settlement Aids Farmers ■ In Furnishing Essentials [intent of Credit I Part In Complex Pro of Development '»Mott: There are no more ien, no great new areas on to settle and expand. We me our land wisely, because out land means an impover-j jgople. This is the third of a. of four articles by Rexford Tugwell, describing what the dement Administration is do : to conserve our natural and hu resources.) ACRES AND MEN Rexford G. Tugwell, j Resettlement Administration III. rought, soil erosion, floods £ist storms take their toll iatically, and make it plain in some areas farming t to be effectively discour and efforts made to con ePsoil resources, as well as , oil and timber resour while in other areas, fami • should be assisted in relo ting in more fertile sections. Less dramatic, but equally oductive of suffering, is the iavy burden of debt which the ng years of farm depression ive piled upon the farmer’s usl^Millions of American far ers need some kind of aid and lidance if they are to survive, hey must be given help to ard the development of effi penfc farm management prac ices, and wnere necessary, nn mcial assistanc to offset losses nd debts incurred in recent ears, so that they may be tak n off and kept off the relief oils and made self-supporting. To meet this need is the aim i the rehabilitation phase of toe Resettlement Administra ion program. An effort is made o reestablish the credit of the mpoverished farmer by extend ngffhim small loans ranging mywhere from $50 to $600 Juch loans are made for the mrchase of necessary farm iupplies, livestock, household leefis, feed, seed, fertilizer, for >ayment of rent, taxes, and for ood, and are adequately se cured. But the work of the Resettle ment Administration does not stop with the making of the loan. The farmer can also get help and advice in managing his farm. The county agricul tural agent and the county re habilitation supervisor meet with him to talk over the prob lems on his own particular farm. Together they decide which crops to plant, and how analiy acres of each will make the best ratio. They work out a program for the year’s work and plan a budget so that no money will be foolishly wasted. At the same time plans for the house and home are work ed out jointly by the farm wife and a woman representative of the Resettlement Administra tion. Advice and counsel through this branch of the home will in many instances prove to be of utmost import ance to the future welfare of the family. At this point it may be ask ed what can be done for a far mer already heavily in debt. Voluntary committees, called ;K$rm Debt Adjustment Com mittees, have been organized for this very purpose. The com mittee arranges a meeting be tween debtor and creditor and tries to have the debt scaled down, or to secure more time for the debtor to meet his obli gation or to reduce the interest rate. This service is available in every county of the United States to those farmers who are in debt and threatened with foreclosure. With this program for help ing destitute farmers to become re-established on their own farms by lending them money, working out farm management 'plans, and helping them scale down their debts, the Resettle-] went Administration reaches a large number of families who are thus added to the growin number of prudent, self-sui porting farmers. More tha 1>D,000 farm families, or 3,000 000 people, are now being hell ed under the rehabilitation pr< gram.
