W'ADOO WILL GIVE | OMAHA SQUARE DEAL Secretary of Treasury So Promises at Commercial Club Luncheon. EXPLAINS fifi LOAN LAW A M'ADOO STORY. Secretary McAdoo _told story at a luncheon given in his hnnm at the Commercial club “A democratic friend of mine in the south wa: lican friend 3 .mlvv wisdom of the latter lu Texas in_the lcg,al profe dentocratic friend made this ‘As an honest lawyer you will find no competition in Texas, and as a republican, you will be protected by the game laws.” | | | “I anticipate by your eager and| confident faces that you expect a farm | loan bank in Omaha. There is no po- sition that tempts me so to profanity | as to_have to be neutral, but Omaha | is going to get a square deal,” stated | Hon. William G. McAdoo, secretary | of the treasury of the United States, speaking at noon to a large gathering )i men at the Commercial club. The secretary gave a succint and | interesting explanation of the scope and operation of the farm loan bank | ld\\ “The farm loan system is a recip- | rocating part of. the credit mechanism of this country. It does not collide nor conflict, but rather’dovetails in,’ continued the speaker. Politics Has No Part. “There is nothing political in these | things,” he added. “I have contempt | for men who think only of legislation for the benefit of some political party.

We have in the past failed to adequately organize the farm credit of the country.” Benefits the Farmers. The speaker referred to the people of the west as vigorous, with a vision, and a citizenship which has been an inspiration to the people of the east. He explained that the farm loan banks will be for the benefit of the moderate and bona fide farmers and not for land speculators. He said that the federal reserve act has enlarged the credit resources of the country. Introducing Secretary McAdoo, Gurdon W. Wattles said: “There is a feeling of cordiality and good will on the part of the bankers of Omaha toward the farm loan | banks. Omaha is the natural base for a farm loan bank. Prosperity Ims‘ come to us in such a degree that we are no longer dependent on outsiders, but we realize that great benefits will accrue through the establishment of a farm loan bank here. It will relieve many from the results of misdirected information and will encourage sav- ing in this community.” Secretary McAdoo was accorded a generous reception from the gather- ing of representative men of Omaha.
