Mr. OShea, President of the Federal FarmLoan Bank was present and gave a very good talk. Those from the Collegewere President Hamilton, Director Cccley of the Extension Service and Wilson, State Leader of County Agents. Resolutions were passedasking congress to start as soon as possible the public works such ashigh-ways and the completion of irrigation projects so that farmerswould have an opportunity to work.
