TWO MILLIONS
READY MONEY
FOR FARMER
Pools or Groups are
Advised Formed
For Aid

DALLAS. Tex, Nov. 13-(P)-Cot-
ton growers of Texas today had
tangible promise Of speedy aid from
the Federal government in market
ing their crops at profitable prices.
With two loans from the Federal
Bureau Cotton Association totall-
farm board totalling STATS, 900 ap-
proved the Texas Farm Bureau
Cotton Association was ready to go
forward with tthe work Of meeting
requests o farmers. 1t was made
clear that the Texas Farm Bureau
Association, in acting as the farm
boord's Intermediary. will extend
aid, not only TO its members, but
to all farmers in the State who
meet requirements.
Everybody Happy
Jubilant over the farm boards
announcement yesterday, l.. II. Lin
teader Of Dallas, assistant secre-
tary-treaSurer for the association,
declared the funds would prove the
greatest stabilizing agency the mar
ket has seen for years" Direc-
tors Of the association met here yes
terday and went through necessary
formalities so that others besides
members might benefit from the
funds.
Harry Williams, manager OF the
Texas Farm Bureau Association,
was with the farm board all day
yesterday. He kept in touch with
Texas through representative Law
renee Westbrook, chairman OF Gov
ernor Moody's cotton committee,
who relayed Mr.. Williams infor-
nation. Williams advised West
brook the farm board had approved
the Farm Bureau Association as q
lending agency and placed funds
at its disposal without restriction.
How to Get Money
To participate in the benefits,
non-members farmers should form
pools or groups, Westbrook said,
along such lines as is desired to
meet conditions in various COM
munities. 10 is estimated that 80
percent Of the growers are not MEM
bers OF the association, and by
forming their own cooperatives. they
may receive loans Of as much as
they could sell cotton for today
without becoming permanently af-
filiated with the State Association.
