Farm debt adjustment committees
now organized in every county in
Oregon, are already being highly ef
fective in bringing debtors and cred
itors together on a basis agreeable to
both, according to reports made by
county debt adjustment commiütees
to Oregon Agricultural Advisory
council and the College Agricultural
Extension service.
The mere presence of these vol
untary debt adjustment committeeeee
is proving a bulwark of public sen
timent against severe actions by
debtors and creditors in a time of
emergency. Such was the case to a
certain extent with the fust system
of voluntary committees last year
This year the committees are still
stronger, and while still without legal
status, they have tibe sanction and
support of the state and national
officials Including the Farm Credit
administration.
Early reports show that most of
the cases that are laid before the
committee may be settled by the dhair
man or secretary of the county com
mittee alone by merely analyzing the
situation and pointing out to both
debtor and creditor the possible ad-
justments in principle, interest rates,
payments or other features of the
debt. A small percentage must be
heard by the entire committee, and
a few find their way to «She state
committee- In all cases common sense
is the first and most important rule
of procedure, according to members
of the state committee.
The volume of work this year is ex
pected to be many times as large as
last year, hence every effort is be
ing made to lighten the burden of the
committee members who work with
out compensation. County agents can
assist in giving out information, hav-
ing blanks filled out, and arranging
for hearngs, though the committees
alone are responsible for decisions-
