Straub urges FHA low interest loans Govenor Bob Straub has called on the Farmer's Home Admisistration to designate all of Oregon as eligible for low-interest federal loans to help agri-cultural producers who have suffered an estimat ed $70 million in losses in the last four weeks of rainfall. The formal request to Ken Kuedell, state director of the Farmer's Home Administra tion, specifically requests the agency to provide low-interest loans for producers who have suffered actual losses, or who have to rearrange their debt load to compensate for the effects of rain on their late harvests. The grain industry, the Govenor emphasized, is hard est hit with a projected loss of $52.5 million throughout the state. "The Oregon grain harvest this year was expected to set an all-time record, and now that rainfall and excessive moisture has hit our grain producing counties we forsee a 30 per cent loss," the Govenor said. Surveys taken by the State Department of Agriculture in recent days indicate that heavy losses also would be felt in the late-maturing perennial grass and legume seed crops ($6 million); mint ($4 mil lion); loss of quality in hay production ($2 million); and in some late-maturing row crop seed fields. Wine grape grow ers, some fruit producers and others who grow vegetables for processing also are feeling the effects of four weeks of rains which have left soil and crops soggy. "The surveys taken throu ghout the state are of great concern, and in some crops, the damage could go much higher if the weather does not shift to allow harvesting. Some varities still in the field are past the point of quality production. The situation is such that a formal disaster designation is an essential option for our agricultural producers," Straub said. Cake decorating Wednes day, 7 p.m., lone High, home-ec room.
