D., July 29—Funeral| that were like open wounds in the hillsides, were carrying off with the! running waters what little soil was left in this cut-over timber region. We left the car and walked up a steep path to an unpainted shack, built of warped boards nailed up- right. Curled and leaky handmade shingles covered the roof. No porch graced the front of the home. A “razorback” sow grunted as she ran across the grassless plot that once had been a yard. In the open doorway three half- clad children clutched at the torn call- co skirt of a slovenly, gaunt woman. Her face was thin and drawn, and half her teeth were gone. “My man is out in the woods,” she said slowly. “He’s tryin’ his best to earn a little money, but it comes hard. I don’t know what we'd do if it wasn’t for the relief. I got five children. My man used to earn good money cuttin’ ties, but the timber’s most all gone and the railroad don’t pay nothin’ fer it nohow ... Sure we're gonna let the government buy this place. Reckon when it’s all done we won't get much, ‘cause it’s mort- gaged. . . . They're a’sayin’ they'll help us get a new place down the valley.” Disappointed Over Prices ‘We went back to the car and drove across a roaring bridgeless creek, and sell—although they wasn't gettin’ near what they ought to have for their land. Up the creek they was payin’ $9 an acre for land not near as good as this. But they'd have to let the government people have it. It was sub-marginal Project 84. Here on 137,000 acres of rough, hilly land were scattered 857 people. A few of them did not want to leave their own homes, and the govern- ment promised them they might keep their shacks and five acres of land. They could buy the shacks to use as long as they lived for about a fifth of their value—small as that was. Those who sold and would move out, the reclamation groups would place on small farms they were now purchas- ing. They would build them houses and furnish them with farm equip- ment and animals, and give them 35 years to pay back the loans. Heavy Relief Roll At the ghost town of Chester I talked with the case-worker who had charge of the relief for seven town- ships in Crawford county. “Three out of every five people in the dis- trict are on relief,” he said to me with a shake of his head. “There are 1,400 in this county slone that we have to take care of... . The gov- ernment is doing the right thing te buy up these sub-marginal lands and move these poor people out. There's no hope for them otherwise.” Twenty miles away I went over Project 83.. Here was better land, less poverty and hopelessness. In the narrow valleys of the 80,000-acre pro- ject there were some 6,000 acres of fertile bottom land. Here the govern- ment would make a great lake for both drainage and recreational pur- s. But’ there still was some question as to whether the people who had lived here all their lives would agree voluntarily to selling out. Certainly those families on the rich bottom lands would hold back. Renters Speak A mile up the road we pulled up by a rickety old democrat buggy, drawn by a blind white horse. A lean, pinch-faced man and woman were leaning forward half-bent in the front seat. A boy about 12 years old was standing in the wagon bed behind. “We don’t own no land,” the wo- man told me. ‘We're only renters. We don’t know what'll happen to us when the government takes over the land on the project. It'll be pretty hard for the likes of us to get on another farm. . . . Times is awful hard. Last year we had drouth and this year we've had floods.” The Bankhead bill is to help just such unfortunates as these. It would buy up large tracts of land and then put these disinhérited and forgotten men on small farms, and let them pay for them over the years. o. 3. = from his native state of Wisconsin ‘Mr. and Mrs. A.
