Amendment To Loan Act Beneficial Says Secretar Of Local Assiciation Benefits brought about by an amendment to the Federal Farm Loan act recently enacted by Congress, and effective July 1, will interest all farmers and ranchers in this locality, ac cording to Lyle P. Dierks, secre tary-treasurer of the Elkhorn Valley National Farm Loan As sociation at O’Neill, Nebr. "This new legislation per mits the Federal Land banks to loan up to 65 per cent of the nor mal agricultural value of farms and ranches,” said Mr. Dierks. ‘From the time the land bank system was organized in 1917 up to the present, the Federal Land banks were limited to a loan of fifty per cent of the appraised normal value of the land, plus twenty per cent of the permanent improvements. Land Bank Com missioner second-mortgage lunds were used to take care of any bor rower’s requirements over and above the maximum which the land bank could loan. “The new law will allow many farmers and ranchers to borrow the full amount they need from the, Federal Land bank at the low rate of four per cent without using Commissioner funds..’’ Mr. Dierks emphasized that the new legislation did not change the land bank’s policy of lending | on the basis of the normal long-j term earning power of the farm or ran (ill. “The land banks have found, from experience, that they can safely loan on the sixty-tive per cent basis. In addition to the advantage of the four per cent rate, the borrower has his land loan with only one cre’ditor,” he said Under the new law, Land Bank Commissioner loans will be con tinued until July 1, 1946, and can be made, as in the past, up to 75 per cent of the normal agricul tural value of the farm or ranch.. Veterans, however, may borrow Commissioner funds at four ppr cent if the loan is guaranteed under the C. I. Bill of Rights. , Secretary-treasurer D ie,rk s pointed out that the new law per-, mits the Federal Land baryta to, purchase Land Bank Commis sioner loans which have been rer, duced to a point where “they cun easily bo refinanced with a lower rate land bank loan.” He explained that better scr vice to new loan applicants is now possible through a simplifi cation of procedure which mater ially reduces loan closing time.

Patrol Traffic Tips Two Nebraska Safety Patrol men met a model A Ford road ster .equipped with side curtains, driving all over the highway. The two patrolmen stopped the car and expecting to find an in toxicated driver, asked the driver to get out ojf the car. They could hardly believe their own eyes, when not alone the driver but also five other boys climbed out of the car. The driver was sober but he lacked the proper control of the car. The old saying “Two’s com pany—three’s a crowd” is partic ularly appropriate to front seat riding. In emergency the driver needs freedom of action for the brakes and also free arm move ment for controlling the steer ing wheel. Nebraska Safety Patrol.
