New Fund Plan Available At Bank Marion county farmers who have federal land bank loans not only can protect their future, but make a profitable - investment by paying in to a new future pay ment fund plan inaugurated by the bank, J. J. Sechrist, Salem, secretary-treasurer of the Nation al Farm Loan association serving Marion county, announced this week. In addition, Sechrist said, such funds will make a real con tribution to national defense. Such future payment funds are deposits against future loan In stallments and interest, Secrist said. They are designed specific ally to protect the farmer against future lean years. Such funds will not be applied on the loan until the farmer so instructs the land bank, unless by some mischance he is unable to make his regular payments, in which case the de posit would be applied automat ically. Future payment funds will draw interest at the same rate the farmer pays on his mortgage loan, Sechrist explained. "A future payment fund created by farmers under this plan will increase the amount available for the federal land back to invest in government securities," he pointed out "That means that while the farmer is protecting his farm and home for the future, and while his investment is earning a good rate of interest, his money at the same time will be doing service for national defense through rein vestments by the land bank."
