Fred MllliS Was re-elected president of the Willamette Na tional Farm Loan Association at its annual meeting held Satur day at the Marion Hotel. Ralph Otis was elected vice firesident, J. 3. Secltrist, seCre-ary-treastlrer, and Carroll R. Nelson, assistant to Sechrist. The officers together with C. E. Lewis, Fred Dicklnan and Ro bert Mitchell comprise the board of directors. Otis and Mitchell had been elected to a three-yenr term at the morning session. Sechrist, addressing the meet ing, said that from the beginning of the association up to 11)45, when six associations in- the Willamette area had consolidat ed, many changes had been made In the Land Bank system. This brought greater finahcial stability, he said, with respect to reserves for losses which are much greater than in 1P45. The loan volume in that year, he said, was $2,536,000, compared to a low of $1,799,000 in 1947 and a balance of $3,020,000 at the end of 1953. Sechrist presented one of the major problems faced by the farmers In what he termed the present price-cost smiceze, name ly the real estate tax problem. In some cases, ho said, taxes have tripled the 1940 figure "with the result that the present annual tax payment is larger than the Installments on loans on the farms. This tax problem is now the major factor in he .present delinquency account list in the Salem office as well as other association offices in the State." 1 Sechrist said the association closed 71 new loans in 1933 and tellred 74, but With a net gain of $179,200; , Dr. G. Burton Wood, head of the Department of Agricultural Economics at Oregon State Col lege, pave the main address. Speaking of problems of the farmer, the labor-consumer, and the business man, "There Is," he said, " a neces sity for a stable agriculture as well as a stable economy, and one of the main issues for the farmer in tfle years to come is that he will havo to decide where he Wants to go and what he wants ill the way of a farm program as well as how much government is to bo Involved in agriculture, and Whether he Will follow a program that will lead to abundance of scarcity." He stressed that all citizens should take a stand regarding agriculture that will be good for the farmer, the consumer and the business man.
