r There never was more need for
a stable agriculture as well as
stable economy in all business
than there is today, Dr. G. Bur
ton Wood, head of the depart
ment of agricultural economics
at Oregon State College, told
members of the Willamette Na
tional Farm Loan Association at
their annual meeting Saturday at
Marion HoteL Some 175 members
attended.
One of the main issues for the
farmer in the years to come is
that he decide, Dr. Wood said.
what he wants in the line of an
agricultural program . and how
much government is to be in
volved in the picture. Dr. Wood
said he believed that the year
1953 presented an open, under
standing debate of the farm issue
and that all citizens should take
a viewpoint regarding agriculture
that will be beneficial for the
farmer, consumer and business
man. The farm problem no longer
involves only the farmer, but the
laborer, the consumer and the
businessman as welL ' ' .
Financial Report
Fred Muhs, president of the
Association, call est the meeting to
order at 10:30 .a.m. and J. J.
Sechrist, secretary-treasurer, gave
the financial report as well as a
brief historical sketch of the
growth of the organization, (
Sechrist explained that many
changes had been made' in the
Land . Bank system since its be
ginning up to 1945 when six as
sociations, formerly serving Sa
lem area, consolidated and joined
forces on March 1 of that year.
He pointed out that the present
financial stability of the associa
tion with respect to reserves for
losses, was much greater and
more secure now than in 1945.
The loan volume in 1945 amount
ed to $2,356,000 as compared to
the low of $1,799,000 in 1947, arid
a balance of $3,020,000 as of Dec.
31, 1953. 1
Property Tax f
Sechrist said that one of the
major problems confronting farm
ers in the present price-cost
squeeze is the real estate tax
problem. Taxes have tripled in
some cases the 1940 figure with
the result that the present annual
tax payment is larger than the
installments on farm loans, he
said. ;
The association, Sechrist i went
on, closed 71 new loans in 1953,
with 74 being Tetired but with a
net gain of $179,200. f
Ralph Otis, Newberg, and Rob
ert Mitchell, Perrydale, were re
elected to three year terms on the
board of directors.
After adjournment of the meet
ing the board of directors held
its annual election of officers
with Muhs re-elected to the presi
dency; Ralph Otis to vice-president;
J. J. Sechrist, secretary
treasurer, and Carroll R. Nelson
as assistant secretary-treasurer.
