Gated the taxation Ut nattenai ankA
The speaker stated that dwindlihg

are due to errors In the 1921 tax law
and the existence of about sixteen Ml.

THE FARM BLOC PROGRAM

The Farm Bloc" Senators and Re.
prescntatives will undertake to push
thru some farm bills which the Farm
T3loc considers especially important.
Among these will be mn amendment to
the Farm Loan act to enlarge the a.
mount which can bc lent to one intliv-
idual and provide for more loan funds
1t also will do away with some Of the
red tape which now delays the making
of farm loans. The opponents Of the
the Farm Loan act will undertake to
amend 1t to make the bonds Of the
Farm Loan banks taxable.
While this looks equitable on Its
face II will certainly result In higher
rates Of interest to farmers who use
the farm loan banks and In my opin.
ion will benefit principally the loan
companies and hanks which deal In
bonds and which pay taxes only on
their regular capital stock.
