What About Usury?
13 Billions for Crime.

1LAK President I'ooliilve n -tici-il
tlie Federal Hosi-rve
Hunk's itetivities in promoting
usury .'
The alleged desire is to dis
courage stuck speculation. So
called "cull money" witli which
1 lie speculators gamble goes to
7 and 8 per cent.
Hanks, whose business it is
to make money for their stock
holders, immediately raise their
interest rates to men in legiti
mate business.
The country, bursting with
money, is put on a hard-times
lisis. What effect will that
liffvc on our prosperity? lloiv
docs it impress I'resident Cnol
idge, who comes from a state
that docs not like usury ?
Is usury, organized on a na
tional scale, even against stock
speculators, a thing that the
government should tolerate?
Was the Federal Reserve es
tablished to keep credit evenly
abundant and promote pros
perity ?
Or was it to be used, as it is
used now, to help insurious
money lenders to gouge busi
ness men? linnks, properly
managed, are doing fairly well
with dividends from 50 to 100
per cent a year, and extra dis
bursements. Was it. really, necessary to
fltld usury to the' financial
game?
