Mississippi land auctions hit farmers hard in 1930s downturn
The Jackson correspondent of the Associated Press reports that state land auctions during a severe tax recession touched off by high taxes and plummeting farm values. Seventy four sheriffs conducted sales affecting nearly 39,900 farms and tens of thousands of acres, with about one quarter of the state's lands going under the hammer. The piece notes massive economic strain, mortgage foreclosures, and calls for relief measures as communities report widespread distress among homeowners and tenants.
