ADVANCING PRICES BOOST BUSINESS Reports Show Marked Trend Toward Liquidation in Loans. Advances in commodity prices have had a marked effect in stimulating business throughout the country, ac- cording to reports of loan agency man- | agers of the Rcconstruction Finance Corporation. Here yesterday for a conference with the directors of the corporation, they said the attitude of bankers, business men and individuals in their districts is | growing better daily. Loans Being Liquidated. One of the most notable factors in the situation, they said, is the liquida- ticn in loans made by the Agricuitural Credit Corporaticn and by the Recon- struction Cerporation itself. In many districts the rate of repaymenit has in» | creased materially since farmers began disposing of their products at rising prices. The meeting was held in an effort to speed up the work of reorganizing closed banks and creating new ones through purchase of preferred stock. Announcement Made. An announcement at the corporation | yesterday said: “It is hoped as the result of the con- ferences now being held to co-ordinate the work of all of the agencies located in the various Reserve districts with the Washington office and thereby to benefit both applicants and the cor- poration. since the loan agency man- agers are the governmental representa- tives with whom the borrowers first come into contact “It is the opinion of Jesse H. Jones, chairman of the board of the Recon- Elructicn Corporation, that the sessions now being held will serve to speed up Teorganization of all banks and the creation of new ones.” R ENOCH ARDEN CASE Second Marriage Annulled When “Dead” Husband Turns Up.

GANDHI CONTINUES FAST AFTER RELEASE Mahatma Expects to Survive on Boiled Water, Salt and Soda. By the Assoclated Press. POONA. India, May 9.—The Mahat- | ma Gandhi is endeavoring to survive | | his three weeks' fast on a diet of botled | | water, salt and soda. The spiritual leader of millions of Indians is just as certain that he will ;ur\'h‘c as are physicians that he will | ie. The Mahatma is passing the period |of the fast in the sumptuous Poona | bungalow of a devoted follower, Lady | Vittal Das Thackerray. widow of a Bombay merchant. The 63-year-old | Nationalist was taken there last night | from Yeroda Prison. He was released from the prison, | where he was held 16 months for his civil disobedience campaign against the government. a few hours after starting the fast. Ghandi announced his civil | disobediencé cmpaign was being aban- doned for a month. He insisted this proclamation was voluntary although abandonment had been the condition long demanded by the government in | return for his release. Gandhi sat today in a pillowed chair on the marble verandah of the Bom- bay widow's bungalow. He insisted he | | would not seek any advantage from his | release and that he was ready to go | back to the prison if the government ‘:‘.nd the Nationalist Congress failed to reach an agreement on political prob- | lems in the meanwhile. His fast is not connected with this issue but, in his own words, is intended | to remove bitterness, purify hearts and | make clear that his movement in be- | half of India's lowly “untouchables” is wholly moral.
