Iowa Farm Bureau seeks easing of bank credit rules
At its Des Moines meeting on April 20 21 the Iowa Farm Bureau Executive Committee adopted resolutions urging the Federal Reserve Board to modify postwar credit rules.

The resolutions call for renewed and increased credit to Iowa banks to support the 1921 corn and crop season and were sent to the American Farm Bureau Federation governor and Seventh District Fed leaders.
