Area Set Up

Secretary of Commerce, LutherH
Hodges, that 468 rural counties and
48 Indian Reservations in42 States,
three Territories and Puerto Rico
have been designated as "redevel-
opment areas" eligible for assis-
lance under the Area Redevelop-
ment Act. The following New Me-
xico counties and Indian reserVa-
tions have been designated as re-
development areas: Catron. COL

Rio Arriba, Sandova4,San Juan. San
Miguel, Santa Fee, Socorro, Taos,
Torrance and Valenc ia-Acoma,

Congressman Montoya was in
formed by Secretary Hodges thata
newly adopted set of detailed STAN
dards had been made pHbhc--tO be
applied to areas of low income and
substantial and persistent unem-
ployment or underemployment--on
which the new designations were
based. The standards are to be adj
mini stored by the Depar tment's
Area Redevelopment Administra-
ten, of which William L. Bait, Jr..
is Administrator.
In commenting on the new de-
signations, Congressman Montoya
stated that Administrator Bait had
empha sized that ella ssification of a
redevelopment area under the Act
"doeS not mean automatic aid.
Justified areas must first gain
State and Federal approval of an
overall program for economic de-
velopment before consideration
can be given to financial assistance
for specific projects designedto
create permanent employment op-
portunities.
The action was taken under Sec
ton 5(b) of the Act, directing the
Secretary to establish criteria, in
addition to those already written
into the Act by CONFESS. in order
to make the 1894 million program
of Federal assistance available to
areas in the greatest need.
The designation of the new areas
is the first inclusion under the pro-
gram of economically stricken ru-
raj areas, Indian reservations, and
other small areas having substan-
tial and persistent joblessness.
Other counties may be added to
the list in the near future to pro-
vide for the inc iusion of those adj
jacent counties which are neceS-
sary to form redevelopment units.
Such groupings will be made after
consultation with the appropriate
State author ties. Further addi-
tions may be made on the basis of
1860 Census data when it becomes
available.
The detailed standards under
Section 5(b) of the Act cover areas
Of low income, areas of low farm
income, rural development coun-'
ties, areas of low productionfarm-
ing, lowest-income Indian reser-
vations, and secondary labor mar
ket area having condition of
long-standing unemployment.
The eligibility for these S lb)
areas is determined as follows:
AREAS OF LOW INCOME
Where the average annual family
income is less one-third of the ma
uonal average.
AREAS OF LOW FARM IN
COME--Where the average annual
income of farm families is less
than IS percent of the national ave-
rage, excluding counties with met
ropolitan cities.

According to Mrs. Noga, there

Mathis learned about the extent
OF his wealth. Mrs. Noga disclosed
when she decided that II was time
he should know more about the
financial details and asked him to
accompany her to his lawyers

The lawyer started by asking
Mathis: How much do you think
your net worth is?" "oh, I guess
about $5O-75. .OOo," replied Johnny.

The lawyer then set him straight
on the matter. what would you

What About Spain?
My comments regarding the
three classes of land in Ireland
also apply to Spain. Spain has
Waterpower both developed and
undeveloped. 1t has coal. OIL

and the cost of living is reason
able. Industries are springing up
in Spain and the climate is fair,
for both workers and tourists.
Perhaps as foreign hedge
against initiation l would now ad-
wise the purchase Of Well-located
land in Spain, especially in the
suburbs madrid, Toledo, Bar
celona, and Valencia. The big
real estate profits in Spain will
take place in "Suburbia
which is now just starting.
OF course, no one should in
vest in any foreign country with
out spending a month therein
and seeing the land personally.
Spain has several different kinds

result. very little of the good
farming land is for sale in Ire
land. even at high prices. Land
which sells in Kansas for 500
per acre cannot be bought in
Ireland for less than $500 per
acre.
The mountain land in the
western portion, which is good
only for grazing sheep. can be
bought for $40 or so per acre,
depending upon its accessibility.
Lakes and rivers abound in Ire
which makes it good for past
uring. In fact. the acreage in Ire
land may be divided into three
groups: II Good farm land in
the Golden Midlands": %
pasture land with good green
grass but with not much depth
of soil, which sells for about
$50 per acre; and go rocky
mountain land good only for
surefooted sheep and cattle, but
preferably in the southern part
near the ocean.
France, Italy, And Others
The above comments as to
prices regarding Ireland apply
also to France, Switzerland, and
Italy. No good acreage is avail
able in Belgium, Holland, or
West Germany. Not only is the
fertile land there in production,
but the farmers control the pol
tics, tariffs, and even prices.
Italy, however, is fast becoming
an industrial nation with water
power and other natural re
sources. U. S. manufacturers
should watch Italy and SWitzer-
land and Japan, although
these countries now have much
unemployment.
Europe has natural resources,

Barcelona to the French Border
is about rs miles. One can make
the trip in three hours by automo-
bile or in one hour by electric
train. The first town which in
terested me was San Pedro This
is about 20 miles east of Bar
celona and has a good beach
with mediurn-priced hotels The
next was Plana on the Sea,
which is rapidly developing
somewhat like our New York
Coney Island The next point of
interest is Lloret de Mar. These
places are old towns with very
narrow streets, While the sandy
beaches for summing and bathing
are superb All these places
have numerous hotels at all
prices.
A fourth place of interest is
T0ssa by the Sea. This place is
more expensive than the others
and now appeals only to gay
young people who want to battle
on lie in the sun all day and
dance all night Furthermore.
the highway between Lloret and
Tossa is very winding, with over
70 dangerous hairpin turns.
Those going from Barcelona to
Tossa or beyond should take the
electric railway and avoid these
halrpin curves with great high
cliffs one one side and l000-foot
drops on the other.
What Land To Buy
Now for the final and most
important reason why I think
good money could be made east
OF Barcelona by those who are
willing to go there and live for
a month and look carefully
about. Here are three simple
rules to follow: "a Buy we'll

highway and the ocean even if

land now cultivated so that the
