Thereupon, Oland was called to the witness stand and was asked the two questions.

COMPETITION Shannon Warns Business to Present “United Front” in Hearings. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, November 15.—A commit-~ tee of Congress investigating Govern- ment competition with private industry yesterday reported a trend toward soli- darity of viewpoint among individual manufacturers who “hitherto have done no worrying about the other fellow’s ox_being gored.” Representative Joseph B. Shannon of Missouri, opening hearings of his Com- mittee for Middlewest and Eastern In- dustrialists, warned them to ‘“present a united front” before their protests against Government competition could be acted upon. Shannon reported that Peter B. Carey, president of the Chicago Board ¢ Trade, had told him the Grain Ex- change here no longer used envelops printed by the Government in com- petition with private stationers, and that a similar movement was under way in Kansas City. Grain exchanges have fought the Government's entry into business by subsidization of co-operatives which sought to keep wheat prices above mar- ket levels last year. R. J. Baker, secretary-treasurer of the American Steamship Owner's As- sociation, read a 4,000-word statement asking Congress to abolish the Panama | Railroad Steamship Line, which feeds the Panama Canal, and the Army and Navy Transport Service across the seas! The merchant marine, he said, could perform the functions of the transport service “more economically and effici- ently.” Representative Robert F. Rich of Pennsylvania told Baker the committee would try to get the Government figures. “I have never been able to make an Army or Navy man admit on the wit- ness stand that anything the services did was bad business,” Rich said. Dr. D. W. Campbell of Chicago, presi- dent of the American Veterinary Med- ical Association, asked the committee recommend no further congressional appropriations for agricultural extension work.

Although it was the first pay day for many of the Federal Home Loan Bank system's employes, the 12 regional banks today celebrated their first month of operation with the first loan to relieve distress among small home owners yet to be approved. Members of the Government's new credit board explained, however, the banks are functioning in taking care of applications for loans by sending them to eligible member institutions in the proper districts. Private Loans Urged. The rules of the system provide that home owners cannot get direct loans until they have failed to obtain credit from proper institutions. Consequently, applications first must be referred to private loan houses which are being en- couraged by the board to lend to the applicants. Nelther Chairman Franklin W. Fort hor any other member of the board would commit himself as to how soon the system would be in a position to extend loans out of its potential credit reservoir of $1,500,000,000.
