TOWN HOUSE TALK
By JOHNIE FOLLEY
Recently the radio news and
newspapers have had quite a bit
to say about aid for drouth-stric-
ken counties in this section of
the country. We wonder if the
average farmer and rancher
knows who was responsible for
getting the ball rolling and if
he would appreciate the funds,
feed and whatever aid he receiv-
es if he did know.
In the near future, probably
by the time this appears in
print, the FHA office will be re-
opened at the Cottle county
court house. Loans will be
available to farmers and ranch-
ers who cannot obtain adequate
financing elsewhere. Numerous
individuals have been instru-
mental in getting this office re-
open; htjwever, Bill Heatly,
Kelly Payne and Oochum Hut-
chison probably deserve more
credit than anyone else.
Mr. Heatly has also held sev-
eral telephone conversations
with our representative, Walter
Rogers, and through his efforts,
the severe drouth conditions
have been brought to the atten-
tion of our Governor, members
of Congress and the President.
Various newspapers, radio an-
nouncers and Chambers of Com-
merce were contacted in an ef-
fort to let the government know
how serious the situation had
become.
It now appears that in the
near future there will be further
aid from either the state or fed-
eral government in the form of
loans and feed for cattle.
As most of you know, the FHA
office here was closed because
it was not processing enough
loans to justify keeping an of-
fice here on a full time basis.
Now, apparently Messrs. Heatly,
Payne and Hutchison have con-
vinced the FHA that enough
loans will be made to warrant
an office in this county. We sin-
cerely hope that enough people
will take advantage of their
efforts to prove that they are
correct.
