as well as by one woman telling another.

Chief of Finance Corporation After a
Thorough Tour Of the South
and West Recently Reports |
To Harding.
Washington, D. C.—An encouraging
estimate of business conditions and
promise of further help by the war
fiance corporation was contained in a
statement made by Fred Starek, acting
head ot the corporation, after a confer-
ence with President Harding.
Starek declared that despite the im-
pression in many quarters the cor-
poration was making no effort to en-
force liquidation of the loans of many
millions of dollars it has outstanding,
and predicted that congress would be
asked at its next session to pass addi-
tional legislation lor the relief of cat-
tle interests in the southwest whose
herds have been taken into Mexico
for grazing.
Made Tour of the South and West
As managing director of the finance
corporation, Starek recently made a
tour of the south and west, traveling
many thousands of miles by airplane
and inquiring into the financial con-
ditions of many industries He re-
ported the results of this canvass to
the president at their conference
and also discussed some features
of the political situation, and of Har-
ding's forthcoming trip across the
continent and to Alaska. He said af-
terward thai the president intended to
discuss "every vital topic frankly and
courageously" in the speeches he will
make in the western states.
"I have discovered no cause for
gloom anywhere, but every reason for
optimism," said the finance corporation
head in discussing fiis survey of busi-
ness conditions. "With the exception
of certain isolated portions of the
northwest, the agricultural regions I
traversed suffered the most acutely
from post-war deflation and demoral-
ization. and from drouth and other na-
tural causes like the boll weevil, and
yet even in these sections people re-
gard the future pheerfully. Natural-
ly a croak or two was heard, other-
wise that word would have to be ex-
punged from the dictionary.

receive storage of 1 cent a bushel' —
each month on all wheat stored in
their bins after August 1, it was an-
nounced following a meeting of this
ooard of directors.
Many farmers have ample storage
facilities, it was said, and the action
came because of the increased vol-
ume of business which made it ad-
visable to hold some of the grain on
the farm this year.
Storage was not alio-wd on the
1922 crop because of the small volume
of business—3,250,000 bushels, but di-
rectors thought it advisable for the
000 bushels will be marketed on a co-
operative basis.
