Jesse Jones, chairman of the r..
F. c., after talk with the President
announced this decision and said that
very little. if any, additional funds
would be needed.
Loans are being repaid fast enough,
he explained. to meet demands for
new borrowings. In fact, Jones ex-
pressed little concern at the rapidity
Of the repaymentS.
