State Farmers
Use Local Banks

Again in 1856, Delaware farmers
met the bulk of their credit needs
through loans from their local
banks according to Charles NJ
Hollis, Jr., president of the Della
ware Bankers Association. Mr.
Hollis is Cashier of the First Ma
tional Bank, Seatord. During the
year, he noted, the states banks
remained the leaders in farm credit
service by providing far more fl
nancial aid to farmers than any
other lending agency.
Using figures from the sixteenth
annual farm lending summary of
the Agricultural Commission of
the American Bankers Association,
Mr.. Hollis pointed out that on
January l, 1857, Delaware banks
had a total of $13,1S8,00O in loans
outstanding to farmers, compared
with $12,282,000 a year ago. On the
same date, $1,S41,O00 was held in
Delaware farm loans by Federal
Land Banks, the second largest
lender to the states farmers; SAIL,
600 was held by insurance COM
panies; $1,760,0O0 by Production
Credit Associations; and $631, 900
by the Farmers Home Administra-
tion.
The total of farm credit out
standing in banks was made up
of $3,S49,000 in production loans
and $9,839,000 ia farm mortgages.
In addition, Delaware banks held
$2O7 900 in c. C. G. paper not in
cotfhhsrp JrJ,.,o citation 8Osso
Mr.. Hollis commented especially
on the increase in farm capital re-
quirements to the present very
high levels. "This increase, he
said, 'has created a growing need
for loans with repayment periods
of longer than one year. Banks are
meeting this need in part by using
a larger proportion of real estate
credit to finance montreal estate
investments.
'@The shift to comparatively
greater use of real estate credit for
capital improvements and produc-
ton purposes is indicated by esti-
mates that over One-half of all
farm real estate loans are now used
for production and operating ex-
penses, new machinery, improve
ment of livestock herds, and the
like.
"a further reflection of bank
efforts to meet increased needs for
intermediate-length loans is the
substantial portion of production
credit outstanding at the begin
ming of 1857 which carried a repay
ment period of longer than one
year"
Mr.. Hollis stated that these in
vestments made through use of
longer term bank loans have con-
tributed substantially to the eff
cheney and progress of Delaware
agriculture"

Over The Hump!
No one, we suspect, is happy over
the final appropriation figures on
foreign aid arrived at by House
and Senate conferees. The eompro-
mise total of $3,435,S 5,S1O,G0G (com-
prising $2,768,76O.OO0 in new money
and $667 100000 in carry-over
funds) is too little to please the
White House and the foreign-aiders
at large, and too much for those
who believe that foreign aid, as an
instrument of national policy, has
been greatly overrated and widely
discredited. But, from both points
of view, the outcome could have
been worse.
OF the 5000 million cut by the
House, the Senate voted to restore
$500 million, but the conference
committee settled for less than half
the increase, or $244 million, leav-
ing the final figure more than 81
billion below the Presidents origi-
nal budget request.
Looking back on the long hassle,
it appears as though both houses
of Congress were finally convinced
before getting their tickets for
home that the American people are
really worked up over taxes and
spending, and that majority had
come to look upon foreign cid as a
logical place to begin econOmizing.
Constituents will applaud those
who have helped in the pairing job,
but they will serve notice, too, that
they consider this is only a start
in bringing spending below income
sufficiently to provide a healthy
tax cut.

Safety Council News

It's back to school time, and
that means it's time for every
driver to be extra alert where chill
dren are on the streets, Mrs. Will
liam N. Cam, the Delaware Safety
Councils vice president for home
safety, declared yesterday.
DRIVERS need to be cautious all
the time, but extra caution is need
ed now wherever children gather,
on their way to and from school,
and out playing after school, she
said.
Mrs. Cam said that with schools
ireopening, the Delaware Safety
Council is emphasizing child safe
ty in its educational program this
month. Posters, bumper stickers
and signs reminding readers: !:
Schools open-drive carefully
are being distributed by the Coun-
Gil and the Delaware Motor Club,
AAA.
While cautioning drivers to watch
out for children, Mrs. Cam also
urged parents to teach their chill
dren safe habits and safe attitudes.
1t is particularly important to set
a good example for children in
teaching them safe traffic prac-
tices. she said, adding that what
the parents does may be more i'm
pressive to the child than what the
parent says. Children driving with
their parents are Influenced by the
attitudes and behavior of the driv-
er, she said.
She suggested that, for the safe
ty of the children, parents should
teach them to obey all traffic safe
ty rules. This means waiting for
the "go" signal at traffic control
lights, looking both ways before
crossing the street, and also watch
ing for turning vehicles before
crossing.
Mrs. Cam also urged parents to
out to children the danger of run
ming out into the street from be-
tween parked cars, or from any
place where they cannot readily be
seen.
"If both drivers and children use
a little extra caution many need
less accidents could be prevented
and. many injuries and deaths
could be avoided" she said
The truth as the late Rudyard
Kipling pointed out is often twisted
