... that during the Great Depression, Ernest R. Fatland led an organization that helped Oregon farmers reduce their mortgage payments and other debts to save their farms from foreclosure?

Source: On 21 January 1980, Ernest R. Fatland’s obituary in the Capital Journal (subscription required) reported: "During the Great Depression of the 1930s, Fatland served on the Gillian County Debt Adjustment Committee, helping to persuade creditors to scale down their bills to save farmer’s from bankruptcy." Another, article in the Heppner Gazette-Times, dated 5 April 1934, says Fartland was "chairman of the Gillian County Debt Adjustment Committee…" (i.e. the organization’s leader).
