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.
