"farmnotes
By F. O. MONTAGUE, Co. Agt.
Up to date there has been approved
for seed loans for crop production
purposes for the year 1933 some 330
borrowers, totaling around $24,000.00.
This in addition to farmer borrow-
ers (mainly rice and cattle men) and
$8,000.00 for unemployment relief
gives a grand total of around $60,000
(new money) that has come into this
county within the last six weeks. This
money will go far toward relieving a
real need of our farm people and of
course every line of business will feel
the good effects of these loans.
The (dead line) in getting in appli-
cations for these seed loans is the 30th
of this month. We are anxious for
every man needing a loan to get his
application in before the closing date.
Checks for these seed loans are
coming in almost daily and are being
disbursed from the County Clerk's of-
fice, coming to her office for final clear-
ance of the records before being placed
in the mails. Mrs. Hawkins has shown
a very fine spirit of cooperation all
the way through. Although this extra
work has "cluttered up the detail"
for both she and Mr. Bond, both have
always cheerfully given the time, trou-
ble, and expense toward pushing these
applications and checks through in the
shortest possibel time. It has been
a pleasure to work with these people
in this trying job.
Easter Program Will
Be Held at Methodist
Church Sun. Morning
We herewith give in full a letter
received this week from Mr. O. W.
Sherrill, Regional Manager, Seed Loan
Office, Dallas, Texas. This informa-
tion has come too late to be of any
value to this county as all loans ex-
cept for a few scattering applica-
tions yet to come in have been made:
To:—Field Inspectors, State Super-
visors, Directors of Extensoin Ser-
vice, County Agents and Chairmen of
County Committees:—
"I am pleased to inform you regard-
ing an amendment to the 'Regulations
Relative to Loans for Crop Production
during the year 1933,' which permits
the tenants of any one landlord in a
single county to borrow a total of $2,-
000 instead of $1,200, as heretifore pro-
vided. You may give proper publicity
to this information through your local
press, holding in line a limit of $300.
to one individual.
"In case your county has disapprov-
ed applications due to the fact that the
$1,200 landlord limit had been ex-
ceeded, and if, in your judgment, these
applications warrant being re-submit-
ted for further consideration, you may
resubmit them and so advise.
"At any time you are submitting a
block of applications from one land-
lord, it is suggested that ycu keep
them blocked together and submit
them at one time, worked out with the
landlord, where practical.
"Very truly yours,
(Signed) "O. W. Sherrill,
"Regional Manager."
That rain we had last week was fine
(especially west of the river where it
measured about an inch) but another
one right now on the same order would
be fine and from the various weather
prophets we will get it before the week
grows very old. Farmers east of the
river got about one-half inch rain and
are needing a good rain badly. The
Irish potato crop up around Ashwood
must have rain at once or means will
have to be taken for irrigation out of
Caney Creek.
This is the first real, growing weath-
er we have had this Spring and crops
will grow rapidly with such weather.
Good seeds beds and plenty of seed
will insure a stand but some farms
are woefully lacking in good seed beds.
Cloddy, open ground will give poor
stands always and poor stands give
poor yields. If our row crop farm-
ers would first put their land in a high
state of tilth like our best rice farm-
ers do they would increase their yields
30 per cent in many cases and that
would mean the difference between a
profit and no profit or loss.
We hear of much bird damage to
young corn crops and have had six
calls last week regarding wire worm
damage to sprouting corn. These men
used stock dip, kerosene, etc., in treat-
ing their seed before planting but it
does no good. The only thing we have
definitely found to control wire worms
is hot woathcr. As long as we have
cool, moist, weather, corn fields will
continue to be ravished by these pests
but when the ground gets hot they let
up.
The poison grain method will check
the bird damage. I would certainly
like to see thesifc pests destroyed thru

Financing the Construction of Self-Liquidating Public
Projects Through the Reconstruction Finance Corp.
