President Wilson is again urg ing congressmen to establish a rural credit svstein, and the agri cultural sections are demanding action. It is, of course, possible that illusory hopes nave been held out to the farmers of the low interest f - m - • rates to be secured under a rural credit organization. The fact that European farmers borrow money for three to four per cent in this way does not prove the same thing can be done here. In terest rates and labor have al ways been low abroad. The ma chinery for such an organization would cost more in this country of higher salaries, and the Ameri can investon gets a higher rate on his monev. Still t!.e American farmer is as sessed a too high rale for his bor rowings. Loaning companies make too much money. Their service as intermediary is neces s try to give the borrower security that the prosperity is duly exam ined and supervised. But many little companies are doing this business on too small a scale for an economical result. The i r charge for their service is too high. The average lender on farm mortgages probably gets about six per cent. If the business were standardized, supervised and con solidated, so that a farm loan would look as good as a railroad bond, the lender might be satis fied wilh five per cent. The bor rower would have to pay the in termediary service of the rural eredit organization, and it is not likely that he wtll pav less than six per cent.
