Federal Reserve Asks
Senate 10 Give Banks
Some RFC Functions

A Senate Economic Subcommit-
tee had before it today a proposal
from the head of the Federal Re-
serve System that the Federal
Reserve banks, using only their
own funds. take over part of the
lending activities now handled
out of taxpayer funds by the
RFC.
Chairman Thomas B. McCabe
'of the Federal Reserve Board
recommended that the Federal
Reserve System, cooperating with
private banks, be authorized to
lend up to $500, 200, 900 to business
firms, especially small business.
The suggestion was contained
in a 145-page answer to a ques-
tionnaire sent out by the subcom-
mittee in preparation for public
hearings to start Wednesday on
the credit and fiscal policies OF
the Government generally. The
subcommittee is headed by Sen
ator Douglas. Democrat, of Illi-
nois, an economist.
Limit to RFC Loans Asked.
Mr.. McCabe said there is room
for business lending by both the
Reserve banks and the RFC. pro-
vided the RFC confined itself to
cases mot suitable for Reserve
Bank or private bank aid.
Examples" he said. ARE to be
found in the financing of rail-
roads. air carriers and large public
projects, and in the loans made
by the corporation (RFC) for
disaster relief.
aside from loans of this type,
the corporations principal OBJ
jective should be to provide needed
financial assistance to small bus
inesses in those exceptional CIR
cumstances in which regular
credit facilities, including those
Of the Reserve banks. are made
quate."
His proposal comes at q time
when RF'C lending policies are
under IRE from Senators Full
bright, Democrat. Of Arkansas,
and Capehart, Republican, Of In
diana, growing out Of loans to
Henry ]. Kaiser. automobile man
ufacturer.
10 Per Cent Private Participation
Unlike the RFC. the reserve
banks would not 60 In for lend
ing by themselves but would take
part In credits given by private
banks to business enterprises
notably to aid small business In
time of need"
Private banks would have tc
put up at least 10 per cent Of the
total loan. They would be al
lowed by the reserve banks. fur
thermore, to take over any part
or all the rest at any time they
wanted during the life Of the
loan.
Mr.. McCabe also advised Con-
gress that the currency Of the
United States Is "the most gen.
orally acceptable" in the world
and should not be tinkered with
He opposed circulation Of gold
coins. which has been forbidden
since 1884, or any change in the
$35-an-ounce price OF gold.

These entertaining fantasies made him hun

a short time he was joined by the intense
scarlet four-in-hand who ate in quick snaps,
his bespectacled nose still buried in his book.
Not long after, the jovial blue bow appeared.

beer with his lunch. Trant was toying with
Diplomat Pudding when the Byzantine beard
chose table opposite him. After ordering,
he tucked his napkin under the beard and,
to Trant's satisfaction, revealed glimpse of
most objectionable lavender foulard.
SCARLET" mused Trant. SNUG in the secur-
ity OF his own chaste black. "yellow-spotted
blue, lavender - chartreuse with pink
mermaid. Every law of aesthetics outraged"
He paid his check and returned to the Pull
man. As he resumed his seat he noticed that
his cross-aisle enemy, alone now in the car,
seemed sound asleep with the "Holyoke
Guardian" spread like tablecloth over his
face.
Then suddenly the train swerved around
bend and the dislodged ''Holyoke Guardian
slid from the sleeper's face and tapped to the
floor.
Astonished at what it revealed, Trant
jumped up and sprang across the aisle
His neighbors bald head lolled grotesquely
against the window pane. The mouth gaped:
the blue eyes glared in an unseeing stare The
mermaid necktie, twisted to the left, had been
pulled viciously tight into the loose folds of
the mans neck
'Wellw exclaimed Trant.
And, as he felt for the pulse, he realized
two facts The left-hand blue eye which had
surveyed him so sternly was obviously of
glass and the owner of the glass eye was
obviously dead.

but professional fascination, by scarlet

Cautiously he surveyed the scene. His own.

pressed buzzer brought Pullman porter
whom Trant sent for the conductor. With
flourish OF credentials, he quickly ordered him
to wire ahead to the Springfield police and to
send in from the diner his three fellow passen-
gers. After final instructions to put two
porters on guard at the cars exit. he searched
the Pullman vigorously.
He did not find what he was looking for
and. in not finding it. realized rather dis
appointedly that the case was solved almost
before it had begun.
As the train clattered toward Springfield,
the scarlet four-in-hand. the blue bow and
the beard-hidden lavender foulard sat to-
gether in shocked uneasiness in the section
nearest the wash room. Trant, blocking the
aisle. looked down at them soberly. He held
the copy of Thought Trends"
HIS, gentlemen, is the last car. Since
was next door in the diner. l know no one
passed me to come in here and only you three
came out" His gray eyes moved from one
face to the other and settled on the jovial
blue bow. Did you, sir, 60 into the wash
room before you went to lunch?"
The blue bow gave sickly version of the
Babbitt smile. "As matter of fact, did
to wash up."
"As thought" murmured Trant as if to
himself. while the blue bow was in the
wash room and the lavender foulard was
asleep, the scarlet four-in-hand could have
strangled the mermaid and arranged the
newspaper over the face to simulate sleep.
While the scarlet four-in-hand was in the
diner and the foulard asleep, the blue bow
could have done the same. While the scarlet
fon-in-hand and the blue bow were in the
diner. the lavender foulard ;" He broke
off. Yes. gentlemen. only one of you could
have done it and each of you had an oppor-

Looking further at the problems
Of education in an Atomic age,
M. Hendrix made reference to
he tremendous inequalities that
exist in education between states
and school districts of the nation.
Actually circumstances are that
New York has the resources to
support good schools, whereas
Mississippi, with more children to
educate, has less taxable resourc-
and girls" said the speaker. "At
the same time Mississippi is ex-
pected, and must, share its part Of
the National burden in the time Of
war and in the time of peace.
las a result, when war comes,
Mississippi and many other states,
some Of these in regions outside
Of the South, are unable, because
Of low educational standards, %
supply their fair share of military
manpower. Thus, we have, as
was the case in the last war,
twelve Of the more wealthy states
having to exceed their manpower
quotes, because twelve so-cal1ed
poor states were unable to meet
their quotos.
There is way out. The NEA
and many national organizations
feel that federal assistance to the
needy states and school districts
would aid these political entities
to improve their public grade anc
high school programs. Such legis-
lat1ve proposals are currently be-
fore the Congress and should b
acted upon once the Congress i:

Hendrix.
