FSA Denies Loans
To Tenant Farmers
Dadeville, Ala ?With the termina
tion of the Government's "disaster
loan" program some 300 tenant fam
ilies in Tallapoosa County, Alabama
who have experienced three years
of short crops and low prices, state
that they face migration unless they
can get credit for food and other
crops.
In an appeal to the Secretary of
Agriculture, Claude Wickard, for
remedial action, they report that ap
plications to local officials of the FSA
have been rejected. The reason giv
en by FSA officials is that the ten
ants still owe payments on their dis
aster loans.
The tenants, however, assert that
large landlords desirous of main
taining a supply of cheap wage la
bor in the neighborhood are dictat
ing local policy. They state that their
seed loan applications are rejected
because landlords refuse to waive
priority on claims for rent and that
tenants owing only $10 or less on dis
aster loans have been refused credit -
by the FSA.
