THE Mississippi Bankers Associa-

keep farmers of our state in a sound
financial position. We are urging
our customers to limit their farm
indebtedness to an amount which
can be paid from normal farm in
comes, figured from the long term
average prices of farm products.
We recognize the unusual character
of farm income and the farm land
price situation at the present time,
and as bankers we are pledged to
discourage borrowing to speculate
on farm land or borrowing to buy
land at high prices which are not
justified by long term income pros

Deliberate 10th Congress did

one surveys the record, it is ap-

made some unusual history. Con-

America to a much more effective

Congress demonstrated that it is
not willing to allow our foreign
policy to ride the winds of for
