Local and federal moves on conservation and electrification
Washington AP reports soil and water conservation districts lead in moving decision making from Washington to local levels with broad participation. Hardin cites 3,000 districts and 15,000 volunteers, urging expansion of local service and programs. Also AP notes REA loans totalling 9.77 million dollars fund 778 miles of lines and seven miles of transmission to 15 borrowers in 11 states. Finally farm food costs fell 1.6 percent in Q4 1970, with market basket value at 1214 dollars annually and farmer returns down 7 percent from Q3.
