Senator Burrow Delivers Record of Grants to South Dakota
Senator W J Bulow reports federal agencies have poured about 260 million dollars into South Dakota since March 1933. The figures, compiled through 1936, cover loans to farmers, housing loans, Civil Works Administration, CCC expenditures, commodity credits, public works, bank loans, and emergency relief. He argues much funds were secured on security and produced worthwhile improvements, while relief sums exceed local tax contributions.