During my talk at the annual ban-
quet of the Chamber of Commerce per-
taining to the R. F. C. funds that
would be available for different things,
a great many people became interested
and requested that I complete my I

TOM PARSUTT
Tom Parsutt was born in Austria,
Dec. 20, 1801, and died at his home in
this city, Sunday, April 9, 1933. He
came to the United States when about
12 years of age and followed the high
seas for 30 years or more, finally
locating in Port Lavaca, where ha
married and raised a family of five
children, namely Alfred, Maxie and
Thomas Parsutt, who live in Galves-
ton, Mrs. Gladys Sharp, also of Gal-
veston, and Mrs. Ed Gumis, of Dallas.
In the early part of 1900 Mr. Par-
sutt came to Palacios and in his early
days conducted a general merchandise
store in the building he has occupied
as his home for many years. He was
married a second time to Miss Eve
Gormey, who survives him. To this
union three children were born, two
of whom survive, Mrs. Clarence Buller
and Steve Parsutt, of this city.
Mr. Parsutt was of a quiet, unas-
suming nature, but a friend to every
one who came his way and only those
who knew him best were aware of the
many deeds of kindness he did for his
fellowmen. He had been in failing
health for some time and during the
past few weeks his condition became
more serious, yet his sudden passing
came as a shock to his family and
friends. All his children and one
grand-child, Miss Rosalie Comet, of
Galveston, were here for ths funeral
services, which were held at the grave
Monday afternoon, conducted by Rev.
Carroll B. Ray of the First Baptist
Church. Remains were interred in the
Palacios Cemetery, under the direction
of the Duffy-Rittenhouse Undertaking
Company.
Mrs. C. L. de St. Aubin was hostess
for the Contract Bridge Club Tues-
day afternoon.
ducta, waterworks, canals, and mar-
could be obtained and for what pur-
poses they could be applied. It is a
lengthy discussion so I
below the substance of an address by.
Mr. Harvey Kouch, a Director of the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation.
The Reconstruction Finance Corpor-
ation is authorized and empowered—
(1) to make loans to, or contracts
with, States, municipalities, and poli-
tical subdivisions of States, public
ag ncies of States, of municipalities,
and of political subdivisions of States,
public corporations, boards and com-
missions, and public municipal instru-
mentalities of one or more States, to
aid in financing projects authorized
under Federal, State, or municipal law
which are self-liquidating in character,
such loans or contracts to be made
through the purchase of their securi-
ties, or otherwise, and for such pur-
pose the Reconstruction Finance Cor-
poration is authorized to bid for such
securities: * * *
(2) to make loans to corporations
formed wholly for the purpose of pro-
viding housing for families of low in-
come, or for reconstruction of slut#
areas, which are regulated by State or
municipal law as to rents, charges,
capital structure, rate of return, and
areas and methods of operation, to
aid in financing projects undertaken
by such corporations which are self-
liquidating in character;
(3) to make loans to private corpor-
ations to aid in carrying out the con-
struction, replacement, or improvement
of bridges, tunnels, docks, viaducts,
waterworks, canals, and markets, de-
voted to public use and which are self-
liquidating in character;
(4) to make loans to private limited
dividend corporations to aid in financ-
ing projects for the protection and
development of forests and other re-
newable natural resources, which are
regulating by a State or political sub-
division of a State and are self-liquid-
ating in character; and
(5) to make loans to aid in financ-
ing the construction of any publicly
owned bridge to be used for railroad,
railway, and highway uses, the con-
struction cost of which will be return-
ed in part by means of tolls, fees,
rents, or over charges, and the re-
mainder by means of taxes imposed
pursuant to State law enacted before
the date of enactment of the emer-
gency relief and construction act of
1932; * * *
As may be seen Congress has limited
the purposes for which this fund may
be used. The projects on which it is
to be loaned must be self-liquidating.
The loans must be fully and adequately
secured.
These restrictions are as binding on
the Reconstruction Finance Corpora-
tion as they are on the borrower. This
corporation has no power to make any
loan under this section-unless and until
they are complied with.
It is anticipated that every penny
loaned by the corporation shall bo re-
paid. It is further contemplated that
the borrower shall receive a lasting
economic benefit and not an economic
burden from the construction thus fin-
anced. All projects must pay for them-
selves. There is to be no aftermath of
public or private debt or default.
