Farm Leaders Sei
Confah For Today
Farm Bureau leaders from
throughout Georgia are scheduled
to meet in Macon today to formu
late plans for marketing of this
year’s cotton crop. “
According to Mr. H. L. Wingate,
president of the Georgia Farm
Bureau Federation, plans are to
be formulated whereby Georgia
cotton producers can expect to re
ceive a fair price for this years
crop.
The President asserted “that
this year’s cotton crop has been the
most expensive to produce in his
tory, and farmerg cannot afford to
sell their cotton for 32 cents per
pound. |
“This year’s cotton crop,” he add
ed, “is expected to be almost twice
that of last year, and farmers pro
duced the needed crop because of
pleas from the Secretary of Agri
culture and the Department of
Agriculture.”
“At the time farmers were be
ing asked to produce a minimum
of 16,000,000 bales of cotton this
year, cotton was bringing around
45 cents per pound,” Mr. Wingate
continued. “At that time appeals
were made to the Secretary of|
Agriculture to place a 40 cents per
pound floor on the crop. This was
refused, but a ceiling of around 45
cents was set at the time.”
Today cotton prices are hanging
at barely above the support price
of 32 eents per pound.-
The Georgia Farm Bureau Fed
eration is going ail out to work
out plang'to facilitate orderly mar
keting.
Farmers are advised to place
their cotton in loan at-the support
prige rather than to sell at prices
barely abeve support price.
A belt-wide meeting is being
held in New Orleans this week to
make belt-wide plans,
Farmers placing their cotton in
the loan will receive the support
price, and yet the farmer will ac
tually have control of his cotton
until August of 1952.
Mr. Wingate added “all of this
year's cotton crop is needed, but if

Building Frecze
Is Termed Mild
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9—(AP)
—The government's temporary
“freeze” on construction has turn
ed out to be something much
milder.
For builders with scarce mate
rials on hand or in sight, it might
even mean a short-time burst of
building activity.
Officials of the National Pro
duction Authority (NPA), inter
preting the agency's construction
order of August 3, said today it
does not prevent him from start
industrias, commercian and hous
ing projects.
What the order actually does is
set up strict limitations on the
‘amount of controlled materials—
steel, copper and aluminum—
'which nray be used in such pro
}jects after Sept. 30.
~ If a builder has the needed
metals—or can get all but small
amounts of them-—the regulation
does not prevent him from start?
ing construction.
Rather, the real test is the
amount of scarce materials to be
needed after Sept. 30 to finish a
project.
NPA began prepaartion today
of a quesizon-and-answer press
release spelling out the order.
Pay Raise For
Fulton Teachers
ATLANTA, Aug. 9. — (AP) —
Fulton county school teachers will
receive 20 to 25 percent pay hike
when they return to work next
month,
Paul West, county superintend
ent of schools, said yesterday City
and County Boards of Education
have planned a salary schedule
designed to equalize teacher pay
in the two systems.
Spurred by the Minimum Foun
dation for Education Program, the
schedule was adopted by the
county board Tuesday. The board
also authorized conferences with
city officials on a method of pro
rating state funds for education
after Jan. 1 when the plan of im
provement expansion is effective.
Thirty-nine schools will be
taken into the city when more
territory is incorporated at that
time, West added.

Big Cotfon Crop
sg, ui’r'!'i‘ B"’ "
Georgia’s 1051 Rotton erop is ex
pected to be the largest in 10 years
~—with an all-time record yield per
acre.
' The Department of Agriculture’s
first 1951 cotton report released
yesterday gives an estimated Na
tional crop of 17,200,000 bales.
Georgia, the report estimates, will
produce some 920,000 bales.
If the 1951 crop reaches that
figure, the Georgia crop reporting
service says, it will be the largest
since the 1,010,000-bale production
in 1940.
The indicated yield of 303
pounds per acre this year is the
highest in history, according to
crop reporting service statistician
Archie Langley.
The highest previous one year
yield was 280 pounds per acre and
the 1940-49 average was 238
pounds, Langley said.
This year’s crop is being pro
duced on 1,458,000 acres, a 42 per
cent increase in planting over
1950,
The dollar loss from a market
decline which sent prices down $35
a bale in six weeks, would be more
than wiped out by such a yield.

At this rate of speed, scientists
say, they burn very fast, ignited
by friction created in the atmos
