on security, (your 100000 worth
of land being the security, so sound
that you will readily dispose of them
at or above par. The bonds would
draw 3 to 4 per cent and run from
50 to rs years. ~~
Who, you ask, will be the buyers ?
| Your neighbours; the butcher, the
shoemaker, the widow with mite
to invest; all people with small saw
ings or large. The security for so
small as a 500 bond is still your
100000 worth of land. That land
is the capital stock of your borrow
ing association.
The security Farmer Bill Smith
gives to this organization, Tin which
he is partner, by the way) is a
mortgage on his particular land.
Under this system there are no law
suits because the farmers mortgage
is rendered equivalent to judgment
against the land, which the organi-
cation itself would enforce, if neces-
sary, to collect.
Must Determine Land Titles.
Before this system could be sue
cessfully operated in the United
States, however, the national govern
ments would have to pass legislation
prohibiting further questions of land
titles on lands of the corporations,
and also for determining the soil
valuation of each section. State law
changes would also be necessary in
this connection. ......
However, this is. the only REAL
solution of the problem of rural
credit. Why do you not get con-
gressional representative in line on
it? Also your state legislature?

stance, the mortgage money lenders.
But the other and large moneyed in
terests of the country will favor this
system, because it will put you on a
prosperous basis and therefore in
crease and stabilize the value of their
own interests.
Opposition by Loan Interests.
You will find that your opposition
will come from the small-loan finan-
cial interests, who are not anxious
to see you get out of their grip by
organizing your own financial sys-
tenn and having the people at large
turn their money direct over to you,
on bona-fide and gilt-edge security,
because they are at present obtain
ing this very money from the people
and lending it to you.
You must not forget that you own
the land, and that the land is the
basis of all wealth; that therefore
you must hold the fundamental Sc
curity. 1t is only question of put
ting this security in acceptable FORM
All you need is ORGANIZATION
You must have NATIONAL organiza-

cember.-
By David Lubin.
(U. s. Delegate, International Insti-
tute of Agriculture, Rome.)
Written for the United Press.
New York, Oct. 19.-When Presi-
dent Wilson declared that 1.-THE ques-
ton of rural credit is the most vitality
important problem confronting the
American people today" he certainly
knew whereof he spoke. =
You farmers who go blindly on
from year to year. letting financiers
dictate whether you shall have
enough cash at reasonable interest
with which to run your farm, are
doing a very foolish and unnecessary
thing.
Yesterday told you how you
could form an efficient national mar
keting organization; with, ramifica-
tions in every township in the coun-
try. /" " :.
System Controlled by Farmers.
Today I am going to show you how
you can form a national rural credit
system along the same lines. A sys-
tenn owned and controlled, not by
bankers, not by business or profess
sional men, nor by anyone whose in
terests would conflict with yours
but owned and controlled absolutely
by you-The Farmer.
What I tell you here is nothing
but facts about a system which, in
the ISL years it has been in opera
ton in Germany, has not known a
| single failure. It's bonds now hold
their owns as they always have,
! whether in normal or in abnormal
times. Why? BECAUSE ITS BONDS
ARE BASED UPON THE LAND IT.
SELF, WHICH NO ONE CAN HARM;
AND THEY ARE BONDS ISSUED BY
THE FARMER HIMSELF. "
The system is known as the Land
schaft. YOU can. adopt and adapt It
in the United States If you will. You
would thus have your own organized
financial corporations under charter
from the United States government.
You and group Of your neighbor-
ing landowners, after getting the
charter, would determine the actual
cash value Of; Your combined land
holdings. Say it was $5,000,000.
Merchants will Be Buyers.
You would issue on each mortgage,
bonds. to be sold in the open market

 The newspapers here also charge that England Is taking advantage of the opening of congress to in cense the Americans against tha Germans.
