Banks May Not Compound
Charges Against Veterans,
McCarl Decides.

Banks may not compound interest
ANNUALLY, semi-annually, quarterly or
otherwise" on loans to veterans on
their Government bonus, Controller
General McCarl has decided.
Answering one of a series OF Ques'
tions propounded to him by Director
Hines of the Veterans Bureau, the
controller general said the law spe'
officially authorized the Government to
compound interest annuMly on the
amount of the Indebtedness charged
against a veterans certificate in case
of default in payment of the loan, but
he pointed out that the same act did
not authorize banks to compound in
terest.
Government Must Make Good.
Gen. Hines sought information, as
the Government will be called upon to
pay certain amounts to loaning

note and an adjusted service certifi.
cate accepted by the bank as security
for payment of the note when the
veteran fails to pay his loan with in
terest at maturity or when the vet
eran dies prior to maturity of the
loan.
This amount, McCarl explained,
would be 'initially charged against
or deducted from the face value of
the adjusted service certificate" In
terest would be charged by the Gov
ernment at the rate of 6 per cent COM
pounded annually by the Government
until he had redeemed his certificate.
Concerning two separate loans on
the bonus certificate. McCarl ruled:
''If a loan We're made during the
current fiscal year for the maximum
loan value stated in the certificate
for that year, and a new loan were
requested during the next succeeding
certificate year to include the amount
of the first loan, together with the
of the principal of the second loan
should not exceed the loan value Of
the certificate for the certificate year
in which the new loan is made If
the first and second loans are to be

cipal of the second loan should not
exceed the difference between tn prin-
cipal of the first loan. plus accrued
earned interest thereon, and the loan
value of the certificate for the Ger.
tificate year in which the second loan
is made, and so on for succeeding
years.
McCarl answered fatty in the mega
tive to this question: May the notes
be discounted in advance where such
action results in bringing the actual
interest rate in excess of the maxi
mum?'

Among the conspicuous weak spots

B OIL WEEVILS
RAVACE COTTON
REPORT STATES

WASHINGTON, Sept 8 tP0 - Boil
weevil ravaged the cotton crop during
August, the present damage to squares
and bolls being very great, the de-
partment OF agriculture announced to-
day in its September cotton report
which forecast this years crop at 49,
$4,000, equivalent 500 pound bales.
Indications are that production will
be five and quarter million bales
less than last years record crop.
Prospects declined to the extent Of
100000 bales since the August fore
cast when indications pointed to a
crop of 13, 1872, 900 bales.
Wet weather over much of the cot
ton belt was decidedly favorable to
the increase of the boil weevil and in
festation increased materially in all
infested sections. Weevil damage is
much worse in North Carolina than in
previous years, the department said,
while the weevils are sufficiently
numerous in northwestern South
Carolina to prevent any further cotton
being made during the rest of the
season. There was continued weevil
damage in south Georgia and the area
of heavy damage extended northWard
during August.
In Alabama weevil infestations were
reported as the heaviest since 1928
out the crop is earlier and more cot
ton already has been made than in
former years of heavy damage. In
festation is now quite general in Missi-
sippi and Louisiana.
Texas reported heavy deterioration
of the crop in August, except in the
northwest and southern districts where
Slight Improvement occurred.
Weevils, boil worms and drought
caused the declines. Largely on ac-
count of the weevil damage, aband-
onment was extremely heavy in Okla
homa, weevil activity in all but the
southwestern districts being worse
than during any of the last five years
