HOW FARM LOAN Is EXPECTED
To IMPROVE LIVING CONDITIONS

er problems Of common interest.
The present farm lean indebted
ness OF the United States is probably
approximately four billion dollars,
and the average interest rate now
charged is between So and per
cent. IF the Farm Loan Act would
reduce the interest rate Of the tni-
tad states by 4 per cent II would
mean a financial saving TO tho far
mFs Of between one hundred and
fsf3y and two hundred million dollars
per year, and this estimate of saw
ing takes no account Of the fact that
high interest rates have reduced the
volume Of farm loan Indebtedness
fsr below what it viii be when q
lower rate is established.
Hish interest rates and unfayora-
bic terms Of farm mortgages have
been q serious handicap to farm. 5ie-
vasopment. Curtailins farm prodac-
uoH has taxed the consumer as we'll
as fbe producer because the limited
production Of food gave an increased
advantage 10 the food Spectator
Tie Farm Loan Aet Is. in a meas
urel revolutionary. It stands for
equality Of opportunity. II says that
the aggressive farmer who goes out
into new lands to enlarge the sphere
OF production is entitled to the same
opportunities as the man who oper-
ates in q territory already developed.
It puts the public interest above the
interest Of any individual. II takes
individual profit out Of the business
Of financing food production.
