Growers Use Loans
To Build Storage

MORE THAN million bushels
of grain storage capacity has been
placed on Montana farms under the
Commodity Credit Corps farm stor-
age facility program during the pc
riod June, 1949, through Nov. 80,
1858.
In addition there were 302 loans
in process on November 80 to fl
nance storage facilities for another
1,974,794 bushels, according to Leo
S. Kolstad, State Agricultural Stabil-
ization and Conservation admins
trative officer. Both capacity figures
are from a recently compiled report
showing the activities of county ASC
offices under the storage program
since its beginning. The program pro-
vides for either direct loans or
guaranteed loans through local lend
ing institutions to finance the con-
struction or purchase of new on
farm storage structures.
Loans may be for as much as 80
per cent of the cost of the structure.
They are payable in four equal in
stallments or earlier at the option
of the borrower. Through last No
vember about 9 per cent of the 1885
loans completed at that time had
been repaid in full.
All counties in the state except
three-Lincoln, Mineral and Golden
Valley-have made loans with the
largest number, 1870, having been
made in Hill. In storage volume,
however, Glacier county gets the nod
with space provided for 851,071
bushels of grain through 1903 loans.
For the total storage space of g.
201, 161 bushels which has been pro-
vided, loans have totaled $2,172,172,
an average of slightly over &c cents
| per bushel. Repayment of principal
through Nov. 80 amounted to $685.
| sos.
''This report shows the extent to
which the government, through loans
and guaranteed loan programs, is
helping encourage the construction
of good grain storage structures"
Kolstad pointed out. ''Other parts of
the overall storage expansion pro-
gram include offering of storage
use guarantees to encourage con-
struction of commercial facilities in
areas where needed and the storage
facility tax write-off which permits
farmers and others to amortize the
cost of storage structures over 60
month period instead of over the
entire useful life of the building
Information on the storage facility
loan program is available at any
County Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation office. The pro-
gram is authorized to continue
through June, 1854.

Loan Rates Reduced

REDUCTION OF RATE of inter-
est from present 4 to 37a per cent
is announced by USDA on price

fective with 1854 price support loan
program and are in line with recent
trend of interest rates on short
term government and commercial
borrowings.

Bastian Expected
To Refuse 10 Accept
Recess Appointment

Federal Judge Walter M.
Bastian probably will refuse to
accept any recess appointment
to the U. s.. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia,
courthouse sources reported yes
terday. The Judge declined to
comment on the report.
If he accepts recess appoint
ment, he would have to resign
his present post as a member of
the bench of the U. S. District
Court for the District of Co
lumbia. Then, should the Sen
ate fail to confirm his appoint
ment, he would be out.
Judge Bastian has been NOM
mated for the appellate court
post by President Eisenhower
The jurist is slated to fill the
vacancy created by the death OF
Judge Bennett Champ Clark.
Senate Fails to Act.
The nomination was sent to
the Senate for the required con-
firmation but the Senate, ad-
journed without acting.
There Is some doubt whether
a recess appointment could be
made since, in a legal sense, il
is not clear whether the Senate
is actually in recess. The body
adjourned subject to recall but
did not adjourn s'sine die" with
out naming a day for resuming)
If the Senate reconvenes Short
ly to hear committee report on
the Mccarthy cenSure move, ii
is possible the Bastian appoint
ment would then be taken up.
Could Serve IL Needed.
Actually the appellate court,
now one man short of its full
strength of nine judges, could
obtain Judge Bastian's services
temporarily by simply desig-
mating him to sit with the court
In specific cases. The judge
could do this without resigning
his lower court post.
Attorney Joseph G. McGar-
raghy. Washington's leading Re
publican, is considered as likely
to be appointed to Judge Bas-
tian's present position If and
when the latter Is confirmed for
the higher post.
