TO ASK CONGRESS FOR HELP Senator Hitchcock Wants To Use $60,000,000 Profits Of Reserve Sys¬ tem For Farm Relief Washington.—The plight of farmers due to falling prices was taken to congress. Agricultural committees of the sen¬ ate and house in joint session began hearings on conditions brought about by falling prices preliminary to de¬ vising relief measures. They decid¬ ed to ask Secretary Houston and Gov¬ ernor Harding of the federal reservo board to come before them after Eu¬ gene Meyer, Jr., former head of the war finance corporation had declared that rehabilitation of that body would go a long step towards finishing the desired relief by financing exports of surplus crops. Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska told the conference he planned to intro¬ duce measures making available the profits of (he federal reserve banks, amounting to about sixty million dol lars for loans to agricultural inter¬ ests. The money which Senator Hitch cock would have advanced to the farmers is tlie governments’ share in profit of the federal reserve hanks payable next month and which, under (he law, would be used to increase gold reserves or amortize liberty bonds. Loans would be made through (he federal land bunks or chattel mort¬ gages or warehouse receipts with ag¬ ricultural products or live stock as security. Loans on grain would be limited to six months and those on live stock to one year. ‘This would be only a drop in the bucket toward meeting the enormous needs of agriculturists,” said Sena¬ tor Hitchcock, but it would have a good effect beyond the actual amount of money made available.” Governor Harding with whom the Nebraska senator conferred issued a statement saying that neither he nor the board had taken any stand on the proposition, He declared he had crit icised Senator Hitchcock’s plan, but that the matter was one not within the province of the hoard as it con¬ cerns the use of funds which the law required should be paid into the treas urv. Legislation extending a billion dol¬ lar credit to Germany was advocated before the joint committee by J. J. Brauer of New York, who claimed to represent the German government, while Sentaor Smoot of Utah an nounced he would propose an emiiar go on imports of wool for relief of American wool growers in a bill he will offer. Representative Campbell of Kansas suggested that profits of the grain corporation, about one hundred mil¬ lion dollars, be made available for loans to farmers. Troops are Ordered to Mines.
