Rural Credits Bill a Measure of
Vital Importance to the Country

same facilities of obtaining credit on
his successful farm as the manufac.
turer is upon his profitable mill. This
lis only justice. though belated justice.
In his remarks on the occasion of
signing the measure, the President
wisely said: Il look forward to the
benefit of this bill not with extrava-
giant expectations, but with confident
expectations that it will be of very
wide reaching benefits"
1t is prudent not to expect that all
the evils to which the farming COM
munity has been so long subjected
will be Immediately cured by this leg
islation. Indeed, the law is not all the
more ardent advocates of farmers
credit desire. 1t does not go as far
as similar measures in operation in
Germany and France today have gone
with complete success. Nevertheless
it is great step in advance, and the
Democratic party and the President
deserve unstinted commentator for
its passage.
