Jewish as well as non-Jewish settlers in the district of Cherson who suffered a bad crop will be aided with agricultural credits, the Comzet, the Soviet department for Jewish land settlement, reports today.
The agricultural credit societies in Cherson will furnish each settler with seed for four desiatin of land. A smaller number of Jewish transmigrants than non-Jewish are leaving the farms, the Comzet reports. Improvement in the situation is expected following the recent rains.
