REDUCE FOREIGN REG. RATES
Samuel Cutter of Postofice Announces
New Rates on International Money
0rders-Begin Tomorrow.
ENCOURAGED TO SEND MONEY

An order reducing the price OF in
ternational money orders beginning
tomorrow, has been received by Sam
uel Cutter, in charge of the money
order and postal savings departments
of the Bemidji postoffice. The change
in rates will directly affect the thous-
ands Of foreigners who send their
monthly checks across the waters.
One of the primary reasons for
inaugurating the rerating of the or
ders is because of the disproportio1-
ate cost to the sender of small sums
of money. The remitters of modest
amounts are frequently the providers
for dependent relatives in their. old
country homes, and the high rates on
these sums in effect since the act of
February 1, 1911, has been "a ma
terial factor in preventing the aliens
from helping their relations. This
is but one of the methods whereby
Postmaster General Burleson intends
to carry out his policy of furnishing
United States postal money order
service at the lowest possible rates.
Moderate Charges.
= For the smallest amounts up TO
SO the charge is only 10 cents. The
largest sum, 800, can be sent to
practically every country for 81. The
intermediate sums cost proportion
ately.
The suggestions sent out with the
order seek to instill the postal saw
ings department of the service into
the financial habits of the foreign po-
pulation of the United States. Rec
ords compiled by the department ex-
ecutive prove that the former large
sums sent abroad to be deposited in
European and Asiatic banks are now
being turned into the American
money channels, with even a greater
degree of safety to the owner than
in the former case. >| E

Stringency of 1912 Will be Avoided
This Fall as During Last Year
Big Saving to Farmer.
MUST PAY BUT SMALL INTEREST
Method Used Proves of Profit to Gov.
eminent Also-All Satisfied Ex-
cept Great Money Trust.
BY Congressman G. H. Tavenner.

BY congressman u. II. IaVenner.
Washington, July 31.-Two years
ago at this time of the year country
bankers of the middle west, the west
and southwest, were down on their
knees begging the money trust of
Wall Street for money with which
to move the crops.
They got it, but they paid dearly
for it in the form of high interest
rates. The annual crop movement
meant money "stringency," high in
terest rates and general slackening
of business.
The farmers, of course, paid this
high interest. It formed just an
other outlet through which the
money of those who toll could flow
into the Golfers of the financial para
sites who do no useful work.
There was Republican admins
tration in Washington two years ago.
This year what difference! Sec
rotary of the Treasury McAdoo has
announced that the peoples own
money, the great treasure resting in
the vaults of the treasury depart
ment, is at the service of the farm
ers for moving this years tremendous
crop. Every penny that is needed
will be sent into the great agricul-
tural districts to help in the useful
work Of getting the crop to market.
The result is known already, for
Secretary McAdoo did the same thing
last year, and the same history will
be repeated.
Interest rates will not go up There
will be no money stringency. The
farmers will not be compelled to lose
part of the fruits Of their toll to the
money trust. For the money trust
is no longer in position to extort
this tribute. 1t cannot stand the
ury.
In fact, as President Wilson has
said about the business condition of
the country, the crop-moving money
stringency was largely ''pyschologi-
call Just as soon as the Wall
Street Bankers found that the gov
eminent was ready to supply money
for crop moving they also found that
they had plenty of money in Wall
Street to send to the West.
They were even willing to allow
the use of this money at normal rates.
So the country banks were not COM
PEELED to ask the Treasury for any
where near the amount of money
that Secretary McAdoo estimated
would de needed to move the crops.
His mere announcement made the
breach in the dam holding the reser-
voir of money in New York, and that
money flowed out freely and cheaply
to the farmers.
The same story is being repeated
this year. In announcing the readi-
ness of the government to furnish
funds from the Treasury to country
bankers, Secretary McAdoo was also
able to announce that in many i'm
portant farming districts the banks
would need no additional money,
since there was plenty Of funds in the
banks available for this purpose.
Not only was Secretary McAdoo
able to perform a great service for
farmers, a service which ranks in
Importance with any other thing
done by the Wilson administration,
but he made it matter of profit
to the government as we'll.
Following his new policy, he
charged banks two percent interest
