FORECLOSURES
RELIEF ENDED,
FRAZIER SAYS
* _
Author of Measure
Killed by Court
Urges Farmers To
Organize
WASHINGTON. May
Senator Frazier (R-ND>, oo-author
of the farm mortgage moratorium
law wiped out by the supreme court
Monday, expressed little hope Tues
day that new legislation meeting
the court's objections could be
passed
Gloomily, he predicted that mort
gage-holders who had been influ
enced by the law to reduce their
claims would now “go back to fore
dosing.'*
L'rgea Organization
He said It is “the duty" of debt
burdened farmers to organize to
save their homes.
> “Why shouldn't they protect their
homes?" he demanded. “It isn't
their fault that the prices they
teceive for their products are not
sufficient to pay their debts. I put
i home rights and family life above
property rights every time. I can't
get the viewpoint of the court
deciding that property rights come
first.”
The man who helped push the
Frazler-Lemke mortgage morato
rium bill through the last congress,
expressed fear also that, if farmers
have a good crop this year, the
"emergency" under which they have
obtained relief under state mora
torium laws be declared at an end
gnd more foreclosures ordered.
“Actually, one crop won't be
yearly enough to enable them to
f»ay out." he explained. “I'm afraid
tss going to be a pretty serious
actuation."
The Frazler-Lemke act, which the
supreme court ruled out unanimous
ly. allowed farmers to retain their
lands for five years at a rental
^respite efforts of mortgage-holders
no foreclose. At the end of five
years it gave the fanner an oppor
tunity to satisfy the mortgage by
paying the newly-appraised value
of his property
Opening Left?
Associate Justice Brandeis. who
wrote the opinion, emphasized that
the fifth amendment commands
that, “however great the nation’s
need, private property shall not be
thus taken even for a wholly public
use without Just compensation.”
Some observers saw in one por
tion of the decision a possible oo
ening for new legislation to ac
complish the purpose of the act
bv another route. This read:
“If the public Interest requires
and permits the taking of property
of Individual mortgages In order to
relieve the necessities of individual
mortgagors, resort must be had to
proceedings by eminent domain; so
that through taxation the burden
of relief afforded in the public in
Merest may be borne by the public.”

canning Industry they will estab
lish- a factory which would manu
facture cans from tin plant* re
ceived bv boat.
