Immigration from iheso countries has fallen con siderably within the last few years due to better farming con ditions at homo, bfe said. Mr. Spenco is not entirely in favor of a farm credit bill to bo Introduced In congress "by Repre sentative Hawley of Oregon. Mr. Spence claims that the rate of Interest is too high, and will not meet tho requirements In time of panic. With reference to Mr, llawloy's measure, Mr Sponco also believes that there would not bo enough money for the farmers to borrow In tlmo of panic ' Mr. Sponco favors tho Idea that tho money should bo bor rowed from tho state or federal government and that tho farmer should mortgage 1i!b farm for approximately 50 per cent of Its vnluo. This would allow the far mer enough money to drain the lund and make improvements, according to Mr. Spenco. Tho rate of income from tho average farm Is not sufficient to warrant tho farmer to pay over five per cent interest on borrow ed money, according to Mr. Sponco. lie believes that tho stato or national government should loan monoy to tho farmer at from 4 to 5 per cont and tho cnplta land, Interest to bo paid back by yearly payments cover ing approximately twenty-fivo years. Mr. Spenco called attention to tho fact that the national gov ernment loa'riB monoy to nation al and regional banks at 2 per cent and believes that tho far Snors should )e entitled to n similar consideration, .
