The unfairness to the farmer of the Edison--Ford "commodity. mon-- ey" ~scheme, although ~Ostensibly atmed to improve his economic po-- sition, is discussed in the present article, which is the third in a so-- rles prepared by the American Bankers : Association, -- reviewing the exposure of the weaknsases of the plan ag presented by William T. Foster, Director of the Pollack Foundation -- for Etonomic . Re-- search. Restricted Credit In that provision allowing for Government loans only up to hait the avegrage value for twenty--fAve years Mr. Foster fAinds particular weakness 'in ~the :scheme. He points out that prices 'have risgen so high since 1396 that the farmer could borrow on most: products much less than htl!otbof_ present valug of the products--much less, in' fact, than he'could borrow di-- Briefly, the plan, sponsored by Thomas : Rdison and !:'m..fil', Ford, would provide . for nent warehousing of basic commodities, against which currency would: be loaned, during storage, to the pro-- ducer without interest, up to halft the average value of the products for the previous twenty--Ave years. On the other half of the value the producer would receive certifi-- cates which he could sell or use for bank loans. ISON--FORD PLAN UNFAIR TO FARMER t values uniformly and arbitrarily. _ It= es k by the merest chance would a method give a fair loan valus tion. Fifty per cont of the a) age price for the previous twenty> fAive years would be too high for some commodities and too low for, most of them. With such details the Edison plan is not concerned, .__Banks Fairer to Farmere ._. "The general practice of the banks is not only fairer to farm-- ers, but it is sounder business. There is no justification for basing the loan value Of anything upon average prices in past years. Sound : banking practice looks to the future. A bank--for the pro-- tection of its depositors, If for no other .. reason: ~~ must :. consider above everything the prospects of getting its money back. And & farmer's prospects of repaying & loan from the sale of his product depend entirely on future prices, not at all on past prices.. Last year's runs do ast count in this year's game." * ° As to the claim that the Mdison plan would curb speculation in farm products, Mr. FPoster %' "There is nothing in the plan that would tend to abolish' speciulation. Even after the farm-- er had stored his products and ob-- tained a loan from the Govern-- ment, he would sti! be tree to selt his products . outrisht to specula-- tors. : : The-- ftarmer would have all: the inducements to sell that .he has today, and speculators would have all the inducements to buy.; "Clearly,; then, the Edison plan would not provide 1 money that is sounder --than god money; it would not provide a© money less subject to fAuctuation in value; it would not enable 'farmers to ob tain-- larger loans 'than they can now. obtain; it woald not divorce tem:; and: it would not eliminate speculation in farm products." . .
