Lambert Entertains Ladies at Dinner; Soldier Makes Visit Credit Program To Help Farmers Vastly broadened credit assist ance to farmers to help them meet their 1943 Food-for-Freedom goals was announced recently by George A. Nelson, county agent and mem ber of the Columbia county USDA war board. Authorization will be given the county war board to recommend loans which will be made through the regional agricultural credit cor- poration of Washington, D. C., a federal agency supervised by the farm credit administration. The loan will be made locally through a county loan representative who will be designated by the war board to act for the corporation. Mr. Nelson points out that this new program gives every county producer assurance of an immediate source of credit for the fullest ut- i|ization of .his farming facilities Loan Basis Told Loans will be made on the basis of the amount needed to do the production job. However, these loans will be made only if they will en able borrowers to engage in or in crease their production of needed agricultural commodities. The county agent said that the new program is not a substitute for other sources of credit, nor is it intended to compete with other lenders. Its purpose is to supplement such other sources of credit where needed. Each producer is urged to obtain his financial requirements, if possible, from other sources. Such sources, he explained, include local banks, production credit associations the emergency crop and feed loan section of the farm credit adminis tration and the farm security ad ministration. One Season to Term Loans under the new program wilt be for one agricultural season. But renewals may be granted under proper circumstances. Interest will be at five per cent. Collateral will be first liens on the commodities, livestock, or other items. being fi- ryanced. The county war board is now awaiting full instructions for the handling of these loans, and will announce when applications will be accepted as soon as information is received.
