This condition tends Inevitably to ward a high rate of interest. Apart from usury and foreclosure laws, there are three factors which determine in the main the rate of interest: The ratio ot money or loanable runds to tne ucmauu . the length of the loan; the character of the i-' .it. .mbIiIhv thA rate of security, whciouj - - . interest decrease as the amount of loan able funds increases, as mo leusi.i -- -. 1 I . . .. .. ... i- as Ihl,' .hHr. loan increases, . . acter ot the security increases.

He needs money to purchase or complete the purchase ot his home and to Improve his homestead when purchased. He needs a system of credits not primarily to enable him to get into debt, but to enable him to get out of debt. There are millions of money in this coun try seeking long-time investments with safe and stable security and willing to .accept low rates of Interest. Now what we need Is a system of rural credits that will bring these two factors together, that will bring the farmer seeking long-time loans at low rates into contract with the Investor seek ing long-time Investment and willing to ac. cept a low rate of interest. Such a system would serve the interest of both, would sac rifice the Interest of none. By stimulating the progress and prosperity of the farmer it would insure and promote general progress and prosperity. To accomplish these ends I secured an amendment to the agricultural appropriation bill some two years ago creating The United States Farm Credits Commission. This commission studied the various Euro pean systems and upon its report a bill has been prepared and presented to Congress. The foundation for rural credits legislation has been thus laid deep and broad. For my own part.

MONTEREY IS THREATENED Carranza Forces Still Hold San Luis Potosl Whereabouts of Gutier rez and Garza Unknown to Washington. WASHINGTON, Jan. 30. General Ob regon rules at Mexico City in the name of General Carranza. first chief of the constitutionalists, who is at Vera Cruz. General Villa is at Aguas Calientes, General Zapata at Cuernavaca and the whereabouts of Roque Gonzales Garza and Eulalio Gutierrez, lately succes sively in charge of the executive power in Mexico City, are unknown. This is the geographical distribution of the various chiefs in Mexico, shown In advices today to the State Depart ment. Three distinct movements inde pendent of each other are in the field with forces of varying magnitude. Carranza Stays at Vera Cms General Csrranza, at the head of a large part of tne original constitution alist forces, will remain at Vera Cruz, which, It is understood, will continue as capital of his government, notwith standing the occupation of Mexico City by General Obregon's men. The forces of General Zapata men ace the line of communication between Vera Cruz and Mexico City. They are still said to- be working in harmony with the Villa forces under the au thority of the convention government. Carransa Threatens Monterey. - In the north the Carranza forces hold San Luis Potosi and are threatening Monterey, which is held by General Felipe Angeles, chief lieutenant of Gen eral Villa. The latter, at Aguas Cal ientes, is preparing a southward move ment against Queretaro, where some of the forces of General Gutierrez are reported to have assembled. Dispatches to tire Carranza agency here say that Generals Robles, Luclo Blanco and Aguirre Benavides, who fled from Mexico City with Eulalio Gutierrez, have Joined the Carranza movement, but nothing is known of the intentions of Gutierrez himself. General Obregon. at Mexico City, was officially reported as disclaiming any combination with Gutierrez. Although the siege of Puebla is said to have been abandoned by Zapata, his forces are still in occupation of the farthest outlying suburbs of Mexico City, according to State Department reports. VILLA AVOUXDED IX AFFRAY Details of Shooting in Car at Aguas - Calientes Are Withheld. EL. PASO, Tex., Jan. 30. General Francisco Villa, northern revolutionary chieftain, was shot, but only slightly wounded several days ago at Aguas Calientes in an affray, the details of which have been carefully suppressed. This was the report brought directly from Villa's headquarters by persons who arrived on today's train. Local rumors had related that Villa had been seriously wounded by Colonel Rodolfo Fierro, his personal bodyguard. Those who came from Aguas Calientes said that they had been unable to learn who had shot Villa. The shooting oc curred at his car in the railroad yards at about the time American Consul Silliman at Mexico City telegraphed Washington officials that he had re ceived a report of Villa's having been seriously wounded. For two days no definite word has come of conditions in the Interior south of Aguas Calientes, nor of any im portant military movements on either side. South of Aguas Calientes there is an embargo on both railroad and tele- v. ia ThA villa officials at Kmpu ac . Juarez even have failed to confirm re ports that Carranza troops occupy the capital. Zapatistas Beaten Xear Capital. MEXICO CITY, Jan. 30. The Zapata forces have been defeated and driven back from Hermita, near Tacubaya (a suburb of this city). Carranza adher ents still are pursuing the defeated troops. The capital- remains quiet. General Obregon Issued a decree today declaring void all paper money Issued during the Villa regime. TASK FOR LAST HALF BIG (Con tlnued From First Page.) tween the Falls and at Oregon City and the mouth of the Clackamas got through the House, but the Schuebel bill to consolidate the game and fish fund with the general fund is still on the table. Numerous other game bills, most of them affecting the dates of open season on various species of game now are before the game committee. The prohibition bill has been reported back to the House by the committee on alcoholic traffic with its favorable recommendations. It is probable that a suspension of rules wtll be asked when this measure In its amended form is printed so that it need not remain on the desks of members for three days as required under the present rules. Every menfber of the House seems to favor the present bill, but if any amendments are necessary they will be made in committee of the whole. Dry Leader Sanguine. It is the intention of the House to get this measure out of the way and into the hands of the Senate with the least possible delay. Chairman Littlefield, of the committee on alcoholic traffic de clared today that he expects it to pass the House unanimously. Legislation affecting the workmen s compensation act also will demand the attention of the House this week. The committee on labor and industries this afternoon submitted a bill that will reclassify the industries under the present law and will ask that no fur ther changes be made. It Is expected that the House will act favorably on this measure. The bill to do away with the petition peddling that created such a furore in the House on Friday afternoon will be back from the revision of laws com mittee eany in tne week. It was recommitted with instruction to amend so that candidates may have the option of filing for office either by the peti tion route or by paying a cash fee to the county or state authorities. Changed Bill May Pass. The section requiring a candidate to support his or her successful oppo nent in case of defeat also will be . 1 1. .. n.. t mnHifiM.

