RFC DECLINES
DISTRICT LOAN
Continued From Page u

Continued From Page u
Hewes Friday after receipt of news
from Washington that the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation has
denied the districts request for a
refinancing loan.
Action awaits only a knowledge
of details in the RFC ruling. Hewes
added.
The boards next action, he indi-
Gated. will be to continue efforts
! to obtain an RFC loan. with an
! eye TO the alternative Of another
refinancing program arranged with
the bondholders.
Inferentially, Hewes blamed
groups both inside and outside OF
Imperial Valley for the RFC deci-
sion.
Until We have a report from
Washington, he said, outlining in
full the present status of our appli-
cation. it is rather premature to
comment on the situation.
However, in view of the opposi-
tion to the loan at home as well
as attacks on it by powerful inter
estS in WASHINGTON which are also
fighting the districts entire pro-
gram, 1 can readily see why RFC
may be very reluctant to enter
community where the people allow
themselves to be swayed by malici-
GUS propaganda.
I'VE must realize that while the
fight is now directed against our
present bondholders. just as soon
as RFC made us loan, that gov
ernment agency would become the
bondholder, and it is rather diff
cult to get financial relief from
any agency when some individuals
among the people seeking that loan
are devoting their time and energies
to publicizing tax strikes and tur-
moil that might result in destroying
the security which would be behind
the new loan. RemembeereeeETN
the new loan. Remember. RFC
would be our bondholder if they
made the loan.
The majority of the board OF
directors realized that IN view OF
the strife and turmoil being ad-
vocated by the opposition in the
valley. we may be temporarily. de-
layed in securing our lean or even
find ourselves unable to persuade
RF'C to come into the valley at
ALL"
Regardless of what the opposition
is. or how hard they try to destroy
the valley right on the eve of COM
pleting the All American canal and
putting our power program INTO
effect. the majority Of the board
is determined to proceed with some
form of refinancing which will pro-
tect the equity Of our present land
owners in their lands.
The people of the valley must
also remember that whatever re-
financing plan is developed, they,
themselves. are the ones who VIII
vote and either approve or dis
approve this plan They must re-
member they are the one and only
power which can put any kind OF
a plan into effect, or prevent It's
approval. as all your board can DO
is work I'D such n plan and then
present it to you for your consider
alton. You are the final judges in
the matter.
.Upcn receiving detailed informa-
ticn from RFC, the district board
OF directors is ready to proceed or
another program of either continu-
ing our efforts to secure loan
rom RFC, or an alternative re-
financing program, direct with the
bondholders," Hewes concluded.
