Effects of the New Curtis-Nelson Act

amends the farm loan act by increas-
Ing the depository privileges OF the
federal land banks with the TREASURY
from S6,000,OO0 to S31 100000. Without
such privileges the system would have
found Itself within the last month
without any available loanable funds.
Tor the reaSon that experienced bond
statesmen advised the federal authori-
ties of the unwisdom OF attempting an
other sale Of the farm-loan bonds so
shortly after the close of the previous
Offering.
The Curtis-Nelson act makes GER
tain, so long as bonds can be sold. the
continuous. uninterrupted loaning op-
erations of the federal farm loan sys-
ten. 1t is estimated that there Is
demand In this country for such a
character of investment as our farm
loan bonds to the extent of 5000 OOO,-
900 year. The machinery of the farm
loan system. operating normally, is
capable of putting this amount of
money annually into the hands of the
farm borrowers.
Assuming that these facts are war
ranted. the conclusion follows that the
enactment OF this legislation shall re-
suit In the liquidation of about 81. .OOO,-
100000 Of debts annually.

first take out federal hunting license
costing 81 per year. Every cent OF the
money received from the sale OF such

sary to give effect TO the provisions OF
