BANkHEAD BILL TO
AID VETERANS AND
L0W-lNC0ME FARMERS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16
(ANP).-To meet the pressing re-
quirements of low-income farmers
and returning veterans in the re-
conversion period, Sen. Bankhead
of Alabama, recently introduced a
bill S. 1907 to amend the Bankhead
Jones Farm Tenant act of 1887. The
bill has been referred to the senate
committee on agriculture and for
estry.
S. 1907 proposes to modernize the
Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant act
and establish a basis for agricul-
tural credit through the Farm
Security administration already
adapted to meet the pressing re-
quirements of low-income farmers
and returning veterans during the
reconversion period.

require the combination of credit
and guidance that is available in
these programs, experts, adding if
their requirements are to be adequ-

of 1887 must be improved in the
light of the past years of experience
so as to take account the needs of
