A rural credits measure is re-
ceiving the attention of congress
and the prospects for its passage
is good. 1t is said President
Wilson is anxious that the bill
shall pass this session. He says
that he regards rural credits as
one of the really great necessit-
les OF the country. The Demo.
cratic party is showing fine
conception of the. things most
needful and helpful for the coun-
try. This is true in both state
and nation. The last legislature
enacted a rural credits law,
which is TO go into effect the first
OF next December. In this re-
spect Missouri is leading the van.
The bill being considered by oon-
gress is largely patterned after
The Missouri law.