' Seven measures for the support of as many state Institutions already have made their appearance. Others will come out of tbe bands of the ways and means committees as fast as they can be prepared. The Senate has proceeded slowly. Few freak or unnecessary bills have been introduced and those that ap peared received scant consideration. Not for many sessions have so few bills been offered with the time half expired as now. At the end of the 20th day in 191S about 210 bills had been intro duced, while today, with only 20 days of the session remaining, there are only 159 measures on the calendar. Committee Work Great. Committee work has been an impor tant feature of this session. The com mittees have worked more faithfully than ever before, with the result that quicker action has been obtained on the floor of the Senate. Only' two meetings had been held by the Senate committee on consolidations of boards and commissions before it was able to announce a definite programme, which was turned over to a similar commit tee of the House for consideration. Senator Barrett, representing Morrow, Umatilla and Union counties, who pre pared the original draft, had long con sidered plans for retrenchment de manded by the people, and his pro posals, with few changes, were ac cepted by the committee. The reduction of many boards and commissions to 12, as suggested by him, met with ready favor by other members, and while it is believed now the plan will not have smooth sailing in the House, it will furnish the nucleus for reform In state government that is certain to obtain. Woman-Jury Bill Falls. One of the most interesting lights in the Senate was that on the proposal to make women eligible for jury service. Senator Langguth. of Multnomah, in troduced the bill at the request of the heads of several women's clubs, and with Senator Moser, chairman of the juriclary committee, made a vigorous fight for its passage. The bill was passed early this week by a comfort able majority but was recalled from the House and reconsidered, with the result that its enemies centered their hcavv artillery upon it with disastrous results. It was defeated today by "a large majority, the principal arguments against it being that because it ex empted women who do not wish to serve on juries it was class legisla tion and therefore unconstitutional. -ni X13G.319.90 in anoronriatlons nas been asked in the Senate so far and not 1 cent has been approved. The Marion County delegation has argued that something should be done to re- ieve the canneries during the busy season, and it is probable that a com promise bill, giving the Industrial wel fare Commission power to allow women to work longer than ten hours in can neries at certain seasons, will be passed.
