RAI,F.M, Ore., March 2,1. State
Treasurer. Kay anltL.todsy that the
withdrawal of nhout '1.750,000 of
slato funds from Oregon hntika for
the payment nf Interest on bonds anil
the retirement of honda April 1 will
lo mainly from rorllnnd and western
Oregon hanks. Withdrawal from east
cm Oregon banks will he very light
due to stringent financial conditions in
that part of tho atato nnd the fact
I hat many eastern Oregon bnnka have
an added burden In assisting farmers
lo finance the reseeding of crops aa
a result of the freete of the past win
ter. Mr. Kay said that applications of
tha farmer for loana from the state
for reaeeding purposes are lighter
than expected under the relief act of
the lll'J," legislature,' totaling only
nhout ,100,000 to date. Tbla la due
largely, It la said, to tha complication
in ohlnining tha loana. It Is necessary
for the farmers to give the state firat
mortgage on the growing crops and
to do this they have to obtain releases
of other mortgages and liens, which Is
being done through the local banks.
