Forester, head of the department of agricultural econo- i:s' at N. C. State College. Tn North Carolina alone, he said, the gross farm income for 1933 has been estimated at more than $200,000,000, as compared with $140,000,000 in 1932—an increase of 43 per cent. Due to lower pro duction costs, the net income was 75 per cent higher in 1933 than in 1932. Tobacco farmers of the south got $19,500,000 in equalization pay ments and increased prices result ing from adjustment activities. An additiohal $4,000,000 will be paid in 1934 to those who signed re duction contracts. Payments to cotton growers are expected to reach $100,000,000. These are seen largely as the outgrowth of the government’s economic program. The monetary policy of the fed Mrs. P. J.

JYyne tj Club 'With mneh en- 4ke one held on Friday Mrs. Leonard sL bfir iMrae gold standard and boosting the pric? of gold has brought about a greneral rise of domestic prices as well as an increase in the prices of foreign trade. As the value of foreign moneys increased, the prices offered by foreign buyers for American farm products rose also. Still further rises are ex pected in the futue to accompany the rising price of gold. I, an example. Dr. Forester poihted out, when the British pound was rated at $4.13, the aver age price for export tobacco was about 10 cents a pound. When the rate advanced to $4.53, the price rose to 11 cents a pound, and when the pound reached a valuation of $6.16, the dxport tobacco price jumped to 13 cents a pound. Increased prices in cents per pound could be paid by British buyers without spending addition al British money, he said, since the )KHind had increased in exchange value wi^ the American dollar.
