Bryan imposes moratorium on foreclosures amid farmers march
The conciliation board failed to list county advisory committee personnel but proceed with a farmers march to Lincoln. A. O. Rosenberg called the proclamation unchanged for Thursday. He noted bills in the legislature are insufficient and a partial moratorium already exists through insurers and judiciary. Some investors pause foreclosures and judges resist confirming sales except in rare cases.

Seed Loan Committee Named to Proceed on Applications Locally
A seed loan committee consisting of A W Friede Jess Exing Herbert Foster Gurley George Bartels Ed Cortney and S J Flora Potter Fred Enevoldsen Wiliam Hagemeister and Ray Arnell will review applications once materials arrive. The county agent's office will distribute the papers, and a 90 million dollar government fund aims to ease crop production loans with lenient terms. Farmers delinquent on last year's seed loans may obtain new loans to cover 1933 crop debts within set limits, though regulations for 1933 loans are not yet released and may restrict using federal funds to repay previous loans unless genuine repayment efforts were made.

Nebraska Faces Shortage as Federal AidFunds Run Out
Nebraska officials report the state has nearly exhausted federal aid highway funds. The agriculture bill before the Senate would absorb 35 million for previously authorized projects, with only Rep Almon’s proposed 120 million for 1934 and 1935 awaiting separate enactment. Funds would become available July 1 if approved, but Nebraskas remaining balance of 307133 reflects only remaining allocations, not ready money.
