Farmers In the middle Atlantic
states have only S8.687 900 outstand-
ing from loans totalling $50, 3,s72 900
made by 36 farmers production
credit associations.
The figures were announced by +.
o. Wilson, president Of the Pro-
duction Credit Corporation of Bal
timore, in discussing activities OF
the association while in Washing
ton for a conference OF directors OF
the IL farm credit districts.
Wilson's district includes the
states of Maryland, Delaware, West
Virginia, Pennsylvania, Virginia,
and the territory Of Puerto Rico.
"The cooperative associations
making short-term loans for crop
and livestock production discount
farmers notes with the Federal In
termediate Credit Bank of Balti-
more, and thus finance the sound
credit needs of their member -bor-
rowers with funds borrowed from
private investors" Wilson said. Be
cause these associations are farmer
controlled-each borrower owning
at least small amount of voting
stock-they are proud Of the fact
that they do not lend Government
money
Each of the SO associat tions is an
individual unit, operating under dis
rection of a local farmer-elected
board of directors and subject to
profits and losses on it's own opera
tions, by borrowing money only &C.
cording to actual production needs,
and repaying promptly, many farm
er-members of the association have
built up excellent credit ratings.
Losses since organization of the as.
socia tions have been less than one
half OF one per cent of the total
amount loaned"

Chicago Grain
6y the Associated Press

~1y the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Sept. 30.-The weeks
recession in grain prices resulting
partly from peace talk in Europe
came to a halt today as wheat led
a sharp rally which amounted to
about IL cents at one stage.
Kansas City wheat futures show
ed gains of almost 2 cents at
times.
Strength in security prices and
reports of clearing weather over
much of the grain belt stimulated
the recovery movement. At the
4 same time the news from Europe
while uncertain, did little to en-
courage further selling based on
peace talk.
With skies over the Southwest
winter wheat belt clearing, traders
said the rains Of yesterday and
over night apparently were too light
in most districts to bring genuine
drought relief. What moisture was
received, experts said, may prove
suficient to germinate wheat al
aready sown, but not to keep 1t alive
Rainfall of one to two inches is
needed.
The recent recession in wheat
values was reported to have stimu-
lated improved milling demand To-
day is the last day for farmer ap-
plications for crop insurance on
winter wheat to be harvested in
194O The insurance agency has
been purchasing cash wheat in con-
nection with this program.
Corn prices showed early gains
of about cent in sympathy with
the action of wheat. Some reports
indicated showers over part of the
belt had slowed up harvest and
frost was reported in some districts
but little or no damage is believed
to have been done
Oats and rye prices were higher
and lard also developed recovery
power.
At II am. wheat was 1sa-134

game is basically solid. Every shot
is played Clearly and crisply. She
has no swinging weakness, and is
one of the longest hitters among
women golfers.
Though she isn't an overnight SEN
sation, Betty did get an early start.
That's why, at the age Of 20, she
managed to annex the women's IT,
tie. She won the Texas municipal
championship when she was IL
years old, the state women's crown
at Is, and the Southern at Is.
Miss Jameson is the fourth new
champion in four years. Mrs. Glen
ma Collet Wares victory in 1895, her
sixth, marked the end Of the old
order. Since that time the title has
been held by Pam Barton of Eng
land, IS years old when she won It
by Mrs. Estelle Lawson Page Of
Chapel Hill, N. c., a newcomer; by
Miss Patty Berg Of Minneapolis,
who, even in her early teens, was
acknowledged to be one Of the best
women golfers in America, and who
was unable to defend her title this
year because Of illness, and now by
Miss Jameson.
Winning this tournament may be
of inestimable value to the girls
game. It will give her confidence,
and will help end a tendency to
tighten up at crucial stages, one of
her difficulties for the past 2 years.
It looked for while as if Betty's
tenseness might cost her the tourna-
ment. She had been 4 up at the
end of the first Is holes, marking
down a sparkling rs. She looked
like an easy winner then, but tight
ened up to such an extent that she
couldn't get her tee shots, and some
Of her approaches, working normal
ly. Miss Kirby almost caught up to
her, winning three holes back on the
first six of the outgoing round.
Her game came back, however.
She won the twenty-seventh by soar
ing two beautiful wood shots to the
green. She played for pars and got
halves ON the twenty eighth and
twenty ninth, and won the thirtieth.
The competitive temperament will
come to her, and that's all she needs.
The eyes of Texas can well rest
upon Miss Betty Jameson-a real
champion.

Is a sturdy, solid sort Of a player.
When she defeated 19-year-old Doro-

round, even the most rabidly Dixie
minded fans admitted that the Geor-

er. Betty, Miss Kirby's senior by
only one year, is recognized as one
Of the finest players in feminine
ranks.
This was the second time the two
finalists had met. Two years ago,
in the southern championship, the
pride and joy of Atlanta beat Miss
Jameson 3 and 2. The slender Geor-
gia girl was just too good. This
year, in the National meet, the Ia
