"twspap*
The national acreage allotment
for the 1957 upland crop has been
set at the same figure as for
1956 in accordance with recent
provisions of law.
The national marketing quota
has been set at 11,014,493 bales
(standard bales of 500 pounds
gross weight) — the number of
bales produced at normal yields
on the national allotment.
To be effective, the national
marketing quota must be ap
proved by at least two-thirds of
the cotton farmers voting in a
referendum to be held not later
than Dec. 15, 1956. The exact date
for this referendum will be an
nounced later. The allotment and
quota were announced earlier
than usual this year to allow
additional time for the greater
amount of work involved in es
tablishing the 19 5 7 acreage
allotments.

victims of this dread disease well.
Their only hope is that medical
research will find a cure before

worked diligently on my behalf.
Now that the election is over, it is time for us
to join forces and work together for the best interest
of our circuit and the State of Georgia. I can assure
you that is my goal.
I sincerely appreciate the trust that you have
placed in me by electing me your Solicitor General.
Your support and influence on my behalf will
always be appreciated and I want you to know that
my efforts will be spent endeavoring to serve all the
people of the circuit to the best of my ability.
Again, Let me say thanks for support and
certainly I shall never forget your kindness.
Sincerely,
Dewey Hayes
Solicitor General—Elect
Waycross Judicial Circuit
