Malcolm Harding as Governor of the Farm Credit Administration, effective November 1. The an nouncement of the selection of Harding, a career Farm Credit System official, was made by T. Carroll Atkinson, Jr., of Marion, South Carolina, Chairman of the Board. Atkinson said Harding, 41, who has served the Farm Credit Administration as Deputy Governor and Director of Credit Service since January 1973, will be serving “at a most critical time and in a crucial area which will help determine whether the Nation’s far mers will be able to meet food and fiber needs.’’ Harding succeeds E. A. Jaenke, who announced his resignation as Governor in June. As Governor, Harding will be chief administrative officer of the agency which supervises nationally and in the public interest the cooperative Farm Credit System through which farmers and their cooperatives borrowed more than $24 billion last year, nearly one-third of the total credit needs of American agriculture. The System is comprised of 12 Federal Land Banks and 553 Federal Land Bank Associations, making long-term loans; 12 Federal Intermediate Credit Banks and 433 local Production Credit Associations, providing short-term and in MOTHER - Bay-Rite Realty EXCUISIVE 982 ACRE GRAIN FARM 982 acres of the primest limestone bottom ground to be found anywhere.

We in the Farm Credit System are dedicated to it.” Atkinson noted that Harding is thoroughly familiar with the Farm Credit System, having served it at all levels. He joined the Farm Credit System in 1958 as assistant manager of the Federal Land Bank Association of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Three years later, he moved to the Federal Land Bank of Columbia (South Carolina) as a credit analyst. He advanced to increasingly responsible positions in the bank and in 1967 became vice president for credit and appraisal. In addition, be became vice president for credit for the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank of Columbia in 1971. As Deputy Governor and Director of Credit Service for FCA, Harding was responsible for coordinating the extension of credit by the banks and assoications of the Farm Credit System and assisting them in developing loan, appraisal and credit standards. A native of Yadkinville, North Carolina, Harding earned an A.B. degree from the University of North Carolina and taught in the Davidson County (North Carolina) school system. Following two years’ service in the U.S. Army, Harding returned to the family farm until accepting his first assignment with Farm Credit. He is married to the former June Baity and they have three children. The Hardings live in Vienna, Virginia. On behalf of the Board, Atkinson expressed ap preciation to Governor Jaenke for his outstanding service and leadership the past 5 Vz years, citing in particular his leadership in bringing about passage of a new charter act for the System, and for the fact that the System, despite a declining number of far mers, is serving more far mers than at any other time in this generation, while its loan volume has increased nearly two and one-half times.
