Measures to speed up and furth
er Improve Farmers Home Ad
ministration services to farmers
have recently been developed in
Washington under the direction
of Secretary Benson, Horace J.
Isenhower, State Director at Ral
eigh. North Carolina, said today. .
Mr. Isenhower had Just return
ed from a meeting at Atlanta,
Georgia, where the new steps to
decentralize and streamline agen
cy operations were explained by
Washington officials. Vance E.
Swift, Chief FO Operations; A. E.
Rozar, Chief PL Operations;
Ralph W. Turner, Farm Manage
ment Specialist; and State Field
Representatives Paul Laughrun,
W. Bryan Oliver, Marion C. Hol
land and Dennis H. Sutton of the
North Carolina State Office Staff
also attended the meeting.
In accordance with Secretary
Benson's policy of placing more
control of agricultural programs
in local hands, many oi the decis
ions formerly made in state offic
es will now be made in the coun
ties. County Supervisors, the em
ployees who deal directly with the
farmers, will have final approval
on a larger number of loans and
will have more authority in work
ing with other creditors and in
taking steps to help borrowers
solve their financial and farming
problems.
Greater Use will be made of
state and county committees.
New state committees, to be ap
pointed in the near future, will be
called upon frequently to review
agency operations and make sure
they are efficiently serving local
,teed3. County committeemen will
he relied upon to an even greater
extent than in the past to help
adapt national policies to local
needJ.
Services of other public and pri
vate organisations will be used to
the maximum extent possible.
County home demonstration
agents will help Farmers Home
Administration borrowers with
their family living problems.
Every possble step will be taken
to make sure that no government
funds are advanced when private
or cooperative credit is available
to meet the needs. Lenders will be
urged to supply funds for insured
farm ownership loans.
A number of improvements
were discussed at the meetings
that will place more authority in
the hands of county supervisors,
make the program easier to op
erate. and enable the agency to
serve more farmers than in the
past. Most of these revisions are
already in the hands of field em-1
plovees and will soon be in full ef
fect.
To expedite real estate loan
making the engineering and ap
praisal services of the agency j
will be placed in county offices,
closer to the farmers to be served
Engineer-appraisers were former
ly stationed in state offices.
Practically all property insur
ance matters have been transfer
red from state to county offices.
The agency's emergency loan
program was stressed at the meet
ings. State Directors and their
staffs were told to move into an
area whenever a drought or a
flood strikes and when the crisis
has passed to move out again
quickly as possible.
None of the basic policies under
which the agency operates are
being changed. The same amount
of emphasis is placed on helping
farmers obtain adequate land and
equipment resources, develop
good systems of farming, and a
dopt proper farm and home man
agement practices.
