Rural Development and Trade Aims Across Rural Texas
The Rural Development Act of 1972 seeks to boost rural living by expanding FHA and Soil Conservation Service authority, offering loans for rural residents to start businesses, and aiding water and pollution projects. It ties in municipal finance, two way trade with Mexico, and supports urban benefit through rural growth. A toll free job info line is opened to six border counties. A San Benito school walk fundraiser supports Project Concern with student participation and praise for local youth.
