WALLACE REVEALS THE
1135 COTTON PROGRAM
Announcement Dm* Xrt Show Per.
oenUxe In The Acreage Redwc-
tlon.
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace,
an announcement from Washing-
, TV. " ' I lt,n - has ,oW colton erowen. that
Ww ©I IK UMrnKPM. there will be a crop limitation pro
cram for the staple in 1935.
The announcement, however, did
nor repeal the pcrcentace of acreage
reduction that would be required,
nor how much the growers would
receive for their curtailment.
Although no decision has been
made, present indications are that
the planting of about 31,000.000
acres will be the AAA goal for
1935 and that the terms of payment
will be similar to those this year.
The fact that an adjustment pro
gram for cotton would be continued
in 1935 apparently has been taken
for granted in the south. About the
only disclosure in the announce
ment was that producers who did
not sign the 1934-35 contracts would
be given an opportunity to join next
year’s program.

There will probably be a small

There remains less than
months now until Christmas, and

Work is progressing on the
bridge over Oconee River, and it is
expected that it will be completed
before Christmas. It is regretted that
it could not be finished in time for
the motorcade next Thursday.
Work is progressing on the
motion picture house, which will be
a handsome structure and modern in
every detail. It will bo called the
"Campus."
Merchants and clerks stood in the
stores Thursday afternoon and
watched the student body of G. S.

the campus to Treanor’s meadow,

Not Formal Notice
The statement issued Saturday
emphasized that the secretary's an
nouncement was not the formal pro
clamation required by the cotton act.
This must be isued not later than
December 1st. It will tell the farmer
just how many acres he is to retire
from cultivation and how much he
is to be paid for it.
One reason for the statement as
serting there would be a voluntary
adjustment program fur 1935 was
to prevent any misunderstanding be
tween this plan and the Bar.khead
cotton control act.
The latter measure, intended to
limit colton production through at
tacks on all sales above a specific
quantity, will be effective next year
only 'f two-thirds of the south’s cot
ton growers vote in favor of its ap
plication in 1935.
The referendum on the Bankhead
bill will be held soon and at the
AAA it was feared that some pro
ducers might gam the impression ;
they were voting on the voluntary
program.
There will be no referendum on
the voluntary plan, since the signers
who reduced acreage this yep- are
under contract to reduce again in
1935
Expert Situation
The export situation with regard
to cotton is being studied intensive
ly by Secretary Wallace. His con
clusions from a scrutiny of data be
fore him may change the tentative
acreage figure for next vear.
This is unlikely, however, in view
of the fact that the contract stipu
lates that the reduction next year
may not be more than 25 per cent
