When a farmer gets a loan
through his local farm loan aSSoci-
alton, he is required to invest 5
percent of the proceeds of the loan
in association stock. When the loan
is fully paid off, he is entitled to
repayment for this stock. Losses sus-
tanned by the associations during

hundred claimants, 60 percent have
already been repaid. 1t is expected
that all claims can be settled for by
