FSA Extends Farm Tenant
Program To New Counties
?? ^
AH Counties Eligible for
Tenant Purchase
Loans :
Every county in North Carolina I
will receive loans to help farm ten- J
ants become owners under the j
Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act, J
according1 to information received I
here by FSA Supervisor Z. T. I
Koonce, from the State Director of I
the Farm Security Administration, I
Vance E. Swift
Blanketing the entire state, fifty
new counties were designated by I
Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. I
Wallace upon the advice of the State I
Advisory Committee.
"The FSA has helped 389 tenants!
in North Carolina to become J ana
owners during the past two years,'" I
Mr. Koonce said. "Congress, in its!
battle to keep the American farmer j
on his farm, appropriated $40,000,-1
000 recently to be used under the!
provisions of the Bankhead-Jones I
Farm Tenant Act to help stop the!
alarming trend " from farm owner- I
ship to tenancy."
These loans are made for a 40-year I
period at three per cent interest 1
However, the act provides that after j
five years payment in full can be
made at any time. Under a variable j
payment plan farmers may make
larger payments in good years with!
smaller payments due in years of j
partia crop failure or low prices.
Mr. Koonce said repayment ofl
these loans all over the United
States is reniarkable with borrowers
repaying 136 per cent of maturities.!

Among the interesting exhibits
that will be seen at the Seventh
World's Poultry Congress in Cleve
land, Ohio, July 28-August 7 is a
"Talking Turkey" that gives a lec
ture on nutrition of turkeys.
C. P. Parrish, extension poultry

thousands of North Carolinians have
made arrangements to attend the
Congress. A number of them will
have birds on exhibit and in the
contests.
Parrish is secetary of the North
Carolina Committee for the Poultry

six teams of 4-H Club members who
will represent the State in the youth
division of the exposition. Three
of the teams are white boys and
girls from Johnston, Durham, and
Guilford counties; the other three
are Negro teams from Alamance,
Wilson, and Hertford counties.
The Durham and Wilson groups
will compete in judging contests
while the other teams will partici

showing the production of poultry
and its preparation for consumption.
Parrish says that other interest
ing phases of the Congress will in

grooms, hens from Chile that lay
blue eggs, Japanese chickens with
tails 17 feet long, Canadian Mount
ed Police doing their famous drill

of band music, carrier pigeons de
livering messages for the .U. S. Ar
my, and 7,000 birds competing for
blue ribbons.
North Carolina will have a large
exhibit at the Congress. It has been
designed to show a cross-section of
the poultry industry in the State
and the advantages offered prospec
tive poultry-raisers.

Changes
Washington, July 19. ? Acting
Chairman Ramspeck (D-Ga.) of the;
House Labor Committee named a
Sub-committee today to confer with
Elmer Andrews, wage-hour admin
istrator, and Representative Barden
(D-N.C.) in an effort .to work out
compromise amendments to the
wage-hour law,
' Barden is the author, of amend
ments which Andrewg has estimated
would exempt from the act 1,000,000
workers in the agricultural field an<T
up to 400,000 "white collar" workers.
President Roosevelt contended
yesterday that approval of the
amendments would sanction uncon
scionably low wages for 2,000,000 of
&e poorest paid industrial workers.
vAt the close of an jjBtftutive .ses
sion -of the labor committee today,
"This subcommittee must sit down
with Andrews and Barden to see if

theory is that if wpW going to get

I cers of the International Committee
on Refugees to meet, him in a two
I day conference at the White House
I the first week in September.
I The invitation was conveyed to
I representatives of Britain, France,
I Brazil, Argentina, and The Nether
J lands by Myron C. Taylor, the Amor
I ican delegate, at a meeting of the
1 committee in the Locarno room of
I the foreign office,
j Officers of the committee come
J from the five countries and the
J United States. Acceptance of the
j invitation is expected as soon as the
I officers obtain approval of their gov
j ernments. j !;
j The year-old committee owes its
(inception largely to the America*
| President's initiative. In response to
| his summons it met and organized at
| Evian-Les-Baines, France, July 7,
11938. |
| Its principal efforts then were in
(finding refuge for Jews and others
(fleeing from Austria after the art
J nexation by Germany. Since most
(of Czecho- Slovakia also was absorb
(ed into the Reich, the committee's
| efforts have been extended' to that
region.
| Besides the Roosevelt invitation
there were two other inportant de
velopments in connection with the
j committee's meeting.
First, the unusn goreiomepi of
fered to take the lead in devising
a scheme under which the 80 par
i
ticipating governments would con
tribute by direct grants of money to
the expense of transporting and main
taining refugees.
Second, the committee approved a
plan to form within a few days a
I private, rion-sftetarian organisation to
I be known as "the co-ordinating foun
dation," to co-ordinate the work of
fexistxng refugee Organisations.
Committee officers expected to sit
in the White House- conference are
Sir Herbert Emegson, director, and
Lord Winterton, chairman, both of
Great Britain.
"The co-ordinating' foundation" is
to have a-capital of about $936,000
and to be controlled by a council
whose American members are ex
pected to include Dr. Bufus Jones,
