Record Freight Movement
Reported for September

More freight was moved by class
one railroads during September than
was ever transported in a single
month either during government
control or the pre-war period, ac-
cording to statistics compiled by the
Bureau of Railway Economics.
The net ton miles. which means
the number Of tons of freight multi
piled by the number of miles they
were carried, was 4o.sss.S43.00o for
the month. This was 1,106.9s2. 900
less than the amount for August. but
was 564. 1885, 900 greater than the net
ton miles for July, which was great

ported. The September total exceed

year by 2.13s. $4,000

for any month in the last four
years with the exception of July and
August, 1918, when the average was

attained during September.

OF BANK CRASH

FARGO, n. D.. Nov 23.-Increased
bitterness in the politicaI situation
in North Dakota resulted today
from the closing of nine banks. in

Nonpartisan leaders claimed ths
closing of the banks was caused by
passing of an amendment at the last
election repeating the nonpartisan n
law requiring deposit of all public
FUNDS in State-owned banks, which
redeposited in small banks.

was the failure of the grain crops

Pro and Anti Irish Don't Let Erin Interfere
With Business Relations.

Ireland was much in the air in
Washington yesterday. The Capt.
tails visitors included a group of
men who are living proofs that
friends and foes of the Irish Re-
public can fra.ernize like boon COM
panions. They were headed by Ed
ward l.. Doheny, the California oil
magnate, who is just back from
Mexico with the party OF British
capitalists he escorted to the Tam
pico oil helds. The leading British
representative was Lord Pirrie. head
of the great Belfast shipbuilding
Arm of Harland and Wolff-an ar
dent fisherman. Another member
of the party was Lord Inverforth.
late British minister of munitions.
a hardy Scotsman. 1t would be
more dinicult to find anywhere in
Great Britain and Ireland two more
bitter enemies of Sim Fein than
Pirrie and Inverforth. yet they have
been touring in the private car and
steam yacht OF Mr.. Doheny, who
last week became president Of the
new American Association for Rec
ognition of the Irish Republic"
Lords Pirrie and Inverforth con-
troll the British branch of the Do
heny oil interests. 1t is understood
in Washington that one Of the main
results OF their visit to the United
States and Mexico Is an arrange
ment whereby the Cunard Line, in
which both are heavily interested,
will derive oil fuel supplies from
the Doheny fields in Mexico. In re-
turn, 1t Is said, the Cunard combi-
nation will participate substantially
in the development of the Doheny
properties.
What perhaps will be our closest
contact with the new Obregon gov
ernrnent in Mexico is shortly to be
established through the person of
Col. Harvey ]. Miller. u. s. A.. who
has been appointed military attache
to the American Embassy at Mex
leo City. Col. Miller, who has been
adjutant of an infantry division on
the border, is an intimate personal
friend of President-elect Obregon.

FARMER LOANS
AGAIN VETOED
Reserve Board Insists It Has
Reached Limit Of
Powers.
CONGRESS MAY ACT
Solons From Agricultural
Sections Promise to
Get Action.

In the face of a concerted attack
by the united farm organizations Of
the country, and the certainty that
these organizations will marshal the
strength of the Southern and Mid
die Western Congressman to assail
the policy of the Federal Reserve
Board in refusing to make special
provisions for loans to farmers,
Treasury officials yesterday stood
firmly by their announced policy
that no further loans can be made
at this time.
Secretary of the Treasury Hous-
ton recently told delegates of
farmers organizations who visited
him that the Federal Reserve Board
is already loaned up to the limit of
its powers and could make no spe-
cial provisions for farmers. A SIM
liar view was expressed by w. p. G..
Harding, governor of the Federal
Reserve Board.
Gov. Harding Explains View.
Gov. Harding pointed to a recent
address in which he explained his
views as follows:
the year 1919 tendencies toward un-
restrained extravagance and abuse
OF credit were manifest all over the
country. 1t became evident that the
rediscount facilities of the Federal
Reserve banks were being used too
freely and that unless corrective
) measures were applied the situa-
tion would become exceedingly dan
gerous-
The rapid expansion of loans
which recently took place was due
undoubtedly to crop moving re-
quirements. OF the total amount OF
bills under discount on September
}, 1890. the Federal Reserve Bank
of Richmond estimated that 27.3 per
cent were in support of live stock
interests,
Earnings Derived from Interest.
AS nonmember banks cannot re-
discount with Federal Reserve banks
and as by far the larger part of
the loans of member banks is made
out of their own resources, Ii is
evident that the total OF bank ac-
commodations to agriculture and
live stock interests is far greater
than the amounts rediscounted at
the Federal Reserve banks.
Exception is frequently taken to
the discount rates now prevailing
at the Federal Reserve banks. As
in the case of other banking in
stitutions. the earnings of the Fed
eral Reserve banks are derived prin-
cipally from interest on their loans
and investments"
The farmers claim that in shut
ting down on loans to enable farm
ers to move crops. or hold them
for better prices, Treasury officials
are defeating the primary object of
the Federal Reserve system.
Members of the House and SEN
ate from agricultural sections, who
have reached Washington recently,
declare their intention of making
the question OF farmers credits a
topic in the halls of Congress.
