" Second Section ‘EASY MONEY’ FOR AID OF FARMERS Such a Period Now Is Being Experienced Washington, Aug. 5 (UP)—The | government has established an “eary money” period to stimulate general | business and aid farmers at the crop | moving season. ! Federal reserve banks at New | York, Boston, Kansas City and St. | Louls have reduced their discount vate to 3 1-2 per cent on all classes | ot paper. Similar cuts are expected in other federal reserve districts. Treasury officlals today said the | lower money rates would be a great | boon to farmers, who failed to keep | pace with other businesses in post- war reconstruction. The lower re- | discount rate assures better terms when borrowing mone; i There has been an unusual busi- ness complex during the first half of 1927, it was pointed out. Manu- | facture, production, mining, invest- | ments, big dividends and insurance have increased. At the same time commerical falures have been 36 per cent more than in the first half | of 1926. The lower re-discount rate will prove a factor in rehabilitating the flood-swept Mississippi valley. Mon- ey borrowed for reconstruction work and agricultural purposes will be freer and cheaper. The government also stands to profit by the easier mongy market. The reduction gives the treasury an advantage in retiring the 4 1-2 per cent second liberty loan bonds which have been called in, and also will be advantageous in retiring the $2,147,000,000 of third liberty loan bonds which mature next year. It was also pointed out that the reduction was partly aimed to give wider use to 'American gold abroad, | as the Fuglish rediscount rate is one per cent higher. Government statistics, however, show clearly that gold continuous to flow to-the| Tnited States despite the disparity in rates.
