URGES CHANGES
IN BANK LAW

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, Aug.
26.-Recommending many changes in
the banking and currency laws and
advocating a system whereby the far.
mers of the country will be able to
borrow money, for longer terms and
at lower rates of interest than at pres.
ent. Senator Fletcher of Florida, to-
day addressed the sixth annual con.
vention of the National Conference OF
Governors. The conference, compos.
ed of governors. eX-governors and
governors elect from the different
states of the Union. which was organ
lied at the instigation of President
Roosevelt in 1907, convened here to-
day. Because of the importance of
legislation pending in the national
congress and in the legislatures of va
rious states, and because it has been
the custom of the organization in the
past to take up such matters and base
laws for new legislation on the dis
cussions, this years conference was
expected to be the most important yet
held
Senator Fletcher was one of the
few who are not members of the con-
ference to be invited to address the
state executives. He was chosen be-
cause of his interest in the recent in
vestigation of an American commits
sion into the farmers loans and bank
ing systems of dozen European
Countries. Senator Fletcher describes
several of the best systems of Europe
by which a much lower rate of inter-
est and for much longer periods than
are in vogue In the United. States. This
system, declared Senator Fletcher. is
the chief rason for the wonderfully
efficient farms throughout Germany
France and Holland. 1t is impera-
tive, declared the Florida Senator,
that the United States make it possible
for American farmers to enjoy the
same benefits if this country is to
get the best out of its great industry
OF agriculture.
