ALLEN BELL DRAYMAN Phone 24 Transfer and Express Senator Stanfield Renders Great Service to Oregon In an address sent to and read before the Portland Ad vertising Club, Wednesday, Ap ril 21, 1926, United States Sen ator Robert N. Stanfield said: "When I entered the U. S. Senate, March 4, 1921, agricul ture was in dire straits, prices were down, producers were hard up and the banks and loan companies in farming communi ties were unable to realize on the notes they held. Quick ac tion was necessary to relieve the agricultural distress, , Works Hard, With Gooding, For Emergency Tariff " After repeated efforts I suc ceeded, assisted by Senator Gooding of Idaho, in overcom ing the objections of Senator Penrose, Chairman of the Sen ate Finance Committee, to an emergency taritt on tarm pro- J f 0i I J' .

This Act placed protective duties on 28 of the principal farm pro ducts, including wheat, corn, potatoes, onions, cattle, meat, wool, butter, cheese, milk, apples, cherries and nuts. Stanfield Comes to Rescue With Amendment "On May 20, 1921, the Stanfield Bill was introduced "to preserve the livestock industry of the United States, to release for commer cial, agricultural ' and industrial purposes certain funds of banks, livestock loaning and trust companies, to amend the war finance corporation act, and for other purposes." "The Stanfield Bill, or its principal provisions, became a law on August 24, 1921, the Senate Committee on Agriculture submitting its main features through Senator McNary as an amendment substi tuted for the Norris Bill, along with other provisions. Under its terms the War Finance Corporation made advances for agricultural relief amounting to $298,000,000, of which the banks, trust and loan companies of Oregon that serve agriculture received $6,696,000. Drafted Into Relief Service by Treasury Department "As soon as the War Finance Corporation was prepared to fun tion under this law, and at the request of the Treasury. Department, I went West, where I spent months assisting and advising with the bankers, thereby enabling them to procure the needed help quickly and before it was too late to save them. Fortunately, very few fail ed in Oregon in comparison to other states. Forced to Keep Silent to Protect the Banks "Much was said about my absence from the Senate during this time, but I was forced to keep silent and go about my work without referring to my mission, because if the people had known why J was in the West and what I was doing, suspicion would have been directed to every bank I entered, and to every banker with whom I talked. Until the banks could turn their frozen paper into liquid as sets, my silence was imperative to avoid embarrassment to them and jhe defeat of the relief needed and sought." (Paid Adv.
