President Roosevelt sent a special message to the House vetoing a bill to extend the 3.5 percent interest rate on Federal Land Bank loans for 1938–39. He outlined five reasons, arguing no subsidy is justified, farm incomes rose dramatically, current rates are justified, revenue loss to the Farm Mortgage Corp. would be about $8.35 million, and the move would conflict with the 1938 budget balance drive.
