Hoover Drought Relief Moves Announced by Hoover
Washington reports President Hoover and a relief committee rolled out four major steps to aid drought distressed farmers. A Tuesday financial conference will launch emergency relief, a $3.2 million credit fund from the Agriculture Department is set for buried cattle and feed costs, a $5 million Federal Farm Board fund will assist livestock movement to good pasture, and freight-rate reductions will extend to drought zones. Secretary Arthur M. supports the plan, with credits potentially reaching $20 million through intermediaries, while total needs may exceed $53 million. Local banks would likely handle dispersals in affected states.
