Tentative questions of doubt and assurances that everything was as it should be came from members of Congress today as they considered looking further into the 11,000 loans h Reconstruction Corporation made in the first five months it was at work. Until the voluminous report could be studied thoroughly, nothing was likely to happen so far as an inves- tigation was concerned. But there was, meanwhile, both criticism and defense of the facts surrounding the 1,155,000,000 the Corporation told the House it authorized from Feb. through July 20 last year. For instance, Representative Howard (D., Neb.), author of the resolution that brought the report on loans prior to the time they were made public in monthly statements, looked askance at the $64,498,000 that went to the San Francisco Bank of America. Said he to newspapermen:
Hits Foreign Syndicate Loan "It seems strange that the Corporation should make a $64,000,000 loan to syndicate of foreigners and want to keep it secret while farmer who borrows $200 for crop production is blacklisted and his loan posted throughout his country. still see no reason to make fish of the farmer and beautifully feathered fowls of the big foreign borrowers He said he had been "abused" because he insisted that the loans approved in the five months should be made public instead of being given only to members of Congress. Jesse H. Jones, a Corporation director, yesterday asked Howard to publicize the report on the ground that it would damage the borrowing institutions. But Howard and Speaker Garner -the latter largely responsible for the fact that loans made after July 21 already have been published-refused to yield. They denied that any harm would result.
Loans According To Law In the Senate, Couzens (R. Mich.), told newspapermen he had not had time to study the report thoroughly but knew of no reason why he should change his previous opinion that the loans were made in accordance with law. Couzens was Chairman of a Special Senate Committee that investigated these same loans. It reported that while it could not see the collateral since that was on deposit at Federal Reserve Banks throughout the country, it found nothing to indicate deviations from the law. The Corporation's report showed that of the $1,195,000,000 pledged, $722,456,000 had gone to financial institutions and $224,000,000 to raila d Financial institutions throughout the country up to Jan. 6, 1933, had paid back $228,162,000 and railroads $11,722,000. Total repayments were $267,532,000. Among the larger loans were $90,000,000 to the Dawes Chicago Central Republic Bank and Trust Co.: $30,000,000 to the Bank of Italy Mortgaging Company of San Francisco; $20,000,000 to the Prudence Company of New York; $27,500,000 to the Pennsylvania Railroad; $25,500,000 to the Baltimore and Ohio, and $17,100,000 to the MissouriPacific.
