PAGE EIGHT BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE PRO-FARMER LEGISLATION IN MOTION Urgent Farm- ers’ Relief Measure Senate Passes EXTENSION OF CREDITS Upon Security of Farm Pro- ducts Provided for Washington, Dec. if.—The sénate late yesterday passed the agriculture , committee resolution directing revival , of the war finance corporation as a | measure of affording relief to farm- ers. The second section of the resolu | tion, which as introduced would have ! directed extension of liberal credits | to farmers by the federal reserve | system, was amended to make the de- sirability of such a course only an expression of opinion of the congress. The amendment making the change in the section of the resolution ‘re- lating to the federal reserve system was proposed by Senator Norris, Re- publican, Nebraska, and was accepted | 47 to 16. Another change made in the resolu- tion broadened the duties of the't nancing of exportation of products other than those produced on the farm. Amendments to make the rate of discount on loans to farmers five per cent, and to make cotton fac- were rejected: A’ substitute for the | resolution presented Ly Senator Spen- cer, Republican, Missouri, met a sitn- | ilar fate. Final ‘action ‘on the. resolution was without a record vote. The measure now goes to the house where a num- ber of similar farmer relief meas- ures are pending. The selection of the resolution di- recting revival of the war finance cor- poration, as adopted, reads: “The secretary of the treasury and members of the war finance corpora, tion are hereby directed to> revive the activities of the war finance cor | poration, and that said corporation be at once rehabilitated with the view of assisting in the financing of the exportation of agricultural an@ other products to foreign markets, The resolution refers to the ex? tension of credits as follows: “It is the opinion of congress that the federal reserve board should take such action as may be necessary to permit member banks of the fed- eral reserve system to grant liberai extensions of credit to the farmers upon the security of agricultural products now held by them, by per. mitting the rediscounting of such notes of extension at a fair and reasonable rate of interest.” The senate agriculture committee today continued its hearings with a view to framing other measures looir- ing to the relief of the farmers from conditions resulting from falling prices, i WESTERN UNION ASKS COURT /TO | HALT SECRETARY Washington, ‘Dec. 14- ~The Western Union Telegraph company brought suit in the District of Columbia sv- preme court for an injunction restrain- ing the secretaries of war, state and navy from inte! 26 With the com- pany’s connection with new cable lines from Barbardoes, where it’ con-. nects with a British cable to South America.

Last Night’s Dreams —What They Mean T IS not an uncommon experience to find ourselves in a dream city. Perhaps It is one which we recognize though it may be changed by the dream phéntasmagoria ; familar build: ings may take on a strange aspect, or strange city buildings appear in un- expected places. Sometimes we rec- ognize it as a elty we have always and sometimes it appexrs to be one of which we never have even heard. Not Infrequently a name for the place is suggested’ in our dream—a name which we are sure is new to us. It is a cheap way to travel and, the travel to the cities of dreams ts ac- counted a most favorable omen and means riches ahead. Unless indeed the city “be on fire; then take care of | your finances or poverty will overtake you. It is generally agreed that if your elty of dreams is.a) strange one to you, and you are lost in it, you will shortly change your. residence with, as a ruie, favorable results to your business. - All ‘scientists do ‘not agree with Freud that every dream is the fulfill- ment of a wish, but It !s easy enough to fit this dream into Its category. An analysis ‘of our dream will generally enable us to discover the origin of the strange name propounded by our dream—consciousness for the strange city in which we may find ourselves. Thus Fretnd dreams of belng at a strange place called Flelsa and one further on named Hearsing.’ Feiss was the name of a friend.
