New Congress 10 Halt
Further RFC Growth,
Senator Taft Predicts
!, Sees Act to Make Agencies
Directly Accountable
/, To Legislative Brunch

By ths. Associated Press.
A move in the next session to
break up the spreading organiza-
ton OF the Reconstruction Finance
Corp. and make some OF its subsid-
taries separate agencies directly re-
Aponsible TO Congress was predicted
today by Senator Taft, Republican,
OF Ohio.
The RFC, largest Government
financial agency outside the Treas
nry. expects to renew a request for
IS 900 900 900 additional borrowing
authority which went untitled by the
Seventy-seventh Congress because
Of a controversy over the method
by which the Board of Economic
Warfare obtains funds from the
RFC.
Sees Decentralization Move.
Senator Taft told reporters that
when this question came up again
he had no doubt 4 move would be
made to take such agencies as the
BEW out OF the RIGS sphere,
clothe them with. statutory instead
OF executive order and require them
to obtain appropriations directly
from Congress.
Some of these organizations are
doing things Congress never dreamed
about when it first authorized the
establishment Of the RFC," Senator
Taft said. 81 think there ought to
be intermediate audits of the &C
counts and that each corporation
doing . separate line of business
ought to be accountable to Con-
gress."
Senator Danaher, Republican, Of
Connecticut said he favored estab-
fishing the BEW on statutory basis
no that 1t would finance its world
wide programs of developing. produc-
Ing and purchasing war materials
with direct appropriations from
Congress, instead of drawing the
funds from RIG through directives
authorized by an executive order.
Secretary of Commerce Jones told
the Senate Banking Committee
recently that the RFC was providing
funds for scores of war operations,
ranging from direct loans to the
British to financing salvage pro-
grams.
Mr.. Jones said the RFC was right

much in the position OF q hen with
big setting of eggs" adding that
there were q lot Of things which
required attention land If there is
nobody else to do it, we do It," Most
OF these came In the form of requests
from President Roosevelt which the
RIG fulfilled "as best we can in
any way 1t was possible to do 50.
Twenty three programs now be-
ing financed by the RFC or subsid-
larry organizations were listed by Mr..
Jones as likely to involve monetary
losses.
Mr. Jones said the RFC was over
committed on $4,000, 0O0, 900 bor-
rowing authority by about 81 $780,
000, 1000 and needed 5000, 900 900
more in order to carry on its work
for the next year.
