EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES BEING
FORMED TO INVESTIGATE AP
PLICATIONS FOR LOANS
Director Meyer Telis How Change in
Cottonn Demand Has Encouraged
Entire Country
Washington.—Preparations for ag.
vancing upwards of a billion dollars in
agricultural and livestock credits un
der recent legislation have virtually
been completed by the war finance
corporation, officials said recently. The
corperation probably will be ready
within a short time to function under
its enlarged powers designed to afford
needed credit relief to.the farmers it
was said.
To expedite the advances executive
committees are being formed in agri
cultural and stock raising sections of
the west and south and will attend to
preliminary details of applications,
making the mnecessary investigations
and determining the adequacy of se
curities offered. Ten or fifteen such
committees are being formed now and
others will be added as the amount of
business in the different localities war
rants,
The corporation’s policy for finan
cing advances, officials asserted, has
not yet been definitely decided, but it
is believed that little of the $400,000,
000 balance with the treasury will be
used for agricultural credits. Demands l
may be made on the treasury to make
the first loans officials declared, but
as soon as the volume of needed cred.
its can be gauged, it is believed the cor
poration_will begin issuing its own
bonds. Current operatons of the cor
poration in financing exports are being
carried on almost exclusively out of a
revolving fund automatically establish
ed by the repayments being made on
the approximately $100,000,000 in ad
vances now outstanding.
Blames Prohibition For Unemployment
New Orleans, La.—Too drastic pro
hibition and the housing situatiqp are
to clame for much of the unemploy
ment throughout the country, Congress
man James O’Connor, orator of the
occasion, declared at the recent local
Labor day observance. ‘“The prohibit
jon law should be modified,” said Rep
resenfative O’Connor. “Thousands
were shut out of employment by the
passage of the Volstead Act, and its
modification’ would do much to im
prove labor conditions.” Mr. O'Cennor
decried the idea that he had been
“taken for a prohibitionist” because he
had not loudly inveighed on behalf of
the saloon interests.”
Plan Investigation Of Liquor Permits
Washington.—lnvestigation of all out
standing liquor permits is to be begun
ghortly and many cancellations may
follow, prohibition enforcement offi
cials said recently. Some time will be
required, officials declared, to subject
to close scrutiny the thousands of per
mits authorizing the withdrawal and
sale of intoxicating beverages, but it
is the intention of dry authorities to
comb out all but bona fide users of the
certificates.
