It was pointed out that Japa

North China itself were pressing
the Nanking government for the
right to quit the supervision of

AAA Officials Say Papers
Should Be in Field in Two
Or Three Weeks ?
WASHINGTON—(®)—With de
tails of the 1936 cotton adjustment
program practically complete, AAA
eofficials today szid the new con
tracts should be in the field with
in two or three weeks.
An announcement of require
ments of the contracts is expected
within a few days.
Contract signers who receive the
subsidy of not more than two cents
a pound on cotton produced this
yvear under the Bankhead allot
ment, must sign an agreement to
participate in the_. 1936 program,
The first sudsidy payments, it was
said, probably will be made by mid-
December. -
Officials asserted they expected
the 1936 contracts to be in the field
before any farmers are required to
pledge coperation in the program
for next year, :
It is not the intention of the
AAA, an official said, to require
the farmers to sign a pledge in the
“dark,” without knowing details
of the program. However, it was
emphasized that once a pledge has
been signed, the producer will be
obligated .and no withdrawal will
be permitted. 3
There was little possibility, au
thoritative sources said, that the
government would offer, as partial
benefit payments next year, options
on the approximately 4,500,000 bal
es now under 12-cent federal loans.
This had been discussed, but with
the price ranging around the 12-
