AAA Announces Rule On
Unfair Rent Practices
Landlords and farm operators
who charge “bonus rent” in an ef
fort to share unjustly in agricul
tural conservation payments of
their tenants and share croppers
face the possibility of having
their own Triple-A payments
withheld.
Homer S. Durden, state AAA
administrative officer, today said
landlords and operators could be
guilty of charging “bonus rent”
by employing certain schemes or
devices for the purpose of secur
ing for themselves a large share
of the payments than they would
have otherwise received.
“Under provisions of the Agri
cultural Adjustment Act,” he said,
“rents of this kind constitute an
attempt to deprive tenants and
sharecroppers of payments be
longing to them. In such cases
Triple-A payments may be with
held or, where made, recovered
from any landlord or operator em
ploying such in just devices.”
Various kinds of “bonus rents”
may be employed In some cases,
the charges may take the form of
a cash payment for the same acre
age on which a share rent is made.
Other arrangements may call for
a cash rental for an non-depleting
crops on the farm, while others
may call for an additional pay
ment for all land on the farm not
operated on a regular share-crop
basis.
“Still others,” he pointed out,
“may take the form of a payment
for each acre not planted to cot
ton, including idle land, and a
rental sometimes may be charged
for the house in which the tenant
must live, or for the use of the
pasture land; and, in some in
stances, the tenants may be re
quired to pay the taxes on the
farm for the current year.”
