Washington, Sept. 20.—Extension of
credit by the government does not
seem warranted by present conditions
Secretary Houston stated today, at-
tributing niuehi of the popular clamor
for more credit to persons design;
to bold their goods for higher prices.
The government could hardly aid
in withholding commodities fr >m the
market by extension of credit, 'he
secretary declared, without being a
party to a conspiracy in restraint o.
trade and making more secure higti-
price levels.
Credit extension recently has bee 1
ample, the secretary said, to piovid"
for the movement of crops an i the
general tendency has been more t<
wards expansion than restriction. The
situation, lie added, is clearing grad-
ually.
