F Waahl ft03, D.iC.. Mar 5 Editor. Daily New i. . Washington N. 0. * Dear tir: Knowing the Intermit which the people of Beauto?t county have been taking ?4n the rural credits hill, I am sendlug you for jpubltcatlon a t a temen t by Senator F. M. 81m on the matter, ?%lch I am anre will he appreciated b>j your readers, nineerely your? r~ JOSEPH r. TAYLOE. Senator Simmons' Haifint-m. The rural credits hill which- this week passed the Senata by a vote :f 58 to 5 la a great plefe of construc tivo legislation. It Mfablished 12 banka located In different parts of the country Jnat as tlfa Federal Re serve Act establishes twelve banks. Under the provisions of this bill the farmer will be eisbled to bor row money upon hlsf land for the purpoae of permanentlTurprovementa. also for the purpose of stocking and equipping It upon lon(| time at a low rate of interest. It lis calculated that aix per cent wllljpay the inter eat and set aside a Vofliclent mor tallzatlon fund to liquidate the en tire loan within 36 yqars. The Gov ernment sets apart 9560,000 for each bank so as to make them growing institutions and to supply the money, ncconary to make loans until addi tional fundi can be secured through the sale of bonds. The bonds auth orised will be secured by land mort g-iSeu and the Joint '.lability of all the farm land banks. It Is thought t La: with this security the bonds can be placed at a very low rate of In terest. The bill exempts all mort rages arc! bonds Issued under this system from tayatlon. This is done in the Interest of a low rate of In terest. I hare no doubt the bill will be speedily passed by the House of Representatives and will shortly bo come a law and that Its beneflclent effects upon the agricultural inter ests of the country will be Immediate and far reaching. The good roads bill, appropriat ing $75.000,000 to aid the States and communities In the construction' of Improved highways was Imme diately upon the passage of the ru ral credits bill made the unfinished business of the Senste. The proba bilities are that within the next few days this bill wl!l pass the Senate by a decisive majority. These two measures will consti tute the two best pieces of construct tlve legislation In the Interest of the farmer ever passed In this country. jfrench Troops Arc Driven Back (By United Presa) ?
