. better terms and lower interest rates INTEREST SAVINGS T0 FARMERS CITED Reduction of $180,000,000 Annually Is Reported at Federation Convention. B the Associated Press. PASADENA, Calif., December 9.— Annual interest on the farm mortgage debt has been reduced by about $180,- 000,000 since 1930, W. I. Myers, gov~ ernor of the Farm Credit Administra- tion, told the American Farm Bureau Federation convention today. This reduction is practically the same, he said, as increasing farmers’ purchasing power by that sum. “Mortgage interest payments of 800,000 borrowers through the Farm Credit Administration are lower by more than $74,000,000 this year due to debt refinancing at lower rates of interest and because of temporary interest subsidies provided by Con- gress,” asserted the governor. “This direct saving results from the refinancing program of the Farm Credit Administration, which now holds approximately 40 per cent of the total farm real estate mortgage debt in the United States.” Myers said, however, that subsidized interest rates for agriculture should be confined to the emergency period. “With the benefit of reasonable prices for farm products and interest rates in line with the cost of borrow- ing money on a business basis,” he added, “the indebted farmer will have ample opportunity to work his way out. “The long-term program of the Farm Credit Administration is not to create special privileges, but to assure credit equality for agriculture. It is doing this by building and strengthen- ing co-operative credit co-operatives which are organized for permanency.” Benefits of refinancing activities, the governor said, are reflected as well in now available to many borrowers whose farm mortgages are held by other creditors. There also has been a diametric change in creditor-farm debtor relation in the past three and one-half years, he said. ———— BUFFALO TO BE HUNTED Arizona to Lift Ban on Part of Herd. PHOENIX, Ariz, December 10 (P.—Buffalo hunting, exciting sport of the Old West, will return to Arizona February 5—under the watch- ful supervision of the State Game and Fish Commission. The commission announced yester- day the hunt will be held in House Rock Valley. Hunters will be per- mitted to kill 14 bison from a herd of 161. Dog Snarls Traffic. CHICAGO (#).—Unhurt but seem- ingly annoyed when an automobile knocked him under a street car, a | dog snarled up traffic on the Ashland | avenue line by refusing to come out | from -under. He spurned the motor- | man’s overtures. He failed to respond to a police squad’s offer of cookies, candy and sausage. Finally, with a dozen street cars stymied by the an- imal's stubbornness, two wrecking crews were called. They jacked up the car. Out walked the dog. Santa Claus Is Arrested. OMAHA, Nebr. (#).—They arrested | Banta Claus here. But it was only his first offense so the police let him 80. Appropriately dressed, William M.

Law-makirg isn't the only job Jacing members of the Seventy- fifth Congress which convenes Jan= uary 5. House hunting is a pere sonal and sometimes acute prob- lem. Especially is this true of the Senators and Representatives com- ing to Washington for the first time. This angle of congressional chores is presented by Eddy Gil- more in the second of a siz-story primer for new legislators. BY EDDY GILMORE. Housing in the District offers con- gressional newcomers virtually every- thing but a laboratory for oratorical homework. Callous natives long ago worked out a deadly technique—the counter irri- tant system—to discourage lawmakers from unlimbering forensic guns in residential sections. A stentorian cry of “Mr. Speaker” floating across a suburban lawn sends veteran Washingtonians into burst of song. At the call of “My fellow citizens!”— which has raised many a home town sudience to its feet—the Capitolian raises his window and yells “Fire!” 106 Freshmen Face Rigors. Ninety-five neophyte Representatives and 11 of the 15 freshmen Senators face the rigors of house-hunting in a Capital already bulging out of the origi- nal designs of the Frenchman, L'En- fant. Four of the new Senators—Lee, Gillette, Lundeen and Brown—have as THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Neophyte Legislators to Run Gantlet of House Hunting Party Lines Snap as Common Problem Is Attacked by Freshman Con- gressmen in Bulging Capital. Representatives run thé gantlet of hard-eyed landlords and tender-eared residents, and are housing-hardened. Great sections of the Congressional Record have been filled with speeches on housing, and on scores of occasions the galleries of both houses have rung with the living problems of party leaders. Back in 1914, when fashionable 8ix- teenth street was changed temporarily to the “Avenue of the Presidents,” John Sharpe Williams, then a Repre- sentative, raised vigorous protest.| Pointing out that he and Vice Pres- ident Marshall lived on adjoining Fif- teenth street, he urged Congress to rename the thoroughfare the “Alley of the Vice Presidents.” Land Problem Acute. Only last session, Representative Maverick of ‘Texas complained bitterly when he had to search the city to find enough earth to fill two window boxes of a fourth floor apartment. “With all the land I've got back home,” he wailed, “and I have to pay 60 cents for a shovelful up here.” Representative Burdick of North Dakota retreated to a nearby farm in his first year. When colleagues paid him an unexpected visit, they found him not raising his voice in vocal practice, but raising goats. “I found,” he confided, “that it's easier to bring up a herd of goats than to secure 30 minutes for a speech in the House of Representatives.” Party lines snap as weary legislators annually retreat from the tough trail SUGAR SHELF RECIPES “Gay deceivers!

To members of the Trinket Club, who some time in the last five years have signed a card which entitled them “to make little children happy at Christmas,” club officials would like to issue the reminder that the original card entitles its bearer to life membership. P. D. Morrison, founder of the club five years ago and its present head, said yesterday he believed some of the organization’s members were un- der the impression their membership had to be renewed every year. Because of the short length of time between now and Christmas it will be necessary, however, that members turn in new toys to the club rather than old ones that will have to be reconditioned. ‘The club headquarters, located at 1110 F street, consists of one large room filled with toys of every descrip- tion. By presenting his card a mem- ber is admitted, and once in he can D. C, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1936. take out all the toys he likes for dis- tribution to needy children. No ques- tions are asked and no records are kept, except names and addresses of members. Morrison said there have been more “givers” among members than “takers.” The club was organized as a small group of friends and now has more than 525 members. Last year 2,000 toys were distributed. Chewing Gum Repairs Radiator. ‘WINFIELD, Kans. (#).—A bus load of college debaters from Hastings, Nebr., was en route here for an inter- collegiate debate tournament. The bus radiator sprang a series of leaks. The debaters whipped out sticks of chewing gum, chomped their agile jaws, plugged the leaks with masti- cated chicle—and arrived on time. adding GULOENS m € - Mustard .
