PROGRESS IS MADE BY NEW FARM BOARD Federal Committee Tackles Job With Energy; Off to Good Start. B'l Scrinne-lfotrard V. i ruptf'-r Ulinnr-, WASHINGTON. Aug. 23.—1n the six weeks of its existence the federal farm board has tackled its problem with the same energy that farmers ■ are giving to the harvesting of their crops. The board, authorized by the spe- ; cial session ot congress is making headway in its task and, in the opin- j ion of members of congress, is off to a good start. The board has agreed to loan £300,000 to Florida citrus fruit grow'- j ers to equip, immediately, certain I citrus fruit packing plants in Florida with heating and precooling facili- ; ties, to enable the growers to meet; government regulations in controll- ! ing the Mediterranean fruit fly! and thus to get this year’s crop to j the market. Give Aid to California It was agreed to extend aid to California iarm organizations en- j gaged in marketing, raising and i ether grapes. In co-operation with | California banks, the board has agreed to furnish the Sun-Maid raisin growers a credit ot $9,000,030 ; on the 1929 raisin crop. Since 90 per | rent of American grown grapes are j produced in California, the board | feels that this action will have a: stabilizing effect on grape crops produced in Ohio. New York and! elsewhere. The board has agreed to advance j as much as necessary to southern cotton co-operative associations to assist in moving this year’s crop. These associations now are able to obtain from federal intermediate credit banks 65 per cent of the value of their cotton. The board agrees to advance an additional 25 per cent, making 9 per cent in all from federal agencies. The effect of this will be to enable co-operatives to settle immediately with farmers in need of money, without actually forcing the cotton on the market, and thereby depressing prices. Study Wheat Problem The board also is giving its at- j tention to the wheat and other grain crop situations, and although no di- | rcct loans have been made yet to j grain crop co-operatives, the actual ! organization of the board in Wash- | ington has had the effect, it is be- ; lieved. of stimulating prices. During its six weeks the board ; has heard spokesmen for forty va- j rious marketing groups. These hear- | ings have presented to the board ! a composite picture of the agricul- j tural situation in the United States.! Hearings have been temporarily ad- j journed and they have been sue-1 ceeded by daily conferences on the j questions presented. Meanwhile, also, the board in per- j fecting its machinery, and in or- ! ganizing its staffs of experts, its loan division ot experts and ap- j praisers who will will pass on re- j quests for assistance, and its legal I division.
