The Farm Credit Set-Up Whings have been moving so fast fm the way of agricultural finance and other governmental efforts that many government workers themselves, mot to mention the general public, Jack a complete grasp of all the ac- tivities which have been inaugurated in recent months and now are getting into full swing. ‘Typical of this situation is the farm €redit set-up, not at all complicated when viewed in the whole, but hard to assimilate on a plece-meal basis. It is the accumulation of many years ‘and numerous ideas, rather than an; their own separate corporations in private session. ‘These men, in the seventh land bank district, have their offices at St. Paul. Leo T. Crowley is the gen- eral agent and executive supervisor of the four separate organizations, Roy A. Nelson heads the Land Bank, George M. Suzens the Production Credit corporation, F. H. Klawon the, Intermediate Credit bank, and Hutzel ‘Metzger the Bank for Cooperatives. Whatever the farm credit organiza- tion is doing in this district comes under the supervision of one of these men. 2 Any farmet who is interested in any of these activities can find out from them what he can do to benefit himself—if anything. Reports, both from the offices of these organizations and from farm- ers who are closing deals with them, indicate that they are stepping along in high gear right now and that their activities are no small factor in re- turning cheer to the farm country. Another Low Graft ‘No matter how worthy the cause, or how high its aims, always there is someone who would turn it to his benefit for ill-gotten gains, ‘The Public Works Administration is dispensing millions of dollars to fi- nance projects in all parts of the na- tion, giving employment to thousands. One naturally would think that all classes of citizens would unite back of such endeavor, unselfishly and wholeheartedly. But no! Back of the scenes, even here, the slimy head of the racketcer is upraised. “The easiest money in Washington is being collected today by lawyers, agents, lobbyists and politicians, sup- posed to have influence with the Pub- lic Works Administration,” says Sec- retary of Interior Harold L, Ickes, entirely new development, and so the people in charge found it necessary to acquaint their own workers with its history, background, purposes and principles. This they have done in the current $ssue of the Farm Credit Messenger, ® publication devised to acquaint the members of a far-flung organization ‘with what the other fellow is doing ‘and also to convey information to the public. This authority says the set-up be- gins at Washington with the Farm Credit Administration Governor, now ‘William 1. Myers, who has three deputy governors and a general coun- sellor to assist him. ‘The administration itself is di- vided into four divisions, each in charge of @ commissioner. First of these is the Land Bank Division, which operates the land bank sys- tem, created in 1916. Its purpose is to loan money to farmers on first mortgages on land. Next comes the Intermediate Cred- it Division, established in 1923. Its job is to extend credit to banks and agricultural credit corporations by discounting notes and mortgages given for periods from three months to three years, A new member of the system is the Production Credit Division, devised to supply farmers with short-term @redit to aid them in production of erops. Fourth member of the quartet is he Cooperative Credit Commissioner, ‘who supplies credit to cooperatives. ‘These latter two agencies are new, having been created by the last con- gress, ‘The production credit.division op- erates through Production Credit as- sociations, which it finances by pro- viding the original capital These are formed by prospective borrowers or persons eligible to borrow. Chattels @re acceptable security, including crop mortgages. The local associa- tion takes the notes of borrowers and can rediscount them at the Interme- @iate Credit bank. Thus one branch of the system quickly finds it nec- essary to make use of the other. The Intermediate Credit bank finances its Operations by selling debentures to the investing public for short periods. (hese debentures are regarded as Mquid security and draw low rates of {nterest, the rate in this seventh or porthwest district just now being two per cent. The Intermediate Credit bank adds (ene per cent for expenses and loans the money to the local association at three per cent. The latter are lim- to a boost of three per cent to who administers this fund, “They collect large sums as retainers and fees, on the claim that they can get favorable consideration for munici- Pal and state projects. “Such influence does not exist. Gullible applicants merely are swin- dled out of their money.” And, Mr. Ickes adds, persons employing such “fixers” are likely to cast suspicion on thelr projects, which otherwise) wHO NEEDS SKIN OIL, FACE might win favorable consideration.

German Liberties (Chicago Tribune) The Nazi reich under Hitler has Suppressed the constitution, dissolved Parties, coerced and regimented the electorate, made the press a subser- vient organ of governmental promo- tion, and is now af grips with the Catholic and the Protestant Evan. gelical churches to force the accept- Nazi control. Success has been com- moderation than it displayed in deal-| determination seems to be to force compliance, If the movement against the churches is successful every form of , literty in Germany will have been ex- | tinguished and Hitler will have erected that new state structure known in| modern governmental cant as total-| itaritan. The success of dictatorship in sev- eral great countries is sometimes as- | cribed, and rightfully, to the fact that | the peoples involved had no aptitude for or experience in self-government. | That is true in a number of con-| vulsed countries where liberties have been lost or where disorders prevail, | but the German people have furnished the origins of some of the enduring free political institutions of the world. The history of their development is not consistent in Germany, but Ger- man people transplanted to England the seeds of many free institutions now prevailing there and in the United States. These Germanic ideas prevailed Over the feudalism of the Norman conquest in the end, and they were 60 much a basis of American philos- ophy underlying the American forms of liberty that Jefferson wanted the figures of the Anglo-Saxon chieftans Horsa and Hensa on the American seal. From the Germanic England got a folk law which sur-, vived as common law against a re- vival of Roman law. It got the prin ciple of local self-government, a rudi- mentary idea of representative gov- ernment, and the idea of elected chiefs as against heredity. Liberties had their early Germanic origins, and the disappearance of present day Ger- man freedom under a dictatorship more repressive than that of constitu- tional monarchy is not a phenomenon that can be explained on grounds of national incompetence. In misplaced enthusiasms or in despair the German People have succumbed to a force which might have been resisted if it had not been permitted to gain so much momentum and such a ritual- istic gppeal to the emotions of the enthusiasts, The experiences of other peoples may not be admonitory ‘to countries where freedom still persists but the fate of Germany is not without its creted by the sebaceous glands of the skin.

