Fanners of Wilkes county
again may obtain aaperphospiiata
aa conservation material nnderi
the 1944 Agricultural Conaerva-
program of the AAA, accord
ing to H. C. Roberts, chairman of
the County AAA.Committee,
: The dednetlon rate for phoa-
phate this year will he 818.00 per
ton for 20 per cent materials,
117.60 per ton for-19 per cent,
and 817.00 per ton for Ig per
cent, which Is slightly more than
the rate which prevailed in 1948
due to Incratsed costa of shliH
ment from the sources of supply,
Chairman Roberts said.
“Aa was the case last year,
phosphate supplies will he limited
in 1944, but we have been assur
ed that the amounts available will
be somewhat larger than last
year”, he said. “Allocations will
be m^e on a monthly hauls, and
every farmer who plans to use
phosphate should give us his or
der as soon as possible so we can
tell what will b® needed.”
He said a total of 36,963 tons
was used In the entire state last
year and that prospects are bright
for more than that amount this
year. Of the total amount used,
farmers of Wilkes county applied
580 tons under the 1943 pro
gram.
“Furnishing phosphate and
other conservation materials Is a
part of the AAA program design
ed to increase production of food
crops immediately, and at the
same time to maintain fertility of
the soli”, he said. “Costs of all
such materials are deducted from
payments due individual farmers
at the close of the program year”.
All orders for phosphate under
the 1944 program should be plac
ed at the County AAA Office, he
added.

^AT THIS THEATRE
FRIDAY
Chicago, Jan. 12.—^Republicans
will choose their 1944 presidential
candidate in Chicago the week
beginninj; June 26 in the same
stadium where President Roose
velt wag nominated for his first
and third terms.
The Republican National Com
mittee made these choices unani
mously yesterday after Chicago
business men. submitted the only
money bid—$76,000—to pay the
convention expenses. This was the
lowest offer in years. Other Mid
west cities said they were too con
gested and New York extended an
invitation without financial back
ing.
Democrats will pick a conven
tion city and date at a meeting
of their national committee in
Washington January 22. They
also are expected to accept a bid
of $76,000 from Chicago like that
which Silas Strawn, Chicago law
yer, extended yesterday at the 6.
O. P. meeting on behalf of a bi
partisan citizens committee.
Unless most Democrats miss
their guess. President. Roosevelt
will be a fourth-term candidate
running on a program to “won the
war” as quickly as possible and
proposing a postwar expanded e-
conomy and social improvement
along with American participation
in an international organization
to keep the peace. '
The national committee mem
bers and State chairmen and vice-
chairmen here for a two- day Re
publican meeting talked mostly—
when referring to G. O. P. presl
dential possibiliites — of Deweyr
Willkie, and Bricker, with many
suggesting a ticket of Dewey and
Warren.
Governor John W. Bricker, of
Ohio, has already announced his
candidacy. Wendell L. Willkie, the
1940 standard bearer, is expected
by hig supporters here to do so
formally within the next two,
weeks. Governor Thomas E. Dew
ey of New York still insists he is
not a candidate, but many com
mitteemen here from scattered
sections of the country say an ef
fort will be made to “draft” him.
Governor Earl Warren of Cali
fornia, like Dewey a first-term
Governor, also has said he is not
a candidate foi* either place on the
ticket, but has consented to entry
of hig name in the California
presidential primary in May as a
means of becoming head of his
State’s powerful delegation of 60
to the national convention.
