Average Net Worth Is Boosted By FHA Worth Is Increased During Loan Period Wow more than 11,000 families now farming successfully throughout the United States improred their farming efficiency and raised their average net worth by more than 50 percent by the time they repaid their farm operating loans to the farmers home administration is brought out in a report recently published by the agency. ' The progress report covers 12,431 families, who during fiscal 1955, completed repaying loans to operate farms or to make changes to more efficient systems of farming. — State farmers home administration director Hubert R. Alexander reported today on the progress made by the farm families in Indiana who repaid farm operating loans last year and who notr have gone to their local banks or cooperative credit sources for whatever further credit they needed to continue good farming. These families raised their annual gross cashrfarm income from approximately $3,123 to $4,914. Their, average jfet.worth rose from 16.335 to $8,756 during the time they were indebted to the farmers home administration. The average family had livestock and equipment valued at $2,658 when they first obtained their operating loan. When they settled up with the agency, their livestock and equipment inventory had gone up to approximately $5,798. About 22 percent of the families were owners or part owners of farms when they first borrowed, but 31 percent were in the ownership category by the time they' repaid their farm operating loans. Another 37 percent, mostly young couples just starting, were not farming as farm operators before receiving their loans. The farm families who paid up during fiscal 1955 and continued farming with other financing had been indebted to the farmers home administration for an average of 4.4 years.

Key Farm Provision Opposed By Benson Says Impossible Os Administration WASHINGTON (INS) — A key provision still in the senate farm bill which the adminiatratioii opposes concerns the processor's certification on prices paid to the producer. Agriculture secretary Ezra Taft Benson feels that this provision is impossible to administer, would be ineffective and would tend to defeat its purpose. The provision would require the secretary, when conducting ans support or surplus removal program through purchases, to obtain a certification from the processor that the producer was paid noj less than the support price or, in the absence of a support price, a fair price determined by the secretary. Benson feels that this provision | would cause widespread dissatisfaction among producers. Products purchased by the agriculture department in many cases are processed from milk< live animals, fruits and vegetables received from many producers. Prices paid to individual producers vary substantially by sea-

eons, location, quality, agb, alaaa or variety, as well aa hauling and other services performed. It’s Benson’s contention that it would be Impracticable to make equitable adjustments for these factors in support priqes or tn "fair prices" required to be named. He pointed out Tuesday in a statement submitted to the house agriculture committee that in many cases, the commodities sold by farmers move through several hands before they are processed and sold to the government Also, be said, it would deny the direct benefits of support to those farmers whose only outlets are processors who could not or would not certify that they bad paid the specified prices, and who would sell their processed products In the commercial market instead of to the government The provision, he emphasised, “could result in lower prices to those farmers and eauso wide* spread dissatisfaction.” Ban On Drag Racing Ordered By Judge Ban Is Announced By Richmond Judge RICHMOND, Ihd. (INS) -4tuniclpal judge James Ronald has announced a ban on "drag racing" in the Richmond area. He said many youths have been speeding at more than IM miles per hour on highways late at night in their automobiles and warned that jail sentences are in store for those convicted in the future.

Qne of the boys reported he entered the race “with reluctance", but just could not resist the taunts of other youngsters whd called him "chicken." Judge Ronald said: "This thing has got to be halted. It is a practice that hold* in store, If permitted to continue, death not only for the participants, but for Innocent persons using highways in a legal manner.”" ; Wayne county officials said they may be forced to put special pa-
