ments might be made either In cash.
Liberty Bonds or notes, or treasury
certificates of indebtedness. By this
means approximately $10,000,000 worth
of government securities would be th
basis for financial operations at the
start.. - ,
In addition to finding a market
abroad for cotton and cotton products,
and making: the neecssary , contracts,
the corporation would be empowered
to deal in notes, drafts, checks, bills
of exchange, acceptances,-cable trans
fers or other evidences of Indebted
ness. It could take bonds of foreign
governments or of foreign banks, syn
dicates or other private business firms
and make loans to those foreign in
terests on the Security of their obli
gations. By this means the corpora
tion virtually would sell its cotton to
foreign purchasers on credit, raising
money In this country on security of
the foreign bonds to finance the op
erations. Another power proposed for the cor
poration is to permit it to take stock
in foreign commercial or industrial en
terprises connected with the purchase
or manufacture Of cotton. This might
involve the acceptance of mortgages
on foreign plants and thus give the
American cooperative corporation a
hand in the management of foreign
firms.
Another power would be "to acquire
the good will, business, rights, .prop
erty and obligations of any individual
partnership pr corporation carrying On
a business similar or cognate to the
business which this corporation Is au
thorized to conduct and to pay there
for In cash, bonds Or other obliga
tions of this corporation." This would
pave the way for the corporation to
absorb other cotton exporting organi
zations and is understood to constitute
one of the principal subjects of dis
agreement among the organizers.
Cotton dealers would act through
the corporation In export dealings but
might if they ehose ship goods abroad
in their own name, and receive loan
from the corporation on the security
of shipping documents. The limit of
time for these loans and the interest
rate is not specified in the proposed
organization draft, but it is assume-
the loAna mie-ht be made for as Ions
An 1vtt traafa rtritnIXerS Of the CO ;
operative organization propose that it
might borrow within one year afte?
peace is declared from the govern
ment's war finance corporation which
is authorised within the year to make
five year loans to exporters or banka
Which have financed export transac
tions. --
Authority would also be given ths
corporation by Its organizers to act in
any part Of the United States or In
Anv fAralvn nmin ro- tinth Att itS OW'l
account and as asrent. trustee, broker
or Consignee in dealing in cotton, cot
ton yarns, cotton goods, seed ana seea
oil, or other vegetable oils, providing
the articles are meant solely" for export
trade. .
The organization would be barred by
anti-trust laws from operating in do
mestic trade within the United State.
tn the ; execution of Its functions,
the corporation would be called on
biiv and sell foreiem exchange or oth
er forms, of transfers of credit. This
would enable. the organization to take
advantage of favorable 'exchange sit
uations for the benefit of its compo
nent members. It is -proposed cotton
raisers or. dealers would acquire inter
est in the corporation through pur
chase of stock which might be had at
flOO a share.

New York and Alaska, These are a
few of the unusual preparations which
will make the MethddiBt centenary

men and women also have been chosen
to exhibit their industries, the sum
total being a background against
which can be shown the spread of

Of MethOdiBt missions, now being com

Dr. Elmer E. Higley, of Des 'Moines.

Rev. R. T. Blackburn of Oklahoma
City has engaged a band often Choc

tures of the savage life of the plains
now passed away.
War dances form the central feature
of the Indian section. The rival tribes
go through the gyrations procedinjr
the opening Of the hostilities and reach
the fighting point, following the chal

appears to calm them and avert fight

an Indian wedding ceremonial also are

demonstration of tepee building and
the language of the robes.
The practical side of the missions, as
commemorated by; the centenary cele

science has been Introduced among the
Indians. A life play shows the old
Indian medicine man trying to exercise
illness by incantations. His patient
grows worse, when a field matron of
the missions appears, applies modern
medicine arid affects a cure.
Dr. Higley has spent much time

that almost every disease can be cf