The NewDeal = Washington Big Bankers Look at a Big Stick and Tremble ... The G. O. P. Dunce Cap Goes to Jimmy Rolph ... Ickes And Tugwell Fail to Hitch on Land Policy . . . Spoils? It Depends on Who Dishes ’Em. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent} Washington, Dec. 6.—The big bank- ers are staring at a big stick. The stick is being wiggled signifi- cantly, though not exactly brandished at them, as many continue refusal to sell preferred stock to the RFC. A federal bank which would throw this government right into the bank- ing business is the threat. Such a bank, under plans suggested, but care- fully uannnounced, would supply commercial banking to large areas ww without banking facilities and as- branch agencies to those in which RFC held preferred stock. The preferred stock idea originally was launched to provide cash for banks which might need help to qualify for deposit insurance. Big New York and other banks were asked to buy, so no bank selling preferred stock would get a black eye—a pro- posal which, according to whispers from the inside, squared perfectly with the administrator's desire to get some kind of a grip on big banks and their operations with “other people’s money.” Big bankers — among them Andy Mellon—balked, because RFC regula- tions. threatened their independence and imposed stringent conditions on common stock dividends. Now they must worry about competition from the government and banks having the prestige of government affiliation. Some well-informed folk regard the triend. Lynchings in the Democratic south helped. No other factor so can stir up the race to resentment. Comes Rolph, a Republican, to en- dorse lynching as no Democratic gov- ernor ever thought of doing. And many Republican leaders virtually shrieked in anguish the next day as Ritchie of Maryland, a Democrat, sent state troops to arrest suspects in a Negro lynching. They knew the contrast could have! tand, but one effect in politics. MUCH ADO ABOUT LAND Secretary of the Interior Ickes and Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Tugwell, usually friendly, fought tart- ly in the former's office over the sub- marginal land policy. Ickes wanted to go right ahead with the plan of buying up and retiring an equal amount of sub-marginal land for all land reclaimed by the Bureau of Reclamation, Tugwell, who doubts whether any- one knows just what is sub-marginal jand, sought delay and further study. The grim little secretary lost his temper as he insisted that he knew what Roosevelt wanted. But the is- sue isn’t settled yet. SPOILS OR SPOILS? C.

[ll tell you why—Jim Gun- nar had important business on hand that day! “And one other question: Where did this youngster, who was just an ordinary barnstormer—where did he suddenly get the eighteen thou- sand dollars for a new plane?” Baldwin and Holden exchanged glances of dismay.

How- ever much they wanted to see Kara- khan arrested, Tennyson was show-| ing them up too badly. “Don’t jump to conclusions,” Bald- win argued. “Gunner might just have been flying a plareload of whisky to an Indian camp or smug: giing something across the border. A lot of foreigners are taken into the States by air from here.” “Maybe so. I’m merely saying) that the trip looks suspicious to me. Holden, did that record give you any hint of where he dic go?” “Nothing whatever. The plane Just went away into the fog.” “You're sure there's no clue?” “Dead sure. You can see for your- self, I made a copy of the clearance record.” Curt looked at the hastily scrib- bled sheet. Gas and oll were the first two items. Then followed a few trifling purchases—cigarettes, chocolate bars, 8 box lunch. “That lunch,” he commented, “ought to have put @ person wise that Gunnar intended to stay in the air for several hours. You don’t teke a lunch along on a forty-five minute crow-hop.” His anger moved on down and stopped at a. entry which read NCS, 50c, “What's this item, Holden?” ( “Some gacget for the plane, 1 suppose.” Curt believed so, too, but the in- finite patience in him ‘ook nothing for granted. He reached the phone, got the airport and asked the parts wan what NC, 50c meant on a bill. “That? Oh, that’s for a Geology Service map—them strip maps that you hang inside the cabin on . roller and roll up or down as you fly along. ‘That NC-5 chart covers the section from Chilcotin north to the Grand ‘Trunk.

A THOUSAND yards off the north shore of Russian Lake, Curt and Paul stopped paddling . tew minutes and gazed ahead at the trading post, looking the place over before they landed. ‘The post lay at the mouth of the Lilluar River, a big mountain stream which had tts origin 300 miles north, near the Yukon head- waters. As far offshore ar they were, {ts tumultuous current tugged Strongly against the sider of thetr Canoe.

Five trapper and prospector tents were strung out down the land- wash; several shacks stood back at the wood’s edge, and the leather tepees of a dozen Indian families reached up along the river bank be yond the mission.
