Raleigh, April 28.-(By Max Aber-

eral James S. Manning as to whether

ate of the 1921 legislature to amend

try agree with the one on the bill

general holds, in telling the secretary
of state that only the Legislature it
self has the authority to amend the
record, ''to state one reason, among
several which exist, why you do not
have this authority. The section
above quoted requires the yeas and

Grafton of the old municipal finance

FARMERS PROBLEM
CENTERS AROUND
FOREIGN MARKETS
SURVEY OF SITUATION
Reports to Federal Reserve
Board Indicate Next Years
Cotton Crop Will be Within
rs per cent of This Years.
Total Which Was an Oyer
Production.

Washington, April 2S.-Governor
Harding of the Federal Reserve
Board announced today shat he may
begin next week a personal survey
of the farm credit situation in the.
middle Western states.
The board the governor said had
thought it advisable that he make a.
tour of the farming area so as to
learn the first hand problems of coun-
try bankers.
The real crux of the farmers prob
lem is the foreign situation Mr.. Hard
ing said.
The farmers must have a market
for their commodities as they can
not go on indefinitely with no sale
A reduction of the rediscount rate
might aid the farmers by making
possible a more liberal market for
grain and cotton not only in England
but in European countries.
The Federal reserve board has no
specific plan for the relief of farm
ers. Reserve banks could not make
direct loans to farmers but they
might rediscount loan of member,
banks. = Il.
Reports to the board, Mr.. Harding
said indicate next years cotton crop
will be within 75 per cent of this
years total although at the end OF
the present cotton year July 1 there.
will probably be surplus Of mil
lion bales or nearly worlds supply
In the face of this situation banks>
ers naturally are cautious in increas-.
ing loans on farm papers. Sufficient
advances will probably be made to
care for the immediate needs of the
farmers in preparing this years
crops.
