Loan or Gift? | (Chicago Journal of Commerce) { The Tincher agricultural relief bill, drawn in accordance with Secretary Jardine’s suggestions, provides for the creation of a federal farm board which shall use a revolving fund to grant credits to agricultural co-operative societies.

But as soon as the crop is sold, the loan should be self-liquidating. The proceeds of the sale should pay off the loan.