Who May Borrow
Until the requisite legislation can
be procured in many States loans
under the provisions of the second and
furth paragraphs of the statute above
quoted will necessarily be limited. Ap-
plicants under the fifth paragraph are
dependent on existing laws. For the
purpose of giving immediate employ-
ment this corporation and potential
borrowers from it will for the most
part operate under paragraphs (1) and
(3). The first covers borrowing by
publig bodies; the second covers bor-
rowing by private enterprise.
Any public body, whether a body
politic or a public agency thereof, may
boi row from the Reconstruction Fin-
ance Corporation provided the laws
to which it ia subject give it power
to borrow for the particular project.
Any project which such a borrower
wishes to undertake is an eligible pro-
ject provided the borrower has power
to undertake it and provided it is "self-
liquidating."
Private borrowers may receive fi-
nancial assistance for projects set
forth in the paragraph already quoted,
namely, bridges, tunnels, docks, via-
to or constructed, in order to determine
whether or not it is possible to obtain
the use of a portion of these monies to
relieve suffering from local unemploy-
ment.
Types of Public Projects That. May
Be Made Eligible for Loans
Any project which public bodies
wish to finance is an eligible project
so long as these bodies have power
under their local laws to undertake
it, and provided it can be made to
maintain and amortize itself out of
earnings. When these conditions are
fulfilled, this wide field includes:
1. The construction of waterworks,
reservoirs for the storage of water,
the extension of water mains, the re-
construction of worn-out pumping
plants,or leaky mains, the replacement
of machinery that is costly to operate,
the construction of pressure tanks to
secure better distribution of water or
better fire protection, the construction
or filtration plants, sludge basins,
water-softening plants, and for any
other improvements to waterworks
which are authorized by law, when the
laws provide that payment for them
shall be made out of charges for the
use of water.
2. The construction of sewers and
sewage-treating plants where a charge
is made for their
3. The construction of bridges, tun-
nels, and viaducts for the use of which
tolls or other fees are to be charged.
4. The construction of self-liquid-
ating public docks for the use of which
are to serve the public.
6. The construction of plants for the
manufacture and distribution of gas.
7. T j construction of municipally
owned pipe lines and systems for dis-
tributing natural gas.
8. The construction of dams, reser-
voirs, ditches, and other works by ir-
rigation districts or other political
subdivisions for the storage and use
of water for irrigation where charges
are made for the water furnished or
in proportion to the services rendered.
9. The construction of ditches, pump-
ing plants, or other drainage works
by drainage districts or other politi-
cal subdivisions where charges are
made in proportion to benefits obtain-
ed.
10. The construction of storage re-
servoirs, levees, or other works for
flood prevention or protection where
charges are made in proportion to
their usefulness to the property assess-
ed and when consent to the charge is
substantially unanimous.
11. The construction of municipal
swimming pools, gold courses, stadia,
or other recreational facilities which
will be paid for out of charges for their
use.
12. The construction of dormitories
for State universities, public schools,
etc., which are authorized by law and
which are to be paid for by rents or
other charges.
13. The construction of public mar-
kets or stock-yards for the sale of pro-
duce or livestock, to be paid for out
of charges for their use.
14. Any and all other public works
owned by a governmental body which
are to be paid for by charges for their
use, instead of by taxes.
"Self-Liquidating" Defined
The project to be financed may be
large or small, but to be eligible for
financing through the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation it must be "self-
liquidating." The statute contains a
concise definition of that term:
For the purposes of this subsection
a project shall be deemed to be self-
liquidating if such jroject will be made
self-supporting and financially solvent
and if the construction cost thereof
will be returned within a reasonable
period by means of tolls, fees, rents,
or other charges, or by such other
means (other than by taxation) as
may be prescribed by the statutes
which provide for the project.
The potential borrower should there-
fore consider two questions:
First.—Will the income from the
project under consideration be sufficient
to rtieet operating and maintenance
charges, interest, and amortization?
