MARTIN AP Newsfeatures WASHINGTON, Jan, 21.—Im- provements and repair and farm areas offer the possibil- ity of millions of jobs. Federal farm officials estimate} urgent rural development needs, public and private, at about 30! gent needs as those which should be met as-soon as labor and ma- terials become available which, may not be postponed without adverse effects. Reserve Needs They estimate that they are, in addition, “reserve” needs to- taling nearly 50 billion dolla: and “marginal” needs of possibly 25 billion dollars. By reserve needs they mean those which may be postponed without serious impairing rural resources and facilities: Marginal needs are those that remain after sonably ade- quate standards achieved. Urgent improvements include roads, schools, sanitation faci ties, recreational facilities, deve opment and_ conservation range lands vital to the produc- tion of fish and wildlife, farm conservation, irigation, drainage electrification, and farm sanita- tion. It is estimated that more than seven billion dollars in road con- struction, replacement and main- tenance is needed to bring the rural highway system up to needed to build an adequate rural roads system, an average of 2,350 million dollars a year for maintenance. Scrools Needed It is estimated that about one billion dollars in rural school construction is needed ‘immed- iately and an million dollars to bring all rural schools up to present urban standards. The inadequacy and health facilities constitutes one of the gravest needs of rur America, officials say. They e: timate that essential post- ‘war | rural health facilities would cost | nearly 900 million dollars. the need for sewage disposal and water supply facilities. Officials say that at least 650 million dol- lars should be spent for such fa- cilities as soon as possible, A billion dollars spent, officials state, on recre- million dollars to restore vege- tative cover and make other im- provements on 360 million acres of public-owned range land. FORESTRY PROBLEM Restoring forestry resources will cost more than 7 billion dol- lars, they estimate, and 375 mil. | lion dollars could be spent in de- plenshing streams with fish. In addition there is need, farm officials say, for expenditure of. large sums for improvements of privately-owned land. The Soil Conservation Service, in a nation-wide survey, estimat- es these major measures neces- sary to maintain and improve the nation’s soils at safe levels of productivity. ber Of Positions To Be!
