Congress Reinstates Farm Disaster Loans Amid Freeze
Congressman Harold T. Johnson told the Northern Sacramento Valley RC&D Council that the Emergency Loan Program for disaster relief has been reinstated. Tehama County farmers hit by the 1972 March freeze may apply for 1 percent loans with 5,000 forgiveness from May 1 to May 8, then 5 percent loans with no forgiveness after. He warned of funding cuts for Soil Conservation Service, BLM, Fish and Wildlife, and Park Service, as the crunch year reduces staff and offices.
