Federal Reserve Gov Outlines Remedy for Cattle Credit Crisis
At Topeka conference on May 20 W P G Harding proposed a hundred million dollar finance corporation under government control but independent of the Fed to extend long term cattle credits.

A Wichita speaker warned that rising cattle paper rates threaten the southwest breeding herd within two years without relief. Former Governor W R Stubbles of Lawrence also spoke as a ranching figure.
