! F PER CENT |S|ALL DEFENDANTS INTEREST RATE UNI IN HEREIN CASES NEW FARM LOANS FOUND N0T GUILTY
Cheaper Money Will Be Made Available for Agricultural
 Interest

WASHINGTON, April e.-Indica- tons were given by the federal farm loan board tonight that an interest rate of 51a per cent would be charged on loans made by the new intermediate credit banks. At the same time announcement was made by tho board of the official rules and regulations governing loans under the agricultural credits act.
 While the interest rate to be charged will be fixed by the credit banks. subject to approval of the farm loan board, farmers will be able. if the indicated interest rate Is ac- cepted, to borrow money at per cent or less. The law specifics that the rediscounting agency shall not charge in excess of F per cent for handling the obligations.
 Commis sioner Lobdell said he ex- pected some of the banks would be ready to make actual loans by April 20.
 Although 1t Is not necessary that the rates of the 12 banks be uniform. board members believed they likely would be. Mention was made of the possibility that some rediscounting corporations, such as the associations made up strictly of producers. may not take the full fee.
 The opinion was general that a rate of 5Ia per cent with the redis- count charge added. would mean a material reduction to the average farmer in interest. prevailing rates in most agricultural districts being higher.
 The board had decided flor the present. to limit loans under the credits act to live stock. grain. wool, cotton. tobacco and peanuts as sta pie agricultural products" within the meaning of the law. Loans on dairy products, eggs, fruits and vege- tables are left to future determina- ton, but the exclusion of those com modities, it appeared. is not intended to be permanent.

LUXOR, Egypt, Jan. 22,-(By the
Associated Press.)-Interest in the
tomb of Former King Tutenkhamun
has been temporarily diverted
through the discovery by the Amer
lean psychologists of the body Of an
Egyptian princess 1000 years old,
and apparently one of the beauties
of the first Thebian dynasty which
flourished 2,150 years before Christ.
The bosom and neck of the prln'
cess are delicately tatooed with
small blush symbols and traCerieS
emblematic of her caste. The boIy
was marvelousiy preserved. The
hair and teeth are intact. Slight
indentations on the neck, wrists.
fingers and ankles indicate that the
princess wore necklaces, bracelets
and rings in her death sleep, which
were stolen when vandals desecrated
her tomb.
1t is believed she died at an early
age. The body will be sent to TIE
Cairo medical laboratory for a path

ARKANSAS FACING
LOSS Of i. s. AID
IN ROAD BUILDING

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-By the
Associated Press.)-An ultimatum
from the federal government to the
state of Arkansas cutting off all fed.
eral aid funds for the building of
public roads until alleged irregular
tiles within that state are remedied
has been laid down at Little Rock.
1t is the first time such drastic &C.
ton has been taken by the govern
Yment in connection with it's exten-
sive program of assisting the states
in constructing the vast highway
system of the country and is inter
preted as indicating the determina-
ton of the department of agriculture
to insist that all states scrupulously
carry out their responsibilities under
the federal highway act to which
they have agreed.
Henry c.. Wallace, secretary of ag
riculture and administrator Of the
governments public roads funds,
after conferences with Thomas P.
Macdonald, chief Of the bureau of
public roads, sent letter which was
made public here, TO Governor Nc
Rae, of Arkansas, stating that for
the last two years numerous COM
plants had been received involving
the manner of financing the road dis
tricts of Arkansas, the expenditure
of funds resulting from such financ-
ing, and the placing Of assessments
on the lands within such districts to
meet the requirements thereof. The
difficulty Mr.. Wallace de-
clared lies in the state laws provid-
ing for the building of highways
and in the inadequate financial sup
port given the state hinghway de-
partment.
