FARM-DEBT ADJUSTMENT , BODY ACTIVE (Continued Frum Page One) records made public by County Agent II. i. Avery, who lias 'served as seo relary of th group. Those who have served on the com mittee, all without pay, are: E. H. DeLong. Merrell Conley,. T. B. John son, A. K. Porker and Charles Bean. Working without legal status, though part of a state -and nation wide set-up of state and county com mittees to assist in farm-debt adjust ment, this committee has In Union county, assisted 14 creditors and debtors to get together, conducted six hearings on caucs, and has to date brought about four agreements involving $34,000 where debtors and creditors alone were unable to reach satisfactory settlement. Creditors have la many cases taken material discounts on mortgages and accounts. Frequently all Indebtedness has been lumped together and covered by a new loan from the Federal Land bank at Spokane, thus effecting consider able saving in Interest and giving more time to meet obligations. . In carrying out its work the com mittee usually determines flnit about how much can be obtained as a loan from the federal land bank or as a commissioners loan, or both. The farmer and his creditors are then brought together for conference with the committee, at which time the se cured creditors are asked for an ad justment and the unsecured creditors share the discount necessary in order that all 'may be cared for under the new loan. The committee in this county has encountered a fine spirit of co-operation -frou? the many creditors, which are chiefly .insurance companies and banks, says County Agent Avery, Even where mortgage loans were fully secured, the holders have shown a rinstrA tn iiAirrttlfttA fnr BPttlpmpnk mt.liftt tVtnn tji fnrpplosa. Rv nrrv Idl ing the machinery for such negotia tion, the committee has, beeni able to prevent a considerable number of farmers from, losing their places. One result of the debt adjustment work has been the cleaning up of considerable delinquent tax accounts. The federal land bank loans obtained carry an Interest rat of five per cent, with the principal payments amortiz ed and not starting until three years after the loan Is made. The commis sioner's loans arc to ba paid off In 10 equal installments, starting la three years.
