Wiftosboro ProdwtiMi Credit
Asaociati(m Loans Total
Columbia, S. O., June 18.—
Farmers of Alleghany, Ashe,
Caldwell, Surry, Wilkes, War
tauga and 'fadkln counties bor
rowed a total of 118,895 from
Jan. 1 to June 1 through the
Wilkesboro^ Production Credit
Association; according to figures
released by the ftirm Credit Ad
ministration of Columbia. ’The
loans were made to a total of
134 farmers, the average loan
ibelng $146.98.
In the four states served by
the Farm Credit Administration
ol Columbia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia and
Florida, over $7,000,000 was
borrowed by 28,120 farmers. An
additional $450,000 is being ad
vanced to farmers who are ob
taining their loans In a series of
Installments during the season.
The spring seasonal demand
for crop production loans has
now passed Its peak and a larg
er proportion cl the farmers bor
rowing from the associations are
obtaining loans for general agri
cultural purposes, such as for
purchasing work-stock, equip
ment and machinery, and for fi
nancing repairs and improve
ments. This trend towards gen
eral purpose loans is reflected In
the gradual increase in the size
of the average loan.
Farmers borrowing from these
newly organized, short - term
credR institutions partially own
ed and operated by the borrow
ers, are effecting a considerable
saving on interest charges, which
are now at the rate of 5 per cent
a year, charged on an annual
basis and collected at maturity
of the loan. Thus, a farmer bor
rowing $500 for a year would
pay $25 interest on a loan for 12
months, while a farmer borrow
ing the same amount for six
months would pay only $12.50
interest, or if the loan was for
three months, $6.25.

gasoline tanks killed at least six
persons, police estimated, and

of a fireman, were recovered.

believed killed in the second and
third explosions.

voto thafciflssipsd awiy We of thei
obstaslsB' to adiourattepti tbs
senate late today completed eon-:
gresslonai action on a bill to
help fanners straighten out the
debt tangles that have bpnnd up
their farms in mortgagee. .
.The vote ended a filibuster,
that had been threatenedby
Senator Huey Long, of Louisiana
I and sent the bill to the White
I Honse.
A little earlier, Long had turn
ed detective to raise a hne and
cry that resulted in the speedy
discovery o t missing papers
whose loss bad threatened to
sidetrack the hill.
The papers were lost “some
where” on the honse side but
they turned up again after the
Louisiana Democrat indicated
plainly there would be little pro
gress toward adjournment nntil
the documents were found.'*
As suddenly as ■ It had vanish
ed, the conference report on the
debt hill and accompanying da
ta reappeared. ’The house ap
proved the report.
The proposal—If approved by
the President—will provide a
virtual six year moratorium on
farm indebtedness.
Tlhe proposal, brought for
ward In the senate by Senator
Frazier, Re$>nhlican, North Da
kota, probably goes further than
any other hill designed to help
the farmer scale down his debts,
or to give him a breathing spell
in which to accumulate money to
pay them.
Under the plan, a farmer seek
ing relief may apply to concili
ation courts established during
the Hoover administration.
He may, however, apply to the
federal courts to be adjudged a
bankrupt if his creditors refuse
to authorize a scaling down of
his debts, or If the reduction is
unsatisfactory to him.
In that event, the court must
appoint appraisers to determine
"the fair market value” of the
' property,
May Reclaim Property
If the creditors accept that
fair market value appraisal, the
farmer Is given six years to “re
buy” his property at an interest
rate which begins at 1 per cent
annually and mounts to five
within four years.
But if a creditor objects to
this arrangement, the court is
authorized to declare a mora
torium for six years. The farm
er will occupy the property for
that period, paying the rental
value which the court fixes.
This rental will be divided
among the creditors as would
the payments, should Ik be
agreed to let the farmer repur
chase his property.
Senator Frazier, Republican,
North Dakota, said that at the
end of the moratorium period
the farmer could repossess his
property or if creditors disa
greed, the first fair market valu

Mrs. Jessie Martin of San

has discovered the right, safe
way to reduce—read her letter:
“I have taken Krnschen Salts
a month and find great benefit.
I have lost 14 lbs. in that time
and would lose more if I stuck
to a diet as I should. I take them
every morning regular and hop'*
others will profit by thnn as I
have.”
We have letters from men and
women who have lost as much as
100 pounds of fat—from people
who have reduced high blood
pressure—from folks who have
no more bloating or shortness of
breath.
Kruschen helps stomach, liver,
bowels to function properly—in
creases physical attractiveness i
all while losing unhealthy fat. 1
