credits. of farmers and stock raisers.
bill will be drawn at once. introduced in
Congress and pushed as an administra-
tion measure
The bill will contain the salient fea-
lures OF several measures now pending
Board will be the agency through which
the relief will be made effective. More
liberal farm credits and cheaper interest
rates will be provided and their benefits
made available to farmers owning small
estates as we'll as those operating on d
large scale.

The White House gave out the follow
ing statement:
"At the close Of a White House con-
ference Thursday afternoon Secretary
Wallace and Senator Lodge made the
following statement:
"The President had in conference at
the White House Thursday afternoon
the Secretary Of Agriculture and Sena-
tors Lodge. Watson. Capper. McNary.
Gooding. Willis. shortridge. McCumber,
Mclean. Nicholson. Fernald and keyes.
The senators chiefly represented the
agriculture and banking and currency
! committees. Two hours were devoted
to discussion of a program for further
relief Of the American farmer and live
stock growers, especially in the way of
credits.
"The various measures proposed
,, were given consideration and a tenta-
tive program of legislation will be
commended to the House and Senate
committees on banking and currency.
The legislation thought to be best
suited to the agricultural and live
stock emergency contemplates pro-
visions for
Increasing the maximum Joan
limits of federal farm land banks
from $4,000 to $25,OOO.
Provision for the voluntary crea-
tion of live stock and agricultural
credit associations primarily to deal
with loans on live stock.

Amendment of the federal farm
loan act to provide for the redis-
marketing paper. Also to add two

The program contemplates Great

workable plan of dealing with the
