Correspondent.) { (Copyright, 1934, NEA Service, | ; - Inc.) WASHINGTON.—The big brown dust elouds from the Great Drought area carry a handsome silver lining, it you want to be-f lieve the administration. ! Or they just mark the experi-! i mental farm program as a tragic | | fiasco, if you take the word ofi the opposition. : i Friends and enemies of agricul- | tural adjustment merely seem to| be yelling a little louder. Neither | Iside has taken many converts| from the other. The AAA is gen- | erally pleased with the results ofl the drought as they affect its pro-| gram. And flexible agricultural ad-{ justment, allowing either curtail- | ment or expansion of crops as| may seem expedient, will almost certainly go on unless farmers have a violent revulsion of feel ing. i Some of the confusion incident | to emergency organization h:lsl been eliminated by a more defi-: nite setup, just announced, by" which all agencies of the Depart-l iment of Agriculture working on| drought problems are brought un !der one committee. i | This new group is known as ! [ the drought plan committee, in-l | cluding all old and new units or |ga‘nized in the department and| the AAA. C. W. Warburton, ag-! ricultural extension director. has! been. named chairman. i The AAA has switched from an (attack on surpluses to an effort jof relief and conservation because | | the big surpluses, in general, arei iwiped out. | i Planned Agriculture on Way j ¢ Its reduction program speeded | up by a year or two, it now mnts‘ ia planned agriculture in Wvhich! i farmers can operate profitably. Ifi | sees itself as the ideal mechanism | | for a long-time program which | will balance supply with demand | jand develop a better system of | | farming. ! ' It must answer—and it has thel bhiggest chorus of answerers everf gathered under one roof—the cat- | calls of politicians and the »how,lsi of consumers .who will. bo.sogked, by higher food costs. Some of the winter-spring food prices will rep resent no more than the higher farm prices which AAA sought, but others will go far higher than that. President, Roosevelt, Secretary Wallace, and everybody.eise is worried by the possible - ‘political effect among city voters. Critics are hopefully suggesting that drought may be as tough on the AAA as good weather was on the Farm Board. Farmers Back Program But the farmer's attitude will be decisive as to future farm pro grams. You can’t dodge the fact that the various reduction pro grams have had the enthusiastic suppert of large majorities and history indicates that the farmers eventually get about what they want from Washington. About 3,000,000 farmers have become ‘“members’ of the AAA programs and the idea here is to maintain contracturil relationshivs with them and not to let huge oversupplies pile up. Although many farmers have been badly hurt by the drought, total farm income for the 1934-35 crop year probably will be higher as a result of high prices, benefit payments amounting to $500,000,- 000 this year—government cattle purchases, federal relief, and in come from FERA work projects. Even drought-stricken farmers receive payments from untilled land. Top Soil Damage Moderate Farm lands will be about as good as ever when normal mois ture returns. In some areas the top soil has blown around and it will be hard if not impossible to get it back. This sandy soil, if it blows around much next spring. will cut tender plants such as corn and spoil planted seed. But officials who have been in the drought area estimate the top soil situation is serious in not more than one farm out of a hun dred. < You hear little talk here now of transferring farmers. from one area to another in wholesale lots. AAA was decidedly sympathetic to earlier implications by Director of Reclamation Elwood Mead and Assistant Rejef Administrator Lawrence Westbrook that whole sale migration was necessary be cause large expanses were doomed to become a desert. People who take their first look at some drought areas are likely to think, mistakenly, that the game is up. -~ Land Should Be “Retired” Nevertheless, there are areas— in the Dakotas and Montana—, TYHE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA sion, in the September 12 primary. Talmadge was preceded by E. B Rivers, speaker of the house, who was cheered by the crowds when he told them that Talmadge was praised by President Roosevelt !which. should never have been tilled and where year-to-year suc cessful farming is impossible. Long-range AAA plans envisage retirement of- such areas from commercial preduction. Just to refresh your memory, Congress last year ordered the AAA to restore farm purchasing power, , Vast surpluses of wheat, cotton, cern, hogs, cattle, andi other commodities were the one big obstacle in the way, keeping prices -down. : | The first reduction program 'm on cotton and it was expand ed this year. Cotton, with a rec-( ord low crop of 9,200,000 bales and about 15 percent of the reduction]‘ due to drought, is still not a “shortage” erop. ]‘ l There will be a supply of 18 or 119 million bales, but cotton will be down very near the ‘normal carrycver” and Assistant AAA Administrator Howard T. Tolley, chief of the program planning section, says it's fair to say AAA has “come out even” on cotton. “About Even” on Wheat The wheat crop is a little below 500,000,000 bushels, thanks to a planned 15 percent reduction pro gram and the drought. There's a lcarryover of about 290,000,000 bushels and a normal domestic lcnnsumption of 625,000,000, so lthat if there’s a 160,000,000 bushel carryover—about normal — Tolley !points out, we'll again be “coming { out even.” | Between slaughter of little pigs, ;mhe big corn-hog program, and! ib‘EßA’s absorption of many tons‘ of pork, Tollev says, the number !of hogs cosing to market next_f yvear will be “about right” it’ Ithere’s enough feed for them. 1 B that feed situation is ad-‘ { mittedly very tight, because the corn supply is down from a nor-' mal 2,006 million bushels to 1,500 million. ‘ And if it weren't for the great| | feed shortage, the cattle problem | | might have worked out all rir.zht.; i It's at, this point, by the way,| twhere AAA—Dbent on a reduction| iprogram — tied right into the| | drought situation in a spectacu- | glur. effective way. | | New Problem in Cattle i | The Jones-Connally Act author- | ized a ecattle adjustment program | | ana $150,000.000 to finance it.| | Came the drought and the .-\AA' | stopped trying to figure out a con { tract. program, taking much 0:‘1 | that money to buy cattle from | drought farms for presentation to 'FERA, which cans them for relief food. : \ The cattle population has beenl growing until it reached an all time high of 65,000,000 last Janu ary. The government's present plan to buy up eight or ten mil lion animals would have about solved the situation if the feed shortage weren’t making it far more acute in the opposite direc tion—that of fewer and far skin nier animals. Rebuilding of the livestcok sup ply will be one of the 1935 ad justment problems. So will the danger of a huge oversupply of feed grains next year, thanks to the reduction of livestock. Something will soon be done toward ~ carrying .out Wallace's “ever-normal granary'' plan for storing grain surpluses. These would be taken off, the market by the gvoernment, as collateral by the- government, as collatéral Guards Against Pampering The AAA could sell or add to its stcoks from year to year and month to month, stabilizing sup plies and prices and still insuring sufficient supplies to guard against any unexpected shortages. Meanwhile, AAA recognizes and tries to guard against the danger that the drought relief program will develop a state of mind where any farmer will turn to Washings ton for help in any kind of afflic tion. Congressmen and others have sought to have various counties hurt by hailstorms or hurricanes designated as “emergeney drought counties.” But AAA has firmly turned them down, insisting it can deal only with a “national phe nomenon."” THE END.
