Severely Criticise
the Hollis Measure
Now In the Senate
(From Forum correspondent).

(From Forum Correspondent.
Washington, March From the
standpoint Of North Dakotansa in and
out OF congress the Hollis rural credits
bill, recently reported to the United
States senate, is subject to more or
less criticism. .f
Sen. AISLE J. Gronna, who has made
a study of the subject for a number of
years, says there is too much red tape
and expense in the system prescribed
in the Hollis bill, and there is danger
of getting it into politics. The senator
says, however, that it is a step in the
right direction and that the law can
be perfected in the future.
Rep. Peter D. Norton, who also has
studied rural credits and has intro
duced a bill for making farm loans,
says that the Hollis bill does not de-
