Want Cheaper Money

Debtors in the cities and town
are listening to invitations to join
the farmers campaign
The farmers have had popular
sentiment on their side to a great
extent so long as they have con-
centrated their attack on small loan
companies, the 3 per cent month
creditors. Their protests that this
high rate of interest is unfair have
not fallen on altogether deaf ears,
and today there is pending in the
Ohio legislature a bill to reduce the
legal rate of interest to IL per cent
a month.
With remedies for general farm
conditions, the penny auction move
ment is not primarily concerned.
What we need is cheaper money.
one farmer said, land if that means
imitation, then let's have imitation.
The farmers immediate objective is
to rid himself of his debt burden.

PENNY AUCTION
MOVE WORRIES
ALL CREDITORS
SO Far Restricted to ChatteI
Mortgages, but May
Be Extended.

BIZ Scripps-Houard Nccsp0por AHfanc,
TOLEDO, o, Feb. Where is
the penny auction move for farm
debt cancellation leading?
This question is worrying credi-
tors Of all classes as northwestern
Ohio farmers unite to extend their
practice Of taking over foreclosure
sales and by silent intimidation
keeping the bids down to a few
cents, thereby defeating the fore
closure and keeping the property
in the debtors possession.
So far the united farmers have
aimed their blows only at holders Of
chattel mortgages, which under
Ohio's personal loan laws may legal
ly collect interest of 3 per cent a
month, 36 per cent a year
But the chip is on their shoulders.
In union these traditional indiyid-
ualists have found strength and
their leaders now talk Of cancelling
all their debts by penny auctions.
Settle Things Our Way
A mortgage moratorium is not
enough for them now, they say.
I'VE asked for a moratorium two
years ago and couldn't get it, said
Ralph K. Weaver, farmer of near
Fostoria, O. Nov well settle things
our way
Whereas the farmers were fight
ing foreclosures a few months ago,
they may soon be forcing them un-
der the penny auction movement.
When creditor refuses to fore
close, the leaders Of the debt strike
say, dummy second mortgage Will
be executed on the debtors prop
erty by one of his ncighbors.
Within a short time the neighbor
will foreclose, the property will be
sold at penny auction, the pennies
will go to the holder of the first
mortgage, and The farm will be re-
turned under a dummy lease.
The movement hasn't reached
that stage yet. but the leaders are
talking about it and creditors art
worried.
IT'S illegal" say the mortgage
holders, and in at least one instance
court action has been started to set
aside penny auction.
Sheriffs Aid Farmers
Sheriff Bruce Pratt of Wood
county attended the first penny
auction and prevented the crowd
from manhandling a loan company
representative, but made no move
to stop the sale
On the contrary, the sheriff
climbed aboard a wagon, and told
the 700 cheering farmers he him
self was ready to bid a few cents
for some of the goods and return
them to the debtor.
The sheriff of an adjoining coun-
ty refused mortgage holders re-
quest to call of a foreclosure sale
which attracted 5000 farmers. The
same creditor was unable to get
service on a replevin suit to re-
cover the goods before they were
sold.

products developed Tuesday as prob
able outgrowths Of the long-range,
corn-hog control program being draft

determined rate on corn used for
other than feed purposes would be
levied under the program discussed
Monday In conferences Of adlministra-
ton officials and producers represent

To protect hog products against
competitive disadvantages, the adj

under the farm act to levy COM

NAL and vegetable fats and oils sold
in competition with lard and certain
other hog products. The rate of COM
pensatory taxes would be SO fixed as
to preserve existing relationships Of
prices of meat types to consumers.
Neither cattle nor sheep are basic
products under the farm act and pro-
cessing taxes cannot be levied on them
except as compensatory levies to pre-
vent them from gaining a trade adj
vantage.

Credit for q fractional rise Of wheat
after an initial dip was chiefly given
to scattered buying and to absence Of
