assets of the relief households
showed they had comparatively
small debts. Obligations of those
who had debts averaged about $3.50
each. In comparison, six out of
seven relief households with men at
the head were in debt, with an av-
erage Indebtedness of 1914.
Households lacking able-bodied
men were recognized, it was said,
by local relief agencies in making
relief grants. Households of this
type received an average of SIS a
month, while those of other types
received $14 monthly.
It was found that of all the
rural households studied one
eighth had no man at the head.
Households, as defined by the
FERA included families and also
unattached persons. The dependency
of one-fifth of the relief cases dated
back to before 1890 and most of the
group had received relief every year
since then.

FEDERAL LAND BANK LOANS
ARE NOW PAID IN CASH

On Monday of this week the Fed
eral Land bank of Spokane return
ed to it's normal practice of closing
new loans in cash, as a result of
the ready demand for federal farm
mortgage corporation bonds in the
investment markets, according to a
statement by President E. M. Ehr-
hardt.
For the. last year and a half the
Land bank has been exchanging it's
own consolidated bonds for federal
farm mortgage corporation bonds
which are guaranteed both as to
principal and interest by the fed
eral government, and closing its
loans partly with mortgage corpor-
alton bonds and partly with cash.
"One of the principal reasons for
using bonds in lieu of cash in MAX
ing Land bank and Land bank
commissioners loans," MIR. Ehr-
hardt explains, was to get a far
flung distribution of them in rural
districts. This has been well accom-
plished. the bonds being well re-
ceived by the public in general and
the farmers creditors in particular.

The flow is not large enough to

NEEDY WOMEN BIG PROBLEM
RELIEF WORKERS REPORT

WASHINGTON Needy house.
holds with women at the head
constitute an especially difficult re-
lief problem, according to a survey
made by the Federal Emergency
Relief administration.
In speaking of the problem,
Corrington Gill, assistant Federal
Emergency Relief administrator,
said, 'They represent group more
handicapped than the average be-
cause they possess very limited re-
sources and because the households
so frequently contain no employable
males.
Women whose average age was 30
years, the survey SHOWS, were left
to take care of families numbering
four persons on the average. More
than half had children under 16
depending on them, while one-fifth
had aged persons. Others had both
types of dependents. OF the num-
Der included in the survey, only
one-fifth were without children or
old people to care for.
without Business Experience
More than two-thirds Of the wo-
men heading relief households had
no experience at regular employ
ment. Consequently the loss OF the
male wage Garner left them no
occupation to fall back on. Some
households included members who
could work if jobs were available,
but one-fourth had no one who
could be employed. For the three
fourths with workers, 1t was point
ed out, there were not enough jobs
to suffice.
The women who were working
% per cent Of the total, were not
much better off than if they were
totally unemployed. The majority
were farming or in domestic service.
Their earnings averaged only $13 q
month. Many Of those who were
farming made no cash income at
all. The survey showed that the
number of women trying to operate
farms had increased by one-fifths
since 1929, while employment In
domestic service had declined one
third.

Col. Frank Knox, publisher Of
The Chicago Daily News, seems to
have a strong personal following
which has grown up almost spon-
taneously. One hears the names of

business interests may be, or are
being, organized to back the "safe"
members of the house Of repre-
sentatives for reelection and to at
tempt to put "safe" men into con-
gress in place of those whom buSi-
ness distrusts. This would be some

tional political campaign.
