Be correctly corseted in an Artist Model by Ethel wyn B Hoffmann PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 8. (AP) Heavy migration of farm settlers from the middle west Is creating a serious relief and employment situa tion, a resettlement administration report aald today, "When well located, new families are making a success, but unless the farm Itself can supply their needs, they must seek employment off tho 'rn," said Walter A. Duffy, regional director, "A large percentage of the new settlers are seeking work In competition with our workers and many of them are going on relief." , Many Hellef Cases ( Duffy said relief cases among the newcomers range from 13 per cent In well-settled areas up to 00 per cent In some poor farming com munities. He estimated that not over 25 per cent of the settlers had been able to buy farms already In operation. The bulk of the new settlement Is In the Willamette valley and south ern Oregon, aald the report. Duffy reported out that cutover timber land, of which much la be ing purchased, usually requires heavy clearing. Furthermore, he said, much of the land la not good soil and Is far from market and labor oppor tunities. The net result, In his opinion, Is that many of the settlers will be forced on relief while counties will maintain schools, roads and other services In the Isolated regions. Long Term Loans Aid Duffy said the resettlement ad ministration wm endeavoring to aid newcomers with long term loans where It was felt such loans would be of benefit both to the family and the community. Land optioning haa been complet ed on a set-up of new farma In Yamhill, W Mi t iiR ton and Polk coun ties, all of which will be fertile, well eaulDDed and of adequate size. This project was designed primarily for local needs, however, so no pref erence will be given to out-of-state famine. Duffy said additional aid was com ing from county agents and cham bers of commerce In the form of In formation to settlers concerning soil types, klnda of farming usually found successful In alee of farma necessary. Federal land bank officials are also co-operating In arranging reasonable terms for farms they are selling. Governor To Astoria SALEM, Bept. 3.
