HALIFAX PLEADS
FOR COOPERATION
Chicago, Nov. 29 flJ.FS A pol
icy of cooperation in postwar in
ternational trade, rather than
cut-throat competition that
would give rise to another Hitler
"to explo't the miseries of the
people and to multiply them ten
fold by another war," was advo
cated last night by Lord Halifax.
British ambassador to the United
States.
"We have two alternative poli
cies from which to choose," the
British diplomat told the Inter
national Bankers Association of
America.
"We can turn the economic
life of the world Into a wild
scramble, leaving the less fortu
nate or less well-equipped to go
to the wall or national bank
ruptcy In whatever way they
cnoose, no said. 'That is one
policy. The other policy is one of
international cooperation." .

A sharp rise in railroad shares
10 a new high since Sept. 16,
1837 and strength in a
of special issues lifted the gen
eral bkck mantel in slightly ex
panded trading.
The rails again responded to
action of the Senate Interstate
Commerce committee, in approv
ing repeal of the Land Grant
lay. Another factor was the an
nouncement of the Nickel Plate
management that the road will
issue 42,000,000 in first mort
gage and collateral bonds due
1962 and use the funds to re
deem two refunding issues out
standing and wipe out a bank
loan.
