Use its money and property to pay for scientific and economic research that helps the textile industry, its related branches, and the production of raw materials. The Textile Alliance, Incorporated may pay the amounts it owes under its agreement with the Department of State directly to the corporation instead of sending them to the U.S. Treasury. Amounts already paid into the Treasury before June 10, 1930, may be credited to the corporation. Once the corporation receives those payments, the Textile Alliance is no longer responsible for them.
