The president in his message, trans- mitted by messenger, dezlared the gov- ernment was ‘morally and legally bound” to fund the railroad debts and was under “an impelling moral obligation” to pro- vide agricultural credits. The ficst step toward meeting the second of the two requests—provision for additional farm credits—had in re- ality been taken in toe semate before the ‘presidential message was read. Senator Kellogg, republran, Minne- sota, introduced a bill, draited by Sec- retary of Commerce Hoover and Director Meyer of the war finance corporation and said to have the approval of the presi- dent as a substitute for the pending Norris bill to create a $100,000,000 farm export corporation. The bill as intro- duced embraced the presdent’s sugges- tions to empower the war finance cor- poration, instead of a new federal corpo- ration as provided in the Norris bill, to advance credits for agricultural ex- vorts, The president’s message dealt particu- larly with railroad financing and declared the propcsal that the war fmance corpora- tion take charge of funding the railroad’s debts to the governm:nt would dause “no added expense, no added liabhity, no added taxburden.” The president deseribed the propdsal as “a simple rem edy,” contemplating receipt and dispos tion by the corporation of “ample se- curities” deposited by the railroads. The message was referred Y the sen- ate to its interstate commerce commis- sion, but Chairman Cummins, in ill health, Wwas out of the city and when the railroad bill would be taken up was in doubt. Leaders, however, expected legislative action -within the next fortnight. Several senators, oppsing any further government alivances tothe car- riers, stated privately that they would fight the legislation.
