RURAL CREDITS ARE
DISCUSSED At FAIR

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23.-This
was Rural Credits Day at the Expo
sition with one of its features an ad-
dress by Myron T. Herrick of Cleve
land, formerly Ambassador to France
in which he discussed in detail many
phases of the rural credits movement.
The grand purpose of the rural cred
it's movement, said Mr.. erHrricb, had
been overlooked by those who expect
ed of it only lower interest rates.
Cheaper money, he declared, is not its
only aim; it rises higher than that and
proposes to enable home seekers to
accomplish their wish, landowners to
procure adequate funds to develop
their holdings, and farmers to mobil-
lie their resources so that American
agriculture may become modernized
and properly financed and keep pace
with progress in every other industry.
Reviewing the five years that the
movement has been in course, Mr. Her
rick declared that legislation in var
ious states looking to the formation OF
credit unions and land credit institu-
tions had little merit. State aid he
believed. to be undesirable in the
United States if private enterprise
could be efficiently regulated and rura'
cooperation intelligently practiced
Among other things he said:
The cause of much of the misun-
derstanding about cooperative bank
! ing and credit is the mistaken notion
! that cooperation is an altruistic or
benevolent emans of helping the down
and-out class of persons who are indi-
| vidually weak and incompetent, This
| half-truth is alive with dangers. Co.

in circulation, but there was no gold
with which to redeem them; and there
was danger that the circulation might
be further expanded through new is

into the country. Soon after the occu-
patton of Belgian territory the German
government deputized Dr.. Won Lumm

the Reich bank to proceed to Belgium
and take in charge the rehabilitation
of the currecy system AS the officials
of the National Bank had refused to
return to Brussels or restore it's as

way of securing the note circulation.
At the time the German author
thorities were levying war contribu-
lions upon various Belgian cities to
raise money for meeting the expenses
of governing the occupied territory
contributions which could not be
easily raised in the form of cash. The
cities were therefore asked to issue
their certificates of indebtedness pay
able at some future time, and it was
decided to use these as one form Of
security for new notes, besides bank
balances abroad, German gold ami
other currency AS the National Bank
had refused to continue the further
discharge of its functions, the note
issuing power was conferred upon the
Societe General de Belgique, the old
