WARNS BORROWERS
ABOUT ORGANIZING
EXPOSES SCHEME TO MAKE
PROFIT.

The Federal Farm Loan Board has
issued warning to the farmers Of
the United States to beware of organ
izers who are attempting to make
private profits in the application of
the farm loan act.
Attention of the board has been
called to the fact that in many parts
Of the country the organization of
farm loan associations is being in
spired by the desire of certain indi-
viduals to create jobs for themselves.
The farm loan act provides for the
payment of small salary to the Sec
retarytreasurer of each farm loan
association, and it also permits the
payment of fees to members of the
appraisal committee of each farm
loan association. subject to the ap-
prevail Of the Federal Farm Loan
Board. Each borrower under the
farm loan act is required to provide
an abstract of title and the board
has advised that farmers constituting
an association to join together, as in
dividuals, in getting one attorney or
abstractor to prepare these abstracts
comparatively so as to reduce the eX-
pense to minimum. Complaints are
now being made that certain individ-
uals are organizing farm loan asso-
Citations to get themselves elected
secretary-treasurer at excessive sal
aries; that borrowers are being un-
necessarily taxed for the payment of
the appraisal committee and that in
some instances attorneys and alb
stractors are using the system with
a view of creating business for them
selves.
The farm loan board is urging
farmers to organize small units
where practically all of the work can
be done gratis by members of the as
ISOLATION and thus maintain the pure
ly cooperative character of this farm
loan system.
1t warns that any association
which gives evidence Of having been
organized for purposes of private
profit will be given very careful
scrutiny before a charter is granted.
The sale of stock in the twelve
federal land banks is now complet-
ed. The law required that the stock
of each of these twelve federal land
banks should remain on sale for thir-
ty days and at the end of that time
the government should purchase all
of the remaining unsold stock. This
thirty-day period ended with the
close of business February 9Th. and
the secretary of the treasury, acting
for the United States government,
will purchase the unsold part of the
100000 capital stock of these
twelve banks.
