Changes in Marketing
Conditions, Says Acting
Reserve Board Governor

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22s-Amsnd.
ment Of the Federal Reserve act 30 a.
10 make nine months paper redls-
eountable by member banks was urged
to-day by acting Governor Plat Of
the Federal Reserve Board at the SEN
ate Banking Committees hearing on
the agricultural credits bills.
While under normal conditions the
present limitation Of rediseount privi-
leges TO elk months loans was satIsfae-
tory, changes In marketing conditions,
he declared, made Il desirable 70 In
crease the length Of the loans 10 nine
months. Such an arrangement. with
provision for longtime loans for the
livestock industry, the committee was
told, would provide all the credit
which agricultural interests required
"Where banks are not In good con-
dition Il Is not due 10 agricultural
loans" Mr. Plat declared. "The trou-
bles Of farmers are worldwide" he
added. presenting the committee re-
ports In support of the assertion.
Emphasis was placed by Mr.. Platt
upon the short period Of the turnover
in Federal Reserve banks on redis-
counts, the average throughout the
country being about 40 days. This
condition would continue. he said
should the loans be for nine months
instead Of six.
Should the Lenroot bill providing
for the sale Of debentures based on
personal credits Of farmers be passed
administration Of the law should not
be placed In the hands Of the Federal
Reserve Board, Mr., Piatt asserted, ex-
planning that the board Is not expert
enoed in selling bonds and that It's ma
ehinery could not be readily adjusted
70 handling that line Of business.
An effort 10 bring the hearing 20 a
close to-day met with objection from
several members Of the committee. and
II was decided 20 hear othR witnesses