Second.—Do the pi'dspective rev-
enues arise from sources within the
contemplation of the statute?
The first question requires little dis-
cussion. Its answer involves simply
obtaining the best estimates of costs,
income, and expenses that are avail-
able arid giving them careful consider-
ation in the light of probable interest
and amortization charges.
How to Apply for A Loan
An applicant should obtain from the
Engineers' Advisory Board of the cor-
poration, at Washington, D. C., a copy
of Circular No. 3 before making for-
mal application for a loan. This cir-
cular outlines the information required
by the corporation. Because of the
varied nature of the projects contem-
plated by the statute, no standard ap-
plication forms have yet been prepar-
ed.
The corporation has established 32
■ loan agencies in various sections of
the United States. These agencies are
prepared to aid applicants in deter-
mining whether or not their projects
are eligible for loans and to give as-
sistance in the preparation of appli-
cations.
Where Applications Should Be Sent
All applications for loans should be
sent to the Engineers' Advisory Board,
care of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation, 1825 H Street NW.,
Washington, D. C.
How Applications Are Examined
All applications for loans are exam-
ined by the examiners of the En-
gineers' Advisory Board, the legal de-
partment, and the financial advisors
of the Reconstruction Finance Corpor-
ation in Washington, D. C. When an
application has passed through the
hands of these examiners, it is sent
to the Engineers' Advisory Board with
recommendations. This body reviews
the application and all supporting
data. It, in turn, prepares a recom-
mendation to the board of directors.
This report forms a basis for the ac-
tion taken by the directors which eith-
er authorizes or declines the loan ap-
plied for. When applications are re-
ceived by the Engineers' Advisory
Board and are clearly eligible for a
loan from the corporation they are act-
ed on in a comparatively short time.
Delays result when border line and in-
eligible applications are presented. It
is urged that public officials determine
whether or not their application is
clearly eligible and will be self-liquid-
ating before it is presented.
The corporation is willing to confer
with and answer correspondence of
applicants for loans. The sources of
the corporation can be directed to the
relief of unemployment only through
the cooperation of public officials.

Now that the above has been
thoroughly outlined and as stated at
the banquet, in my opinion, to the
touring public Palacios to them is
only another country town that they
are passing through, and if \ve do not
take advantage of our natural re-
sources and possibilities, and our
neighboring towns do it is our own
fault.
We have a city park which is main-
tained and is a credit to the commun-
ity, but at the same time we must ad-
mit that it is an expense as beauty In
itself means nothing. After reading the
above you will see that it would be
possible for the Ladies Auxiliary of the
Chamber of Commerce to build a com-
munity house on this location, and if
they would build one there not to cost
over $3,000, if I am correctly informed
the payments would be above $30 per
month that this house would have to
earn, and a community house would
certainly be an asset to Palacios. Of
course this would have to be handled
through the cooperation of the Mayor
and City Council who would probably
have to handle it direct, but could be
sponsored by the Ladies Auxiliary.
The next thought is this; you will
notice that a private individual can
borrow money on a project that is for
public use. We have one concern in
our town which I feel has meant a
whole lot to this community, that is,
the Crawford Packing Company and
the fish industry has meant a whole
lot to this community. I do not know
that Mr. Crawford would even con-
sider or entertain nor have I permis-
sion to say that he would carry out
any of the ideas suggested, however,
I have discussed this matter with him
several times in the last two weeks
and my thought is this; The* Craw-
ford Pacing Company already owns
the location that is ideal for a harbor

boys defeated the Collegeport nine,

ed 5 hits in G times at bat.
Buck Snider turned the opponents

ter which Dean Taber took the mound.

Diversion of Hi-way
Funds Would Mean
Discharge of Many
Houston, Texas, April 12„—Dish
charge of 500 employees by the Okla-
homa highway department, as the first
of a series of drastic retrenchments
forced by the diversion of gasoline tax
money in that state, was cited today
by W. O. Huggins, president of the
Texas Good Roads Association, as "a
typical example of what Texas may be
facing soon."
