Advocates Raise
In Federal Land
Bank Loan Limit
'Attorney Corey Called as Wit
ness Before Senate Com
mittee Believes Ken
yon Bill Will Pass.
Merton L. Corey, general attorney
for the Federal Land bank of Omaha,
returned yesterday morning from
Washington, where lie had been
called as a witness before the senate
banking and currency committee
Monday to testify as to Senator
Kenyon's bill providing for the in
crease of the loan limit of the fed
eral land banks from $10,000 to
$25,000.
In discussing the hearing, Mr.
Corey said:
"The federal farm loan board, and
I think a majority of the members
of congress believe that the federal
farm loan act should be enlarged to
enable all actual farmers to enjoy its
benefits. Land values are such, in
the Omaha district that we are pre
vented from serving many of the
most deserving farmers and ranch
men because the limit of $10,000 is
inadequate . for the average farms
and ranches in this territory. ,
"The senate committee on banking
and currency fully appreciates the
necessity for the increase and I am !
convinced that this amendment will
in time be passed. However, the
objection was strongly urged that
as the system aoes not now nave
sufficient funds to take care of all
applications for loans under $10,000,
it would only add to the embarrass
ment of administration to enlarge
the classes who are eligible to bor
row by increasing the limit to $25,000.
"The federal land bank of Omaha
takes the postion that every actual
farmer should be permitted to be
long to this co-operative farm loan
system and that so long as there is
a shortage of funds the banks will
necessarily . have to discriminate
imong the applicants, seeking to loan
the money where it will accomplish
!he most good. We believe that in
this district particularly the classes
which are hardest pressed are the
men owning reasonable sized farms
md ranches, who enjoyed extensive
:redit facilities before and whose
(aper is now in the local banks in
he form of frozen credits.
"We sincerely hope that congress
ivill promptly pass this amendment
enable us to bring early relief to
lome of our most needy ranchmen
nd farmers.
"Should this amendment fail at
his present special session of con
gress, I am confident that it will be
readily passed in the regular session
beginning in December, because we
anticipate that the - market for the
bonds will be sufficiently active to
provide funds for the making of
loans to all qualified borrowers up
to the proposed new loan limit of
$25,000."

Registration Law Not
Emergency Measure
Lincoln, July 20. (Special.) In
vestigation at the secretary of state's
office today revealed that the state
wide registration bill passed the low
er house by a vote of 54 to 37, which
is not , sufficient to make an emer
gency clause legal.
Through an error, which it was ad
mitted had been made, the bill went
to the governor and was signed with
the emergency clause attached.
The bill went through the senate
originally with the emergency clause
bill but this was striken out in the
house and the action of the lower
house was approved by the senaU
later.
Unless something unforseen hap
pens, operation of this law will be
held up until the people have an op
portunity to express themselves on
it at the next election.
