Farmers Chief Clients of U. S. Credit Bank One-Half of Discounts of Louisville Branch Consists of Notes of Agriculturists, Report Shows. By Times Special WASHINGTON Feb. 25.—Farmers' notes, indorsed by their production credit associations, are the largest item of outstanding loans and discounts of the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank of Louisville, President J. B E. LaPlante reported here today.

Mr. LaPlante is a former Hoosier farmer. "Os our total volume of discounts outstanding.’’ he stated, "practically one-half consists of the well-secured notes of farmers who are financing their farm operations on a cash basis through the 44 production credit associations of our district. "Loans to farmers’ co-operatives for financing the orderly marketing of stable farm products in warehouses account for 23 per cent and discounts for other lending institutions constitute 26 per cent of our present business* Many borrowers, but small loans, mark the business done by the Louisville bank, the president said. It ranks fifth among the 12 Intermediate Credit Banks in the number of borrowers, but 12th in total sums loaned. However, this condition is changing.” Mr. LaPlante declared. "The original feeling among our farmers was that these new short terms rredit co-operatives were suited only to financing small loans for crop production. "Each month from April to November of last season saw a substantial increase in the average amount per lean discounted, rising from $lB5 level in April to $539 average in November. “One of the best indications that farmers regard the system as a permanent source of credit is the excellent payment record they are making in this district Collections have been satisfactory.*’
