RFC STUDIES
SMALL LOANS
TO RETAILERS
Experiment to Stimulate
Buying May Be Tried
in Southwest.
BY MAX STERN
Times Special Writer.

WASHINGTON, April 2o-A plan
to release immense sums in consum-
er and small merchant credit is be-
ing considered by the Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corporation, treasury
and other officials here.
offered by Sidney M. We'll of Al
buquerque, the plan would be tried
first in the southwest, particularly
in New Mexico and Arizona, and if
successful there extended to other
regions. Mr.. We'll has been at work
with Representative Dennis Chavez
of New Mexicon on details and
daily conferences have been held
in RFC departments for a fort
night.
Briefly the plan is designed to
expand credit at. its base, through
the retailer by making him loans
for the purpose of replenishing
merchandising stocks now down to
bed rock. Under the plan RFC
would furnish the major funds, aug
mented by capital provided by local
communities.
formed. These would raise capital
through sale Of common and pre-
ferred stock and purchase govern
ment securities Herewith, which,
upon being deposited with RFC,
would be expanded seven-fold
through advances from RFC. With
this new credit loans would be made
to merchants. The loans would be
repaid in sixteen monthly INSTALL
ments, beginning sixty days after
the date of the obligation. A revolv-
ing credit feature is included in the
plan, whereby merchants may re-
borrow for continuing merchandise
purchases.
According to Mr.. We'll, the lack
of consumer credit all over Amer
lea is traceable to the inability of
merchants to finance their mer-
chandise purchases by bank loans,
due, in turn, to restrictions as to
terms. This has damned the flow
Of normal credit, cut down employ
ment, created a threatening stag
nation.
Safeguards are provided under
the plan against misuse of the new
credit by INSCRIPTIONS operators
and for the repayment of old debts.
eve believe this plan will, if ap-
piled nationally, result in kind of
controlled initiation, a revival of
trade activity, increase employment
and produce a higher living stand
ard" said Mr.. We'll. In supplying
new working capital it will correct
depleted stocks, encourage broader
buying for cash and offer new credit
facilities at the customers usual
market, the retail merchant, the
normal distributor of credit"
Under the plan New Mexico mer-
chants would be provided with more
than $1.000000 and Arizona mer-
chants about 100000. The amount
to be raised locally would total $780,
900 in New Mexico and $375,000 i'll
Arizona. These amounts would be
revolved four times year.

B0EHNE LETTER
MAKES APPEAL.
FOR PWA FUNDS
Representative Points Out
That State Is Behind
on Quota.
By Times Special

By Times Special
WASHINGTON. April 2o.-De-
claring that Indiana has been
allotted only 81 per cent of its quota
Of federal public works funds
Representative John ". Boehne
Sixth District Democrat, has ap-
pealed in writing TO Secretary of
Interior Harold L. Ickes, the pub
lie works administrator, to relax the
rigid rule that has been applied to
Hoosier municipalities seeking
loans.
The government, Representative
Boehne said in his letter, has set
itself up as "a tougher creditor than
private corporations" The Evans
vile congressman called attention
to a recent experience Of the city
of Terre Haute, which, due to the
$50 state tax limit law, was I'M
able to sell its general obligation
bonds to PWA, but was able to float
a $45, 900 issue with a Chicago in
vestment house at a premium.
THE city of Huntington, Indiana,
desiring to issue revenue bonds for
extensions to an existing system,
has unqualified approval Of bond
counsel" wrote Mr.. Boehne. How
ever, I am informed this city is in
receipt of a contract from the gov
eminent requiring a test suit. which
if filed would probably require a
year in its final determination, and
therefore of no immediate value. TO
the recovery program. could men
ton other cities where the identical
conditions prevail"
The national recovery act, which
carried the three billion dollar pub
lie works appropriation, Mr.. Boehne
pointed out, contains a provision
which reads:
THE President, in his discretion,
and under such terms as he may
prescribe, may extend any Of the
benefits of this title to any state,
county, or municipality notwith-
standing any constitutional or legal
restriction or limitation on the right
or power of such state, county or
municipality to borrow or incur in
debtedness."
The letter concludes:
Il would like to see the admins
tration take the position:
Il. That general obligations of
Indiana be accepted whenever the
previous high caliber of the appli-
cant's credit standing represent
reasonable assurance of repayment.
%. That the unqualified opinion
of nationally recognized municipal
bond counsel on revenue bonds in
Indiana, whether based on statutory
authority, or implied inherent
power, be accepted when given suff1-
cient compliance with the qualif1-
cation of reasonable security
Il am laying this matter before
you as the administrator of the
public works administration, be-
cause of it's extreme Importance to
us as citizens of the state of In
diana. Will you be good enough to
give this matter your very serious
consideration"

for Oakland, Calf, on the last lap
of their 7,365-mile flight from BriSs

Before them lay 2,408 miles of the
Pacific Ocean, which with the bene-
fit of favorable weather they expected
to negotiate with greater ease than
the jumps from Brisbane to Suva
Fiji Islands. and from Suva to Homo
lulu. Weather predictions were IA
vorable.
To relieve the tedium of night fly
ing above the clouds, Sir Charles
bought a ukulele. Taylor didn't OBJ
ject to the instrument, but mildly
asked his companion not to sing.
Comdr. John Bayliss of the Coast
Guard Service gave them radio set
with which to receive beacon signals
to keep them on their course in case
they encounter fogs along the Cali
fornia coast.
If Oakland is reached safely, Sir
Charles will have backtracked the
route of his great flight of 1928 when
with three companions, he flew from
Oakland to Australia, blazing a new
trail over the Pacific.

ALBANY, N. Y, November 1.-The
Court of Appeals last night upheld the
lower courts in barring from the gen.

aspirants for State Office on the Re-

Ending a legal controversy insti-

justice required within the contempla-
ton Of the election law"
ITO order a new trial at this time

Prisoner Must be Seen.
Informed of Hauptmann's state
ment last night, in which the prisoner
broke his long voluntary silence, Wi
lentz pointed out that Whitney is not
Hauptmann's attorney, and it will be
necessary to see the prisoner himself
or have a representative question him
before making a decision.
With little more than eight weeks
remaining before Hauptmann goes on
trial January 2, the defense, headed
by James M. Fawcett, New York at
torney, and augmented by George K.

prosecutor, planned to establish head
quarters at once here and in Trenton.
State troopers disclosed that one
skirmish between prosecuting and de-
fense agencies already has occurred
centering about Millard Whited, Lam
bertville logger, who says he saw
Hauptmann near the Lindbergh home
before the kidnarIng.
Defense investigators obtained q
statement from Millard's brother, Ed
ward, that Millard's words were false
and that he could not have seen, much
less identified, Hauptmann.
The State troopers said they had
retaliated by obtaining a statement
from Edward that he "had had a bat
tle'' with Millard, and that he and his
brother were at odds.

The amount involved was not large,
but it strengthened the private beliefs
of Treasury powers that they may
have found a new Government bond
market. That may be an overly 0pti-
mistic view, but they have it.
Don't be surprised if they break
out some time soon with similar
issue of recovery bonds to finance at
least a portion of relief expenditures.
