: Says Nebraskans

Representative Green Sur
prised That !Omahans Have
Not Formed Corporation
To Finance Stockmen.
BY E. c. SNYDER,

Washinsten Correspondent Omaha Bee
; Washington, Now l7,-Congress-
man Green OF Iowa, in talking over
the opportunity presented Tor carry
ing loans on sheep and cattle Under
I the war finance board, said today:
1T is . matter OF surprise to me that
the packers aud others connected
I with the Omaha stock yards have
not formed corporation for the
purpose OF carrying loans made on
sheep and cattle which are to be
corn fed. Such corporations have
been formed in a number of states
= and one has recently been organized
at Des Moines, but il is not the sue
cess it would be ii its Offices were at
Omaha. -
II have been talking recently with
Mr.. Meyers. the managing director
OF the war finance corporation, abou.
the matter of loans to be made on
feeding paper in Iowa and Nebraska.
Corporation Is Willing.
"The war finance corporation is
ready to purchase, notes secured on
animals to be fed, guaranteed by the
banks, but many banks are afraid
to further increase their obligations
and this in many cases prevents those
who desire TO feed cattle or sheep
from obtaining the necessary funds.
Yet it is of the highest importance
that they should be enabled to do so.
"The war finance corporation
stands ready TO take notes secured
upon feeding animals to the amount
OF about 10 times the capital of the
concern which originally receives
them
Lose Good Opportunity.
Thus a corporation organized with
$4,000 capital could negotiate feed
er ioans to the amount Of 100000
or S5,OO0,000 with the war finance
corporation.
II understand that under the pro-
visions of the Nebraska law there
Is restriction Oh the amount Of in
debtedness which such corporation
might incur, but it would be easy to
60 across the line into Iowa, form
such corporation, and have its
offices for business purposes in Oma-
ha. The business men of South
Omaha ought to rise to the situation.
