USDA Review of
REA Loans

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)--
When a rural electric coop wants
to borrow 100000 or more from the
government, USDA's agricultural
services director, Kenneth Scott, re-
views the application.
Agriculture Secretary Ezra Ben
son confirmed this new procedure at
a press conference here, August 10.
Scott's assistant, eX-Congressman
Wesley D'Ewart, sometimes does the
reviewing, Benson said.
Just what this review means isn't
clear. The act creating Rural Elec-
trification Administration Civ s

to make loans without checking with
anyone.
REAdministrator David A. Hamil
reminded power coop editors at a
session in Estes Park, Colo, August
18. "The law plainly says that the
administrator is authorized and en-
powered to make loans 1t doesn't
say that he acts on the advice of his
department head, the Secretary of
Agriculture. Nor does it say he's
supposed to find out what the White
House wants him to do"

in 1855 was 1891 .000. 900 per-
sons. as compared with 2.5l9,-

The rate Of increase Is about
IL per cent-"The most rapid
rate Of growth in world his
tory" 1t said.
The bureau. q private institu-
ton. said the speed-up in
growth rates is not caused by
a rise in birth rates. but o. a
spectacular drop" in death
rates.
Mortality has declined
somewhat in nearly all coun-
tries and drastically in many
economically underdeveloped
areas Of Africa. Asia and Latin
America" the bureau said. The
decrease was attributed to post
World War II improvements in
public health techniques
