BROOKHART URGES BANK FOR FARMERS lowa Senator Shys Present Financial System Under Wall Street Control. By the Associated Press. bing the Federal Land and in- termediate credit banks as “in the con- trol of Wall Street representatives,” Senator Brookhart, Republican, Towa, suggested today that farmers be allowed tl;o'n&hblish & banking system of their Such & move, he said in an address over the National Broadcasting system, would lay the foundation for success of efforts to bring agriculture oug of the depression, “an established institu- tion since 1920.” The board which now controls the Federal Land and intermediate credit banks, Brookhart asserted, should be abolished and the institutions turned over to the Farm Board. Then the latter u.h:;xld be lu:ihcrged to develop a complete co-operative banking system, he added. Says Authority Withheld. “When this is organized and de- veloped, it would supplement $he nec: sity for Government money and en- able the farmers to finance their own co-operative propositions,” Brookhart seid. “At present they have no per- mission even to organize such a sys- tem under either the laws of the States or the United States. The big finan- clal interests have watched these laws and kept all such authority from them.” He d the Federal Reserve Board for having done “more to bring about the agricultural depression than all other causes combined,” and said if | the Farm Board “does not want to be | abolished” it should back legislation for | an “Efficient and Nation-wide co-opera- | tive banking system.” The simpliest way to establish the system, he said, would be “to amend the intermediate credit act and change that bank into a national co-operative | reserve bank with all the powers of | the Federal Reserve bank, including | the power to issue co-operative re- serve notes as currency upon the same mflp as the Federal Reserve bank | Charges Discrimination. “As our banking system is now con- | trolled,” Brookhart contended, “even the surplus credit and deposits of the | farmers themselves are sent away to New York to be loaned to brokers in stock gambling at & low rate of in- terest, as low as 1 per cent, while farm- ers must pay from 6 to 12 per cent for | loans to produce the food of life itself.” HOLDS U.