Associated Press dispatches quoted
H. N. Arnold, chairman of the Okla-
homa road commission, as blaming the
state's tax diversion bill, which takes
40 per cent of the gasoline tax from
the highway construction and mainten-
ance fund.
"This tragedy being enacted in Ok-
lahoma," Judge Huggins declared, "is
a warning to Texas. The one vital
thing today is to keep men at work,
and road-projects provide the maxi-
mum of employment, yet Oklahoma's
most valuable source of work is being
riddled.
"The fundametnal problem right
now is unemployment. We need not
believe our moratoriums and remedial
schemes will amount to anything un-
less unemployment is decreased. And
if the unemployment problem is solv-
ed, all other problems will solve them-
selves.
"There are 20,000 men on the pay-
rolls of the highway department and
the contractors doing its work. An
even greater number are producing
road materials and at work in lines
associated with highways. With their
families they number more than 100,-
000 Texas people. Today they have
bread and clothes and shelter. But
what of tomorrow!
"If Oklahoma is in .serious trouble
through diversion of 40% of her gas
tax money, what of Texas? Texas al-
ready diverts 50'/i to schools and coun-
ty bonds. Yet there are two measures
now before the legislature to take
away still more.
"The Texas highway department can
barely carry on with present funds. If
any more are taken away, our unem-
ployment conditions during the coming
fall and winter will be indescribably
tragic. Every merciful citizen must
help fight such a project."
SOME HOT WORK OUTS
Chief Bowdsn of the Palacios Volun-
teer Fire Department, has been put-
ting the boys through some very in-
tensive practice of late, and on Mon-
day night, the regular meeting night,
they did some excellent work in the
way of the different hose connections
and hook-ups. To give them a little
more practice, Chief Bowden had a fire
alarm turned in from the East Bay
School Tuesday at 11:45 and the boys
made the run and ready for work in
3 minutes and 45 seconds. The teach-
ers demonstrated they had done some
fire drill practice too, as every child
was properly marshaled out of the
building in 40 seconds.
Rev. G. F. Gillespie and W. H.
Clement left early Tuesday morning
for Calvert, to attend the regular
meetipg of th? Brazos Presbytery.
By ALTON S. QUINN
Beacon Sport Reporter
With Walter Snider in the lime-
light the local nine played airtight
ball Sunday afternoon to conquer the
visiting Rockport club, 9 to 3. Rock-
port met Palacios with the same lineup
that beat Austwell 8 to 5 in the open-
ing game of the season. —- _
/ -*
Snider's work on the mound was
good, holding the Rockport sluggers
to six well scattered hits and one earn-
ed run. Not until one was gone in the
ninth did a Rockport earned run cross
the plate. This was from a lusty
home run to left field from the bat of
big Ed Linny, Rockport pitcher. The
clever young pitcher tightened in the
pinches and was also aided by fast
fielding, the Sharks completing two
double-plays during the afternoon.
Despite the fact that each team
made three errors, a good fielding ex-
hibition wai given. Diedrich, Rock-
port first baseman, made a sensational
one-hand catch in the first on Maples'
pop foul.
Julius Snider was the fielding flash
of the afternoon, handling six differ-
ent chances and making one misplay.
Julius was covering plenty of ground
and grabbing them from either side to
retire the runner. He threw out three
men at first that would have been
credited with his under ordinary field-
ing.
The Sharks cut loose with their
heavy artillery, scoring 7 extra base
hits.
Sunday afternoon at 3:30 the Sharks
encounter the Bay City Oilers. Both
teams have a .500 percentage and both
have taken their defeat from the Port
Lavaca Sandcrabs. Each team will be
slugging hard for its supremacy in
the League.
Bob Covington, clever right-hander
from Gulf, will do the slab work for
the local team. Covington has for-
merly played with the Houston Buffs
and has plenty of stuff.
The Shark infield will be greatly
strengthened with Jackson at short.
Jackson is a classy fielder and a good
hitter.
A good attendance is anticipated for
Sunday's game. The assurance of a
good game with possibly a small score
is indicated as Covington and Wood
meet. Both pitchers have been in
Class A Leagues.
