Crop Prospects
May Lessen Cost
Relief Grants
Pi rector of Security Administration
Thinks Many Farm Relief Cases
Can Be Dropped.
LINCOLN, May 11 (UP) Im
proved crop prospects should result
i'.i a material reduction in the num
l. r of relief grants made to Ne
braska farmers during May, L. A.
White, state director of the security
administration announced today.
"With milk production up and
need for fuel decreasing:, many farm
families who have been receiving
grants will bp able to get along on
their cream checks," he said.
"Crop and moisture conditions over
the entire state are probably better
than at any time during the past
five years."
His report for April showed 1,221
leans were approved in the amount
of $412,087. Repayments numbered
40:1 aggregating $52,119. The grant
load during the month was 13,602
and an average grant of $16.04.
White said supplemental loans
were necessary for the following rea
rt.ns: Many farmers need to purchase
horses replacing thore lost ty sleep
ing sk-kness, large acreages going
into drouth resistant feed crops now
jvstifying supplemental loans for
purchase of additional milk cows
where needed to improve farm enter
prise and an almost complete loss of
both cash and feed crops in large
;. rcas of the state last year means
that fa r!iiers must have money for
operating expenses until the next
crop is harvested.

photographic technician. He says he
knows better.
"Point a camera at a man's face,"
he says, "and you get one kind of
characterization of him. 'Shoot' him
from the floor, and you get quite an
other. "Further a photograph and the
story it tells may be altered by
'touching up.'
"There was a time when it was
thought the camera didn't lie. But
we know better now. We know the
photographer. Hue the reporter, must
convey the facts to us honestly, oi
we do not get a true picture of what
we would have seen 'f we were there."
