D R T - Bankers Scared by Farmers’ Protest American Bankers’ Association Warned by Speakers That Business Men Must Mend Their Ways or Face Trouble MERICAN bankers are frankly frightened by the protest that has been stirred up by the farm- ers of the West on ac- count of the refusal of credit to farmers, the prime cause of the recent slump in the prices of all farm products. This is plainly re- . vealdd by the tone of speeches made at the recent meeting of the American Bankers’ association at Washington, D. C. ‘While the bankers were in session it was:announced that John Skelton Williams, comptroller of the currency, was compiling a list of banks that had refused farmers credit and at the same” time were making loans at high rates of interest to purely speculative en- terprises. A It was also brought out, while the bankers were in session, that loans to “Wall street, in a period of less than a year (October <1, 1919, to August 1, 1920), had totaled the tremendous fig- ure of $5,400,000,000 — an amount equal to the total circulation of money in this country. These- loans were made at high rates of interest to aid the stock gamblers. They were made while the American farmer was vainly pleading for help so that he might harvest and market his crop. These loans were largely “call” loans. Loans totaling approximately $1,500,000,000 are still in effect. If half of them were “called” at once the entire na- tion would be thrown into panic and the majority of banks would be forced to suspend payment.’ : Yet the federal reserve banks had plenty of money to finance this sort of business, although Secretary of the Treasury Houston told farmers they need expect no help from the govern- ment. . : Joseph H. Defrees, president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, addressing the American Bank- ers’ association convention, said frankly that business must correct its misdemeanors before it could get the confidence of the public. He added that business men must be content with a smaller per cent of profit in fu- ture. He also warned the bankers that the public was getting tired of the undue influence that-business or- ganizations were exerting over con- gress and the various state legisla- tures. “There has been considerable basis for the belief that the threaten- ing and dictatorial attitude of some organizations. in legislative matters has had an undue influence,” he said. ROBINSON WARNS BANKERS TO BEWARE Henry M. Robinson, millionaire Cal- ifornia banker, addressed the bankers’ convention on co-operative marketing. Co-operative marketing for farmers, he declared, was the same thing that collective bargaining was to organized labor. “Thirty years ago the banker often felt that he was the community and that his was the final decisiofi as to who, and to what extent, credit should be advanced,” said Robinson. Now, he said, bankers generally ac- cepted the fheory they acted merely as trustees for the community. ~ . ‘Farmers, said Robinson, were enti- tled to have credit, not merely for the purpose of harvesting their ‘crop, but™ sufficient to entitle them to hold it for a “reasonable time”_for better mar- kets. He put it up frankly to the bankers that they must either help co- operative “marketing.- enterprises or witness “the establishment of banks and the carrying on of such financial operations ‘as’have never yet been at- tempted by any like organization, ex- cept, possibly, the Nonpartisan league.” ; Secretary of Agriculture E, T. Mer- edith addressed the convention, also warning the bankers, for their own good, .that they had better mend their ways before it was too late. “Apparently well-founded com- plaints have reached-the department,” said Meredith, “that farmers have been denied credit for essential pro- ductive -purposes while the producers of expensive luxuries and the dealers in them have been accommodated. BANKERS ATTACK CO-OPERATIVE INSURANCE “Other complaints have reached the department to the effect that co-oper- ative enterprises have not_only failed to receive the support they merit but, in some cases, have met with the ac- tive opposition of certain local bank- ers. As an example may be cited one of the most successful forms of co- operation among farmers in the United States, that of mutual fire insurance. There are at present nearly 2,000 such companies, with total . outstanding risks aggregating $6,000,000,000. “This enormous volume of risks is carried at an average cost of only 25 cents per $100 per year. Nevertheless local bankers have, in individual instances, rejected the policies of such organiza- tions as collateral in connection with loans, when the only apparent explana- tion has been the desire of a repre- sentative of the bank to write a new policy in some commercial organiza- tion at the customary rate of commis- sion.” Meredith, himself.the publisher of Successful Farming, a farm paper which is “sold” to farmers for less than the cost of production and there- fore depends upon advertising revenue for its income, said frankly that the bankers controlled the press of the country. He urged that the bankers see that the papers show more inter- est in agriculture.” He said: “I do not believe -the editorial col- umns of our papers are devoted so largely to matters other than agricul- tural because of any lack of interest in agriculture, but rather because they are closer to business./ ' The business men suggest and expect discussion .of matters having to do "with business. * % % The farmers ‘are not in po- sition to get their views fully before the public or effectively to protect - their interests.” The threat of Comptrdller of the Currency Williams to expose bankers of the West and South who have used federal reserve money for Wall street loans, while refusing credit to farm- ers, has an even greater danger to the unfair bankers. It is pointed out that while the banks got . this federal re- - serve money at 4% to 5 per cent, they have been able to earn as high as 20 to 30 per cent on it on New York “call” loans for the benefit of Wall street. . At the same time their own customers, the farmers of. their own localities, were vainly calling. for money at 7, 8 and 10 per cent. ST - FIRE LOSSES According to the report of the Na- tional Board of Fire Underwriters the American ' people lost last year through ' fires $325,000,000. This is equivalent to $3.13 for every man, woman - and child in the country. Whether the property burned is insur- ed or not, it means an'actual loss in finished products or raw materials of $900,000 every day. e PAGE FOURTEEN b ~ Get This Smcke House |1& x\'fl’fomfiflt Don’t Sell All Your Hogs § Save a few and be sure of good, clean, and- cheaper meat for your own table.
