Analj/.ed Agricultural Itilirf I'roblnn in Manner Satisfactory to l^adrro of Furin Blor in (jinjjrcsn and Opomil Way for Krincdiul Legislation n? DAVID LAW liKNCK (CvvirlfAI. im ?' Tit* Washington, Feb. 2. ? Agricultural relief upon which Con gress has expressed itself so often and in so many varying formulas has been analyzed at last by the President's agri cultural commission in a manner satisfactory yttrmost of the ' leaders from farm states. "The prompt action on thC| part ot the commission," Sen ator Capper, chairman of the A farm bloc, said today, "ro % mows the farm problem as a riioot cause for an extra ses sion of Congress. Time is yet ample, this session, if there is a legislative willingness, to write all the enactments nec essary to put the suggested program into effect. "The - program gives maJon? em phasis to marketing. Ah the President earlier had said, the problem of the farm is not on the farm but in the market. The commission's report specifically recommends means to link up ex-i istlng co-operative marketing as sociations uf producers Into effec tive and smooth-working co-ordi nation that will bring them Into line with the paraphernalia of or derly distribution in other indus tries." . . Under the solution proposed, the general features of the Cap- 1 per- Will lams bill are embodied whereby a Federal mark* ting j board Is created to encourage the "organization of co-operative mar keting associations, co-operative ; clearing house associations and i terminal market associations han dling agricultural products. "Such a plan." continued Mr. Capper, "does not Involve Govern?, ment purchase and re-sale of farm products nor price fixing by leg islative fiat. Thus It offers no ar tificial stimulant to over-produc- J W tion It takes into collider* tlon 9 that "the main flow of agricultural product* i? from areas of heavy production anil sparse population , to areas of relatively ilRht r duct Ion and d. n?e population. These more often than not are widely separated. In many farm commodities seasonable !>?*"? tlon mtlst be conserved for later consumption. In all farm eommo dltles there is need that available supplies be adjusted to the de mand. The plan proposed to meet these needs by means of adjust-] ments that will Involve less waste.; less loss and less lost motion and , In so doing reduce the price j spread between consumer and producer." . , . Perhaps the most striking phase, of the second report issued by , the commission la that which re lates to agricultural credit and banking. The difficulties of agri culture and the difficulties of, banking Institutions iu the agri cultural districts are laid to "common causes." The commis sion makes this pertinent com ment: , 1 "The banking problem' so far as agriculture Is concerned can not be approached from an exclu sively Federal point of view. The , national banking system and the Federal Reserve system leaves! outside of those systems under state supervision and control and. operating Independently approxi mately tworthlrds of the banks In | this country." This Is something with which previous reports from experts <1iave dealt but with no resultant action. Of the 30.000 banks In the I nlted States only one-fourth are national and tbu remainder , are state banks. 6f the state j banks 10,000 arn ineligible but 11.000 are eligible. Of this lat ter number only 1,660 are mem hers. Tho commission says this rc suits In "a divided system or banking with consequent weak- j - noss to tho nation's credit struc- , ture." Certain state banking laws i stand In the way of curing some of the difficulties and this csn only be reached by a campaign of education. "It is apparent that the coun try lacks a unified oredlt system." , says the commission, "and that | ouch a system can only be devel- ; oped by a Federal banking policy which will draw eligible non members Into membership in a unified national banking system There are, of course, some > amendments to the present Feder- j si Reserve Act which may make j It moro attractive to state banks to enter the Ferisral Reserve Sys tem. The state banks hesitate to Join because In most cases the conflict between the latitude Riv en by the states la too convenient , to some of the state banks to be' Klven up for regulation by the j Federal Government. The com i mission, like th?l .Federal Govern- j ment. can only hops for the up-| building of a public sentiment In , agricultural regions so that state I Iftnks will see the advantages of coming under the Federal wing. The state banks have many friends In Congrasa and of eours* they ean not be reached under \ < dmsManak^ai MEKKINS TAKKS VV OFFICIAL DUTIES Raleigh. Feb. n.~The ap pointment of II. W.

The truth of the matter Is that ! thiK controversy has caused mofls Ill-feeling between the two ser I vice* than at any time in tlMifP history. Army and Navy are ??jfei posed to co-operate In time of j I tlonal peril. Apparently in the piping days of peace they are i posed to keep the lamp of coahftj burning by laying at each other hummer and tongs. Air officers of the Army cleiat they are belhg hampered in thtjt ] efforts to pormote their sen . and that the real worth of the 1 Ing corps is being hidden at ? behest of officials of the wAr^ partment.
