MOVES TO SPEED
LOANS ON FARMS
Morgenthau Calls for Greater
Libera|ity in Apprais-
ing Land.

BY the Associated Press.
Gov. Henry Morgenthau Of the Farm
Credit Administration today called for
greater liberality in appraising farm
lands, in a message to officers and en-
ployes of the II Federal Land Banks
starting a movement to speed farm
mortgage refinancing
Handling of loans must be accelerated
Immediately, he said, to keep pace with
applications from farmers arriving at
the rate of 1900 and more week.
Counting s150,000,000 made available
by the Reconstruction Corporation,
Morgenthau's administration will have
$400000.000 for loans on farms during
the next six months He believes this
will be adequate although there are
now approximately $80000000 900 in ap-
plications for loans pending.
Morgenthau Is attempting to "cut
down and out the amount of red tape" "
saying that when he assumed office in
March the average period required for
making farm MORTGAGE loan through
the land banks was about eight months
and this has been cut to from three
to six months. His goal is to bring the
period down to from two to three weeks
AS for appraisals, Morgenthau had
this to saw:
appraised value is to be normal
value. In defining this word we have
said distress sales in these recent bad
years do not fix normal value and
neither do high sale prices of boom
years.
''The agricultural adjustment act in
dicates that the wears 1909 to 1914, in
elusive. were wears Of normal price re-
lations. as between farm CROPS and
consumers foods. So we have been
using farm commoditv prices of 19n9-l4
as DrinciDal p,lide in determining
normal value of farms
Both land banks and rational farm
loan associations are required "to make
sound loans. b"t they need not exact
exc Xcassive securitv.'
Morgenthau added the act does not
instruct the banks to make loans to
open IN new areas to the p,ow or to
esf"bllsh more neople on FERNS.
He has NJ immediate plans for is
suing for public sale anv bonds OF I'm
to s2000.000000 in these securities
which tho MORTGAGE act authorized
He indicated there was no prospect
these would be issued during the next
SIX months. except small amounts
which would be given the Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corporation as collateral
for its advance.

WASHINGTON, Jan. %. (UP)
"A discrepancy between two Re-
construction Finance Corporation
reports on the $90,000,000 loan
to the Central Republic Bank &
Trust company, Of Chicago, was
reported out on the senate floor
yesterday by Senator CouZens,
Republican, Michigan.
He is chairman of a committee
named last session to investigate
R.F.C. advances. The Chicago
bank is headed by Charles G..
Dawes, former president of the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton.
CouzenS said there was a diff
ference between the report made
to his committee on the loan and
the report submitted yesterday to
the clerk of the house. He said
that on July Is the REC. report
ed to this committee that $780,
100000 authorization had been to
the Central Republic Bank &,
Trust company, but that only
$40,00O,000 had been disbursed.
The net Indebtedness reported by
the corporation, after repayment
of $3,1S5,71S was $36,S04,280
COuZenS said.
"The report to the house shows
a divergence" he continued, add
ing that it represented the trans
action to have begun with dis
bursement of $9O,000,000.
"Of this sum the house was in
formed that $23,576,23S had been
repaid. leaving a net Indebtedness
of $66,422,76
Later the REC. told Couzens
that when he inspected the books
July IS only $40, 100000 had been
advanced but that later advances
brought the total to $90,000,000.
Couzens said the REC. had in
formed him it had S120,000,000
in collateral to secure the loan.
Senator Blaine, Republican, Wis
consin, asked if the collateral
embraced a large quantity of In
sull securities"
CouzenS said he did not know.
The Michigan senator offered a
resolution to forbid further R.F.
C. loans to railroads without con-
sent of congress. 1t was referred
to the banking and currency COM
mittee. A subcommittee will be-
gin hearings next week, he said.
Senator Copeland, Dem, n. Y,
asked Couzens if he thought the
Interstate Commerce Commission
had been coerced into giving ap-
prevail to railroad loans.
Couzens replied he was unable
TO say about coercion" but that
he thought inflence had been
brought to bear. He declared
there would be no need of further
loans to railroads if the pending
bankruptcy legislation is passed.
