terest. Senators, Congressmen and
State Legislators advocated the far-
mer hort owing Government money
because it waa cheap. Many farmers
followed their advice. When It really
was not necessary to have the money,
they wereadvlaed to borrow. There-
fore, termers are not entirely to
blame for the unfortunate predica-
ment they now find thcr selves in.
In a letter written to ' remission-
er Paul Beaor, of the Farm Loan
Board, Mr. Fraser wrote;
"Many ot the letters I have re-
cently received have dwelt on the
fact that our Government wae will-
ing to declare a moiatorium for
Germany, suggesting tbai If we could
be xo magnanimous to our late enemy,
responsible for many of the Ilia that
the country la now suffering, snrely
our country could help lit own peo-
ple many of whoa fought to pre-
serve our home InatHotlone and the
liberty of our people"
Iu Mr. Fraser’s Judgment, our Gov-
ernment ehouid come to the as-
sistance of these thousands of farm-
ers who ore unable to meet their
obligations and who now- face the
l(i3s of their homes end their farms
through no fault of H eirs. The Fed-
eral Land Banka should take im-
mediate eleps so that leniency will
