WAR FINANCE BILL TO PRE
v VENT 'UNCOVERED' LOANS
Washington, Feb. S. Secretary
McAdoo, before the Senate finance
committee explained the War Fi
nance corporation bill as purely a
war measure contemplating the
lending of money through banks for
operation of enterprises necessary to
the successful prosecution of the
war.
Under the bill's provisions, he ex
plained, should a bank lend money
to a munitions factory, the bank
could obtain through the war fi
nance corporation a loan amounting
to 75 per cent of the sum advanced.
These loans could be made to any
bank, whether a member of the fed
eral reserve system or not.
Direct loans to concerns engaged
in war activities could be made un
der specified restrictions if it were
shown that banks were discriminat
ing against them.
Similar legislation now in force in
England and France has been most
successful. Secretary McAdoo said.
Senator Penrose observed that in
England there had not been any is
sues of "uncovered paper."
"At least the covering is so thin
you can't see it," remarked Senator
Smoot, "and that is exactly what we
are coming to in this country."
Mr. McAdoo said the bill sought
to prevent that condition.
Some of the committeemen show
ed a marked disinclination to have
the directors of the war finance cor
poration appointed by Secretary Mc
Adoo, as the bill proposes, and in
sisted they should be appointed by
the President. Mr. JlcAdoo said he
did not object to amending the bill
to meet the objection.
The purpose of the legislation was
not to restrict existing borrowing
facilities, but to enlarge them, the
secretary said. Insurance compan
ies would also be enabled to obtain
relief by obtaining loans from the
corporation on railroad or war in
dustries securities.
