B4 xx EL KSPLAN FORRURAL RED Regulations for Lending Ten Millions Revealed by Secretary. Regulations for the lending by the Agriculture Department of the $10,- 000,000 allotted by Congress to help finance agricultural credit corporations and live stock loan companies, were 8p- proved yesterday by Secretary Hyde. Setting up of corporations of at least $50,000,000 capital or expansions of old organizations, which, after receiving Federal loans, will in turn aid farm credit by rediscounting farmers' notes at the intermediate credit banks are provided by the regulations. Indirect Benefit Seen. i ‘The loans are not intended to finance | farm operations directly, but to expand | eredit in rural communities. “Used as & part of the capital of | credit -corporations, live stock loan | companies or similar organizations,” Secretary Hyde said; “this eppropri- ation will be the means by which the communities may borrow several times the amount supplied by the Govern- ment for loans to farmers, and will operate to supplement the regular eredit system.” Department officials did not expect any immediate large demand for the funds because of the simpler credit facilities provided for in the $2,123.- 000,000 relief act to be handled through the Reconstruction Corporation. Under this plan. 12_agricultural credit cor- porations would be set up, one in each Feceral Reserve district, with a capital | of $36,000,000, capable of rediscounting to the extent of $360,000.000. | Loans Are Limited. Under the Agriculture Department allotment, a group needing credit may organize an agricultural or live stock corporation. Loans are limited to in- dividuals and each borrower can obtain not more than 60 per cent of the par wvelue of the stock offered as security. If 50 individuals each subscribe $1,000 in stock, the maximum to each borrower would be $600 with $1.000 stock as collateral security deposited with the Secretary of Agriculture. Upon epproval of these loans, which would bear 5': per eent interest, the proceeds would be sent to the Federal intermediate credit bank serving the district.
