FARM BONDS TO
HAVE NEW FEATURE

"The Farm Loan Board is not UNI
mindful of general market conditions,
and the forthcoming issue will be not
snly ) per cent. bond, with it's vail
idity fully determined by the SUI
preme court, but will also have a
minimum call period Of 10 years, in
stead of five, as in former issues,
which it is believed win render it
still more attractive said Charles
e. Lobdell, farm loan commissioner
and head Of the Federal Farm Loan
Board.
"This issue of the Federal Farm
Loan bonds will not be brought out
until around the middle of April.
Details of the issue will not be de-
termined until that time. Demand
for loans which shall in the mean
time develop, and condition Of the
market at the time Of issue, will be
taken into account.
Federal Land Banks have prac-
tically no definite commitments at
this time, as applications taken sub
sequent to February A, 1920, were
taken conditionally, and applications
were entirely suspended on May |.
There is, of course, large accumu-
lated demand, owing to the long sus-
pension of business and the dearth
of funds for farm mortgage loans
generally.
Issuance Of bonds with 10 instead
of a five-year minimum call period,
is considered an important step, and
is expected by local bond dealers to
enhance the value Of the coming
issue. Wall Street journal

American concerns from that portion
of their profits derived from foreign

Revision of Revenue Taxes Plan
ned-DelegatiOn From Mexico Re-
ceived-Names Before Harding for
Consideration on Labor Board.

Representative Kitchin, of North
Carolina, was selected Saturday by
House Democrats as the party candi-
date for speaker and Representative
Tague, of Massachusetts, was chosen
to fill the Democratic vacancy on
the ways and means committee. By
his nomination Mr.. Kitehin becomes
Democratic leader Of the House, sue
ceeding the late Champ Clark. In ac-
cepting he declared he expected to
be able to shoulder the bulk of the
work, but requested that, should his
physical condition cause his absence,
Representative Garrett, Of Tonnes
see, be officially designated as acting
leader. The Democratic members of
the ways and means committee will
make minority assignments to stand
ing committees, the representations
on which have been sharply reduced
bv reason Of the increased Republican
majority. The list will not be COM
uleted until this week. Speaker Gil
lett has already been nominated by
the Republicans and was elected to
succeed himself at the opening Of the
extra session Monday. There was
spirited fight in the caucus for the
ways and means assignment, which
went to Mr.. Tague by majority Of
five votes over Representative Hap,
den, of Arizona. The stand recently
taken bv some Democrats on the
Fordney emergency tariff figured
largely in the contest. Mr. ~Tague
voted against the Fordney bill and
Mr.. HAYDEN supported it.

Progress toward formulating a
Republican plan for revision of in
ternal revenue taxes was made at a
conference between Chairman Pen
rose, of the Senate finance commit
tee, and Secretary Mellon, of the
treasury. President Harding has in
dicated he will discuss tax revision
in his message to congress this week
with evidence Of harmony Of thought
between the administration and con-
gress. The consencus of opinion
among Republicans, toward several
principles for tax revision, include
primarily repeal Of the excess profits
tax, which Mr.. Harding advocated in
his campaign speeches, reduction of
surfaces on The larger incomes, re-
peal Of special consumption taxes.
such as those on transportation and
certain stamp taxes, and elimination
Of several commodity taxes. Impo-
sition Of a sales tax is being agitated
strongly, but without certainty of
adoption in the Republican program.
