Observations From
Washington
BY Congressman Harold Knutso
Fears Effect of Low Rates

Fears Effect of Low Rates
AS this is being written the Ag-
ricultural Committee Of the House
is holding hearings on bills intro
duced, mine among the number, to
reduce the interest rate on Com
missioner loans to 3h per cent,
and to make permanent that rate
to both federal land bank and
Commissioner nans. On Friday
last Governor Meyers Of the Farm
Credit Administration in testifying
before the committee issued a
warning that artificially low inter-
est rates might result in a land
boom which may have a far
reaching and undesirable effect on
the whole structure OF land values
in the United States" Governor
Meyers, who I'LL 6oubtedly reflects
the Administrators position. pro-
poses an early return to Az per
cent interest rate on federal land
bank loans rather than to continue
for two more years the emergency
interest rate of 3h per cent which
expires on July 1. I cannot quite
understand Mr.. Meyers position.
Even under the present rate OF 3h
per cent thousands Of farms are be-
ing foreclosed by the government
Does it not follow that II the rate
Is put back to az per cent the
number Of foreclosures will great
ly increase and will not that fur

Of 6,812.000 farmers in the United
States" Mr.. Meyers stated, "only
639, 1926, or less than ten per cent,
were land bank borrowers. OF that
number only 14.9 per cent Of farm
borrowers, or less than Is per cent
Of all farms were delinquent" he
added.
If Mr.. Meyers represents the
Presidents views we might just a.
well give up any idea Of securing
legislation from this Congress to
lower interest ra,es. I am not TAX

for less than 3 per cent. In fact
practically all the wartime bonds

and three percent.

CUT IN ARMS NOW
HELD |NADV|SAbLE
Davis to Discuss Peace, but
Denies Plan to Call
Conference.
Bs the Associated Press.

LONDON, April Norman H.
Davis, Americas ambassador at large
said last night he will discuss world
economic and peace cooperation with
British statesmen, but that the time
is not yet ripe for an international
disarmament conference.
Tension created by the Spanish civil
war and widespread suspicion in the
European mind made disarmament
impracticable now, he asserted.
His disavowal OF any United States
intention to propose an armament
conference now, coincided with that
Of Secretary OF State Hull in Wash
ington
And it came, too, after general re-
action in European capitals against
such a conference at this time, step
ping up Of Franco-British aerial arm
aments and new efforts by those two
nations to settle the question Of for
eign volunteers in Spain.
An apparent softening Of the Italo-
German attitude inspired France and
Britain to urge again that non-Span-
ish fighters be withdrawn from the
Spanish civil war.
Attitude Of France
A French foreign Office spokesman
avowed that the government sis more
optimistic that the Spanish war will
not entangle Europe than at any
firpo sipce thu uyor heoopp
An effective neutrality control
scheme will be in operation within 10
days, both French and British sources
predicted Some observers thought the
new effort to get foreign fighters out
of Spain was inspired by reports Of
dissension and revolt against Italians
fighting in the insurgent army.
Demonstrations against the insur-
gent regime were reported today from
Valladolid and Algeciras, and reports
still persisted that there was serious
reaction against Gen. Francisco
Franco in Spanish Morocco, where he
staged the beginning of his fight to
overthrow the Spanish republic.
Some French oflcials anticipated
withdrawal Of foreigners in Spain, but
felt Italians in the insurgent army
might attempt one more offensive
before agreeing to go back home.
Sees Tension Eased.
Davis noted a slight relaxation in
the Spanish tension and added his
view that the civil war had "a sobering
influence" on all Europe
Here for the International Sugar
Conference opening Monday, Davis
said he intended to discuss all matters
pertaining to key points in American
foreign policy: Economic cooperation,
peace, disarmament
He reiterated that the most i'm
portant Of these was economics and
stressed the need for worldwide re-
duction of trade barriers as a stepping
stone toward any future armament
restrictions.
British onlookers were quick to pro.
claim that, whatever the eventual
desire Of the United States in world
affairs there would be no dramatic
move OF any kind" during Davis stay
here.
