Production Credit
Group Gets Large
Sum In District
Estimate $4,000 Borrowed In
Four Counties For Crops,
Equipment

Thomas C. Darby of Germantown,
President of the Frederick Produc-
ton Credit Association, Walter D.
Bromley, lSecretary-Treasurer and
Directors, Ulysses Griffith, ", Cath
ersburg, and John T. Scott, Sykes
vile, have just returned from a
Group Meeting Of Production Credit
Association Directors, at Winchester,
Va, on July and 8, Walter d.
Bromley, Secretary Treasurer of the
association, announced today.
The main purpose of the meeting
was discussion of coordination Of
activities, speeding-up of service to
association members and new appli-
cants, economy Of operation, and
ways and means of reaching all
potential farmer members, Mr.. Brom-
ley said.
J. Thomas Vandenburg, assistant
to the Vice-President of the Produc-
ton Credit Corporation of Balti-
more, was introduced and led the
discussion on Credit Problems. A
lively discussion followed with prac-
tically every Director taking part
and presenting his views and expert
ences along with suggestions for i'm
provement. The interest ran so high
on this topic that the entire after
noon was given to Credit Problems.
It was the general consensus of
opinion that the credit situation has
been and is one Of the greatest prob
lens confronting agriculture. 1t was
the fullest desire Of the Directors
of local associations to further the
cause Of the farmer to the greatest
possible extent to enable him to bet
ter his financial condition. It was
revealed that many farmers are
availing themselves Of this depend
able source of credit to replace worm
out or obsolete machinery, to i'm
prove dairy herds in the way of bet
ter breeding, or the purchase of re-
placements. 1t was further stated
that many of our farmers have real
lied substantial profit in feeding
steers and hogs over the past three
years, which were financed by the
association. W
The farmers of the four counties
of Montgomery, Frederick, Carroll,
and Washington have borrowed $780,
900 in the last seven months to grow
crops, buy livestock and equipment.

Of C0unty's Weathiest
Residents, Buried Tuesday

Luke /. Wilson, retired Chicago
clothing manufacturer and trustee
of Woodward & Lathrop, died Monday
afternoon at his estate, Tree Top, on
the Rockville pike, between Rockville

ton suburbanites and widely known in
business circles both here and in his
native Chicago, Mr.. Wilson had been
in failing health for several months
He was IS years old.
Retiring, seldom in the public eye
Mr.. Wilson's name was brought into
the p-blic prints in August of 1885,
when he donated 40 acres from his
estate to the use Of the United States
Public Health Service as a site for
the erection of research center.
Mrs. Wilson was the former Helen
