He said the means to be adopted by the corpora- | tion in making advances to exporters would not be determined until it was known what needs the corporation would be called upon to meet. Funds for making the loans must be borrow- | ed by the corporation of the treasury, | he said, but until it is known how much money will be required, it would be poor policy to pay interest on the loan fund. Secretary Houston said the fact that the corporation cannot make advances directly to producers, but must extend ite loans to exporters or instituted financing exports, should not be lost sight of. Applications are required, he said, to satisfy the corporation that they cannot obtain the desired loan e)sewhere on reasonable terms; must produce adequate security and the ex- port proposition must meet approval of the corporation. From this, it would appear, he added, that an exporter | must have his contract before a loan | from @1e corporation can be obtained. Per Cent on Investment. the use of the deposits.
