Referendum On Cotton
Will Be held On
December 13, 1960
A National 1961 Upland Cotton
Marketing Quota of 15,562,000 foal
ed and an acreage allotment of 18,-
398,424 acres have been proclaimed
by the Secretary of Agriculture, ac
cording to John F. Bradley, Ad
ministrative Officer of the Agricul
tural Stabilization and Conserva
tion State Office.
The need for minimum farms has
been reduced from 310,000 to 60,000
acres on a national level. This is
due to the increase in the national
acreage allotment. Georgia’s cotton
acreage allotment for 1961 is 948,-
020 acres. This is a small increase
over the 1960 cotton allotment for
the State, Bradley stated.
Bradley further stated that cot
ton growers will vote on December
13, 1960, in the annual referendum
to determine whether marketing
quotas will or will not be in effect
for the 1961 crop of upland cotton.
If approved in the referendum, quo
tas will apply to the 1961 crop of
upland cotton, which will be the
eight successive year in which quo
tas have been in effect.
The Secretary of Agriculture has
determined that the estimated total
supply of upland cotton for the
1960-61 crop will be approximately
21.7 million bales, which is about
three milion bales above normal.
The law requires the proclamation
of quotas by October 15 in any
year when the total supply exceeds
the normal supply. Quotas will not
take effect unless approved by at
least two-thirds of the growers vot
ing in the referendum on Decemb
er 13, 1960. For the year 1961 there
will be only one allotment price
support program available to grow
ers. The program on Choice (A) and
(B) allotments was only provided
for the years 1959 and 1960.
If marketing quotas are approved
in the December 13 referendum,
price support will be available to
growers who comply with their
farm allotments at a level within
the range v of 70 to 90 per cent of
parity. As in other years, the exact
| level of price support will be deter
mined later. Growers who exceed
their farm acreage allotments will
be subject to penalties of 50 per-
jcent of the June 15, 1961, parity
price on the farm’s excess product-
lion of the crop. In addition, none
City of Columbus
Ponders Through
Law on Dogs
COLUMBUS, Ga., Nov. 24—City
commissioners here Wednesday are
pondering a proposed dog ordinan
ce amendment that would smack
a $250 fine or .90. days in jail on
canine owners whose pets could be
proven nuisances.
The amendment drawn up fol
lowing complaints from irate citi
zens howling about dog damage to
their property, would beef up the
existing ordinance which provides
no recourse against nuisance dogs.
The amendment specifies as a
nuisance dogs that bark incessant
ly, run on school grounds and in
public parks without control, run
in packs of three or more, destroy
and foul private property, and feed
from garbage cans.
The amendment provides for a
maximum fine of $250 or 90 days.
The burden of proof that a per
son’s dog is a nuisance rests with
the plaintiff, who may call police
and then carry his complaints to
the recorder’s court judge.
The city fathers are scheduled to
vote on the ordinace amendment
next week.
Baptist Plan
Atlanta College
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 28—The ex
pected boom in college-age students
in Atlanta - like everywhere else—
is expected to reach a critical point
by 1970. But Baptists are moving
now to meet this emergency.
Already in possesion of a 464 acre
site just 12 miles from Five Points,
and approximately one third of
their $3 million minimum cam
paign goal, the drive for a new
educational plant took on new life
this week when the Georgia Bap
tist Convention met in Savannah.
Plans were solidfied to open the
college, which will accept day stu
dent only at first, as a branch of
another Baptist school, Mercer Uni
versity at Macon.
of the upland cotton produced on
the farm wil be eligible for price
support, Bradley stated.
If marketing quotas are disap
proved for 1961, acreage allotments
will remain in effect and price
support will be available to coope
rators at 50 per cent of pa/ity, as
provided by law.
Fleecers Pounding
Housewives’ Door
Throughout State
It's open season on suckers in
Georgia.
October is a peak month for sun
shine lovers to flock to Florida.
Their method of getting there
ranges from thumb-wagging to the
best autos money can buy.
Thousands pass thru the State.
Honest tourists are welcome, even
tho from the treatment accorded
some in a few counties you would
not think so.
But the kind to beware of are
those after a fast buck enroute.
The swindle pulled in South
Georgia the other day may or may
not have involved persons going
to and from Florida.
But it does serve as a reminder
that this is the time of the year
that fleecers, con men and the
like ply their trade to the hilt.
Sheriff Warren Johnson of Ba*-
ker county hopes that the $17,000
shearing of some folks in his area
will be a lesson to people who
might be tempted by the get rich
schemes.
So do we.
Cotton Referendum
