On Tuesday, the Reserve bank handled about 60,000 United States government checks of which about 80 per cent or 48,000 were pay checks of CWA workers. This was the great- est number of government warrants ever run through the huge transit de- partment of the bank. ' The checks averaged $15 each. Some were as high as $28 and some as low fas five dollars, but the average was $15. There were thousands of $16.50 each, representing a full week's wages for manual labor om CWA projects at 55 cents an hour. At $15 each, the 48,000 of CWA checks amourited to $710,000. As ment warrants run to considerably \larger amounts, it is estimated that | the total handled by the Reserve bank in its peak day's is well over $1,500,000. All of this money represents a def- inite addition to the purchasing bower of the people in the ninth fed- eral reserve district, which in addition to Minnesota, the Dakotas and Mon- tana, includes northwest Wisconsin and upper Michigan. ‘The 48,000 of CWA checks handled Tuesday is only one day’s business at the Federal Reserve bank. Adding the $2,250,000 total of CWA money put into circulation in the earlier days of January to the $7,500,- 000 figure for December and finally adding Tuesday's one-day record of $700,000 brings the amount poured into the northwest thus far by this one branch of the recovery movement to nearly $10,500,000.

Party Leaders in Senate and House Predict Success for Legislation Washington, Jan. 10.—(?)—President, Roosevelt in his first special message congress Wednesday proposed that the government guarantee the principal of the $2,000,000,000 in bends for refinancing of farm mort- gages. Also, in @ conference with Chair- man Fahey of the Home Loan Board, he agreed that the $2,000,000,000 in heme loan bonds should be treated on a basis of substantial equality with the farm mortgage bonds. A recom- mendation on methods of providing some form of government guarantee is now being prepared, but Wednes- day’s message did not deal with this, The senate and house were ac- quainted in the brief message with the president’s conviction that the government has the moral responsi- bility to guarantee these issues. He pointed out that the action recommended would put the bonds on ®@ par with treasury securities. Should Acknowledge Obligations “It is true,” he said, “that techni- cally the responsibilities of the gov- ernment will be increased by the amount of $2,000,000,000, but it seems in every way right that we thus pub- licly acknowledge what amounts already to a moral obligation. “In any event,” the securities to be offered are backed, not only by the credit of the government, but also by bea Property of very definite value.” The Democratic leadership of sen- ate and house no doubt they would be able to get the legis- lation wanted.
