FARM LOAN BANK
CREATED TO MEET

HELD CONSTITUTIONAL
BY SUPREME COURT
Act Provides That Borrower*
Form Own Organization To
Deal Direct With Institution
—Funds May Be Had For
Most All Farmers’ Improve
ment Needs.
Now that Iho Federal Farm Loan
Act has been declared constitutional
bjr the United States Supreme Court.
Beotheaetcrn farmers ran begin to
look to this system of financing agri
cultural development, at one that will
greatly assist them in solving the fi
nancial problems that have been
brought sdrout by present economic
conditions and those necessarily aria
Ing from changes that have been forc
ed upon them In changing their meth
ods of forming from the one crop sys
tem to diversification and live rtoek
production.
During the war Federal farm loan
Bonds Ware difficult to sell in the
bond market because no one wanted
to invest in bonds of any nature ex
cept Government bonds which had
to be told to finance the war, but
while the Government was selling the
bonds to finance the war, it used
aoma of the money to buy many mil
lions of Federal Farm Loan Bonds to
help Ananct the farmer. About the
time the war came to a close the
Fedevnl Farm Loan Act was attacked
by farm mortgage companies, because
<n the fact that this lower rate of
interest on long timo loans end the
bends upon which the money was re
alised were long time loans and the
bonds upon which the money was re
alised were exempt from al! taxation.
The farm loan mortgage companies
dee la rod the act lo be uncoattitclion
al. hence it was up to the United
States Supreme Court to decide the
issue before the Federal Land Barks
could dispose of any more bond* lo
secure money to lomn to the 'armors,
to the matter is settled for all t<mc
to coma and the Federal Land Banka
iarnl Farm Loan Act eras
designed aa a credit system to meet
the financial requirements of the far
mer, just aa the Federal He-ervo Act
was passed to meet the financial te
quiretnents of short time credits for
the merchants. The fact that t.i* far
mer requires n great deal more to
“turn his stock,'' ao to speak, and
earn the profit to repay bis lean, tho
Federal Farm Loan system provides
an amortization feature which enables
him to take aa long as he pleases to
repay the loan and gradually extin
guishes the debt.
By reason of the fact that there
are a great many fanners In the
Southeast who have not clearly un
derstood the workings of the Pedernl
Farm Loan Art and the functions of
the federal Land Bank, it is the pur
pose of thia article to simply describe
it and give them the proper informa
tion aa to the requirements necessary
in organising National Farm loan
Associations and in making applica
