Editorials From Over the Nation Sound Farm Credits Government-financed credit hanks for farmers have boon looked upon with askance by old-fashioned bankers who feared the fundamental principle of sound finance would be endangered. These fears were stimulated by arguments put forward by num erous agrarian senators and representatives in pressing for easier credit conditions for the agricultural population. They appeared less concerned about the wisdom and safety of loans demanded by producers of foodstuffs than about providing them with money. This was the basis of much of the opposition to farmers' relief legislation enacted by the last congress. It seems, though, that business principles are to govern administration of the new credit banks .which is the best for farmers. Chaii-mun Lobdell of the federal farm loan board, which will administer the intermediate credit banks, about ready for busi ness, says that "it is the ambition of those charged with the ad ministration of the new law to render maximum service, but ele mental safety must be the first consideration." This is as it should be. Were unwarranted risks taken on the theory that they may be justified by the intent of congress to afford credit where it could not reasonably bo demanded of private bankers, the end of the new system would be in sight. The credit banks are not designed to make loans to those not deserving of them but to those whose legitimate requirements cannot reasonably be met by priv ate banks out of their ordinary resources. This new credit system is in the nature of an experiment. The managers will of necessity feel their way carefully for a time, which may result in disappointments to some prospective borrow ers. Hut it is essential that it be substantially founded if it is to be successful. Hence it is serving the interest of fanners in the highest degree to make the beinnings on a basis of assured safety.
