An official statement is expected here today announcing government agricultural loans totalling $175,000 for Arab and Jewish farmers. The loans are to enable the agriculturists to buy forage and seed without which many farmers will be unable to sow their winter crops owing to the poor harvest and the ravages of the field mice. The loans will not exceed $75 to each farmer and will be payable in two years.
