THE FARMER'S
BANKRUPT NOTICES
Walter W. Head
By WALTER W. HEAD,
First Vice-President American Bank
ers Association
The farmer today is more than a
tiller of the soil. He is a business
man. liaising crops is only a part of
his business, if he is
a real up-to-date
Twentieth Century
farmer. Problems of
marketing, distribu
tion and financing
aro equally Impor
tant.
The complexity of
m our modern cco-
*" ■ mimic organization
makes ft necessary
for the furmer
understand and assist in solving
these problems if lie is to succeed.
In this now rolo—as a business mun
—tho farmer steadily has advanced
to a better position.
There was a timo when the farmer
was dependent wholly upon private
marketing agencies, whose interest
was not always Identical with his own,
whoso greed for profits sometimes out
matched consideration of the farmer’s
need. Today there are many great
co-operative marketing organizations
that handlo a large purt of the farm
er’s crop and win for him more liberal
treatment from tho private ngeneios
which still handle the bulk of his pro
duction.
Today the farmer also has his owu
co-operative agonclos of credit. If not
satisfied with the terms upon which
his local capitalist is willing to ad
vance money upon a land mortgage
tho farmer can go directly to the Fed
eral Land Bank, which, by reason of
tax-exemption and other advantages
incidental to its governmental char
acter, can loan money at a rock-bot
tom rale of interest.
In addition, tho federal government
has established another group of
hanks which permit tho local bankers
—by rediscount privileges—to extend
the farmer credit for his current oper
ations on a more favorable basis Ilian
over beforo. If he thinks hts local
bank is not sutllclontly responsive to
his noed, this same legislation enables
him to Join with other farmers In a
co-operative marketing association
and arrange for credit direct from the
government banks.
New Credit Facilities
For years it has been the farmer’s
complaint—with considerable justifica
tion—that ho, alone of all producers,
haB been forced to market his crop
on tho btiyor’s terms becauso of his
Inability to use Ills products, in stor
age, as a basis for credit. Today tho
agricultural credits act authorizes the
acceptance of warehouse receipts, on
non-perishable agricultural products,
as collateral for loans, the same as In
the case of sugar or other commodi
ties of commerce.
Those developments have relieved
the farmoi from what seemed to be
persecution by short-sighted, tlgh •
fisted, grasping grain dealers, land
lords and bankers—for there were
■ome bankers who were guilty of th s
very thing, who thought of the farm
er principally as a weak and Ignorant
opponent In a game whose only stake
was the collection of a high rate of
Interest Tho farmer’s suspicion of the
banker arose because of misunder
stand ing, because he judged bankers
as a class by the derelictions of a few.
Today, with these sources of govern
ment-controlled credit available at h’s
call, the farmer cannot charge or even
suspect that the bankers are conspir
ing to do him harm.
As the roa' farmer has taken advan
tage of these opportunities, he has
made himself a business man. Like
other successful business men, he Is
equipped with credit to finance h's
operations, he is able to make use of
labor-saving machinery, he is able to
barter with buyers of his products as
their equal.
COMPULSORY THRIFT
In Kansas a group of power and
telephone companies is trying a com
pulsory thrift plan, which afreets
about 1,200 employees and applies to
every member of tlio organization
from the president to the humblest
day laborer. The plan requires that
each shall save anil Invest monthly
at least 10 per cent of his income.
Every month each employee must
make a report to tho general office of
how much he has saved, and in what
ho has invested It. Tho investment
must be approved by a committee
competent to advise. Government se
curities, savings bank accounts, build
ing and loan slock, payment on a
home, even payments on furniture are
allowed. If debts have been incurred,
these must be listed and payments
may be arranged on them, but no
more are ‘o be assumed. The Idea is
to make tho employee live within his
means and also lay aside something
in a definite form.
Reports for the first nine months
show' that about 13 per cent of the
wages have been saved, no single em
ployee falling bu'ow 10 per cent. This
amounts to over $100,000. Failure to
report or to save brings dismissal, but
in only two instances among the l,2Gv
employees v.as such action needed.
Budget books are distributed and
their use explained as a helpful
method in establishing a working
scale of living that will allow tor
thrift.
