LETTER
BY PARKER LA MOORE


Congressman George NJ. Young has
the reassembling Of Congress on Sep
the Federal Farm Loan Board to close
up the seed loan transactions of the
Government for 1919 in such way
as to cancel notes where the yield
was less than five bushels per acre
in the case Of rye and other grains.
as well as wheat as was stipulated
in the former relief bill.
This bill also provides that those
who paid their notes in Ignorance Of
the law passed by Congress may have
q refund of the amounts so paid.
A second bill being prepared by
Representative Young covers the seed
loan transactions of the present year.
There is now no law to authorize the
cancellation Of notes where there has
oeen crop failure. This bill will
permit cancellations where the yield
has been less than five bushels per
acre. #l10
Congressman Young will have these
bills ready by the time Congress re-
turns to Washington late this month
and will press both measures for
speedy consideration,
Il u II
Although the Senate Finance Com
mittee has been somewhat divided
over the revenue bill sent to that body
after its passage by the House fair
progress is being made upon the mea-
sure. There is still the possibility
that an insurgent movement in the
committee itself will throw the whole
bill out and lead to revamping of
the entire plan Of tax legislation but
the probability of such an event is
now less than it was some time ago.
That a counter proposal will be made
seems certain but the outcome of such
move remains a matter of specula-

tion and in the end 1t is probable that
the House bill in an amended form
will be reported to the Senate. The
Finance Committee has planned, &C.
cording to previous announcements, to
have the bill ready to report when
the Senate reassembles September 81,
and the Senate leaders in turn have
expected to pass the bill by October
3rd, in order that it might come up
at once in the House.
In the meantime indications seem
to point to long delay in the enact
ment Of permanent tariff legislation
and while Northwestern members are
certain to view such procrastination
with impatience it will be difficult to
expedite action in vew Of existing cir
cumstances.
The War Finance Corporation has
announced that it has appointed local
Agricultural loan agencies in the var
ious agricultural and livestock dis
tricts throughout the country whose
duty will be to receive applications
for loans in their districts under the
Agricultural Credits Act recently
passed by Congress and to make rec
concentrations as to these loans to the
War Finance Corporation.
This method of procedure will save
great deal of time to the local bor-
rowers and will give the War Finance
Corporation the benefit Of the exper-
ience and local knowledge of condi-
tions by the bankers, who will COM
pose the Agricultural Loan Agencies.
As the administration of the Act is
almost entirely banking proposition,
the list of members consists of bank
ers, both State and National, who are
familiar with agricultural conditions
in their sections. In order that fire.
quent meetings Of the committees may
be held, it was found necessary to
appoint three members in or near
cities where agencies are located.
Where two or more states are served
by one agency, members were ap-
pointed by each state. The names
were chosen on the recommendations
of the various business organizations
in the different districts. Members
