Senate approves farm aid
WASHINGTON (UP1)—Farmers who are in need of immediate financial help to meet outstanding debts would be assisted by a new government-guaranteed loan program approved unanimously yesterday by the Senate.
The program, which now goes to a conference committee to be discussed, provides $4 billion in government-guaranteed or insured loans through the end of 1979.
The bill that details the program is designed to help farmers and ranchers who are caught in a cost-piece squeeze and are unable to get credit to meet their financial obligations through regular credit channels. By offering a government guarantee or insurance of repayment, credit channels through commercial banks and other
nongovernment lenders are expected to open up.
The Senate voted 92.0. The House approved a similar bill in April.
SUPPORTERS OF the bill said it was essential to the survival of the family farm because many farmers, hurt by rising costs and facing bankruptcy without help, are facing bankruptcy.
The Senate bill provides a maximum $500,000 guaranteed loan to individual farmers. The House bill provides a maximum $400,000 loan to farmers and would allow that the individual loans would actually average $100,000 and would go to 40,000 farmers.
The proceeds of the loans could be used to meet operating expenses, refinance outstanding debts, reorganize farming or ranching operations or finance closing costs
On a voice vote, the Senate approved an amendment to keep the loans from being forgiven.
In addition to the emergency credit program, the bill also expands the various credit programs offered through the Farmers' Agriculture's Farmers Home Administration.
The bill includes a special mortgage program with reduced repayment schedules in early years for small family farmers. It would make family farm corporations eligible for Farmers Home loans and also would extend for one year an emergency livestock credit program that expires in

Required space for student cars to be reviewed
The Lawrence City Commission last night approved an amendment to the city zoning ordinance that would not change the required number of parking spaces in apartments on the city's main streets may affect the number required for residence halls, fraternities and sororities.
New apartment complexes must continue providing 12' x parking spaces for each unit. The residents have required one parking space for every lawn resident of a residence hall, fragrant.
Commissioners said they wanted to review that section further before voting.
The commission deferred any decision on receiving bids for the East Lawrence Recreation Center. A bid date for Lawrence Airport improvements was set at May 25.
The commission also voted to allow private clubs in neighborhood shopping centers. Commissioner Marie Arginger said she thought the shopping centers usually had enough parking space to alleviate any overcrowding problems.
Derailed train costs $150,000
the damage from an eight-car Union Pacific train derailment yesterday about two miles north of Lawrence has been estimated at $150,000. Edwin Shafer, Omaha director of public relations for the railroad, said yesterday.
Several witnesses and officials originally reported that the dermaliment might have been caused by strong winds. However Seabird Observatory's possibility was no longer being considered.
Schafer said the damage estimate was expected to increase because a railroad car of undetermined value will have to be scrapped. Most of the damage was to 54 new Datum automobiles being carried on three of the railroad cars, he said.
"Strong winds have no credence." Schuster said, "Our people haven't men-
affairs, said yesterday that he had expected a report from the agency, said Mr. Glover, who received the response.
Schafer had said Monday that the tracks were in good condition and that the deralment was probably caused by equipment failure or human error.
Donald Alderson, dean of men, and Clark Coan, dean of foreign students, are preparing the report to determine the extent of a decision that shows disruptive acts, Ambler said.
Alderson said that although the report had not been prepared, he had viewed photographs taken by KU police during the speech.
THE PHOTOGRAPHS would be used as evidence in any hearings on the disruption,
Ambler said that after the number of disrupter was determined, the exact process for the hearings would be announced.
Once investigations are completed, he said, a formal administration hearing will be held.
"After the hearing, the student would have the opportunity to appeal to the University Judiciary, if they felt appeal was necessary," Ambler said.
He said the administration hoped to complete all investigations by the end of the week.
