ministratlon plan for establishing a
system of rural credits, passed the SEN
ate tonight by a vote OF SIS to ..
Senators BrandeRee. Lodge. Oliver.
Page. and wadsworth. all Republicans,
voted against the measure.
The bill, after almost two weeks OF
debate, passed the Senate practically
as reported by the Ranking Commit
tee. An amendment by Senator Smoot
reducing the salaries of the farm, loan
board from $4,000 to $1,000 adopted
In the committee of the whole. was re-
considered when the bill reached the
Senate, and defeated.
y somewhat similar bill has been
reported by the House Banking Com
mittee, and. 1t is said, will be brought
up for consideration in the House soon.
!, Like the Senate measure II would
create loan banks. but 1t differs In
means of operation.
The Senate bill provides for a nom
partisan farm loan board to consist OF
the Secretary Of the Treasury, and four
others having general control OF a farm
loan system. twelve or more land
hunks through which loans actually
would be made
EACH RANK no HAVE

Each land bank would have n capl-
tai stock OF at least 100000. TO he sub

tions would be cooperative. made up of
ten or more farmers. who would Oh
tain charter from their district land
bank farmer desiring to become n
borrower would be required to take
stock in tho loan association equal to
n per cent. OF his loan; tho loan as
socintion would in turn, take an equal
amount or stock in the land bank
which would appraisc the security Of
fered and make the loan through tho
association. ON mortgages amounting
TO $4,000 bank might issue like
amount OF farm loan bonds, which
would he secured by all twelve land
banks
All profits would 80 to the loan as
Soeiations In dividends, and thus to the
borrowers who are shareholders in
them. Loans might he on as long
terms as thirty-siX years and on the
amortization plan. SO that with each iu-
tcrest payment. the farmer could ray
ii small amount on his principal Loans
would he limited to first mortgages
and could not exceed so per cent. Of
the appraised value of the land
The principal fight on the hsll was
directed at the sections exempting tho
banks and their mortgages from taxa
tton. and permitting employees to DO
chosen without regard to the civil ser
vice. Both were defeated by par,y
votes.
