Kings power. Slowly but surely the
Parliament has taken over more
power since the Great Charter was
won.
The King can declare war but
only after the Prime Minister and
the Parliament determine" that he
shall do so. 1t is the same with the
various other powers which might
be listed as belonging to "the crown" !"
There was time when the Brit
ish King could say mo" to a law
passed by the House of Commons
and the House of Lords. That time
is now far gone. No British King
or Queen has tried to veto a law for
more than $50 years.
The House of Lords, made up OF
mobiles and bishops, used to have a
good deal of power. 1t could keep
the House of Commons from making
new laws.
The Prime Minister can call on
the King to create new peers in
other words to give titles of nobil-
ity to men who will become mem
bers of the House of Lords. The
King always does that when asked.
In 1911 Prime Minister Asquith
forced the House of Lords to agree
to limit its power to halt the pas
sage of new tax laws.
IF you do not agree to this" said
Asquith in substance, "I will cause
so many new Lords to be named
that they will control the House
Of Lords and will pass the measure. -"
The House of Lords did not wish
to have so many new members. So
it agreed to the law and gave up
the most important power it had
held.

Healthy Farm Debt
Situation Reported
By U. 5. Agency
TotoI Far Above Lost
War, but Holds at
Stable Levels
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Although the farm mortgage debt
is approximately so per cent great
er than at the start of the last war.
farmers have entered this war with
a comparatively healthy debt situ-
alton, the Farm Credit Administra-
ton reported today.
The agency cited a 3 per cent de-
crease in the total mortgage debt
since the beginning of the present
war period in 1889 In contrast to a
"a per cent increase from 1914 to
1917.
Also it said, that because of only
a slight change in the farm mort
gage interest bill in recent years,
the greatly expanded income Of 1941
and the prospective income of 1912
meant that the debt burden should
be substantially lower in the next
few years-"that is, a smaller por-
ton Of the farmers income will
have to go to his creditors than
formally"
The aggregate amount of farm
mortgage debt outstanding by all
types of lenders-private and pub
lic-was estimated by the F. c. A
in its annual report to Congress at
$1,000 100000 F. c. A. loans out
standing were listed at 50 ,993, ,13o,-

Secretary Morgenthau said last
night the Treasury's offering Of
81 500 ,0O0, 900 of Treasury certificates
of Indebtedness was very well re-
ceived."
He praised the thousands of secur-

exceptionally good job" in famil-
iarizing the investing public with the
details of the issue.
He added that it was possible that
the Treasury might In the future
use the same method Of introducing
other new types of securities.
The certificates, which bear u Of
l per cent interest and mature in
6h months, are type of Treasury
obligation which had not been sold
since 1894. The Treasury enlisted
the help of dealers and others,
therefore, to explain the issue to
potential investors.
While no figures were available,
preliminary reports were enough to
permit the Treasury to close the

business yesterday.

Drastic Conversion
Order Expected for
Textile Plants
Murchison Predicts
w. P. B. Action in
Next Two Weeks
BY the Associated Press.


CHARLOTTE, N. c.. April 7-Dr.
Claudius T. Murchison, president
of the Cotton Textile Institute, pre-
dicted here today that the War Pro-
duction Board would issue "a drastic
conversion" program for the textile
industry within the next two weeks.
Speaking to a meeting of carded
yarn manufacturer, MurchiSon said
that while this program probably
would not entail rationing to con-
sumers, it would almost certainly Sc
verely restrict the supply of goods
available for non-essential and
civilian uses.
If adequate quantities of fabrics
needed for military purposes are to
be produced, he said, many more
looms must be brought into this pro-
duction."
That means" he added, that the
mills which have been producing
other things have got to be con-
verted."
DR.. Murchison expressed concern
over the future supply OF cotton Tor
the industry.
I'VE will come to August l with
a 10000, ,e00-bale carryover, of which
100000 bales will be extremely low
grade" he said. "Of good cotton,
there will be only a normal carry
over and the burdensome surplus
we had several years ago will have
completely disappeared.
Also, I am worried over this
years crop. There will be short
ages of fertilizer, insecticides and
farm labor. The crop possibly will
be actually under domestic con-
sumption.
In 1943 we will be facing a very
real shortage of cotton"
