THE KERR TOBACCO ' - CONTROL MEASURE The Kerr tobacco control bill was sign ed today by President Boosevdlt and the tobacco sectf.om of the agricultural | Adjustment Administration immediate ly announced its readiness to put,the act'into operation. i j The Kerr bill, which was subject ed to one delay after another from the -dime of itsjntnoduetion on March 1 un til its final passage by Congress on June 18, th(f last day of the session, suffered still another delay in secur ing approval by the President, j However, the President today affix ' ed his signature to the bill without comment'and in the meantime the de | partment had perfected its plans for 1 putting the measure Cnto effect, i Quotas, similar to those announced recently for the Bankhead cotton act will have to be put into effect, hut before these quotas can. be determined definitely it will be necessary for the department to ascertain how many ad ditional contracts will be signed under the provisions of the act which per mits all farmers who sign the contract within 30 days from the effective date of the law, which is today, to receive the same rental and other benefit pay ments as those who signed during the sign-up campaign. Important Feature. This feature of the Kerr bill f.s one of the several important points at which it differs from the Bankhead cotton bill, under which growers who had not signed contracts prior to its ! enactment were cut off from rental and benefit! payments, but were per mitted quotas. | Another important difference is that the Bankhead bCll specifies a total crop of 10,000,000 bales as the tax ex empt maximum' wlflethe Kerr bill leaves the total undetermined, the to tal to be the aggregate of all the con tracts with the Secretary of Agricul ture, plus six per cent, that addition in each county to go to supplementing quotas in meritous cases. It further provides that no less than two-thirds of the six per. cent is to be alloted to, those whg would ordinarily receive allotment quota* of 1,500 pounds or less. ' ■ . ■ . • j Another important point of differ-1 ence is the tax, which-is 60 per cent under the aBrikhead bill)and not less 1 than 25,nor more than 33 1-3 per cent, under the Kerr bill. -• ; Limited To fwo Tears. j Each bill is limited to two years. In. the case of the Bankhead bill,the Pres | ndent must find and proclaim a need j for extension, while for the Kerr hill' thee must b« a request ,for extension by three fourth* of the growers for] each type of tobacco for which the ex-j tension is made. The different types . of tobacco will make possible exten-j sion for the bill just as there is al ready a wide difference in the percent, age of reduction. | Ppr the flpe cured type, which ; is grown in North Carolina, the the orig inal contracts called for a 80 per cent reduction this year, but because of drought conditions, farmers were giv en the option of reducing only 20 p?r cent. '' New Slgn Up Campaign. gun St fence. ®j2*ver> tentative1 county allotments Will be announced before the conclusioBpf that campaign 'and in North Carolina these figures are expected to be close to the final figures as in. that state % per cont the growers liave already signed con_ tracts. County cOtomittees will allot the additional six -pdr cent in each in. Stance.-1 f Besides rental i payments 0f from |15 to $25 ant an**'wr land withdrawn from production, the department will pay next year 12 cent of the pro ceeds of the crop wp to 22 cents a pound. -rot' Congressman FralA Hancock in a conference today with .Secretary 0f Agriculture Henrjr^' Wallace, point ed out that a price ot 22 cents must be received next year with the reduc ed crop$for the crop to sell for as much as it did last year when there were 745,000,000 pounds pounds pro duced. in the flue cure-: territory., of of which 556,000,060 pounds were produced .in North "Car.,..«i. ft ;3 expected' that the total crop this year will bere duced to 550,000,000 pounds, willbe reduced to6f50,000,000 pounds, pounds will be grown in North Caro lina. ■■ 22-Cent Avesfnge Is Aim. A 22 cento-avenge will be the aim of the departmental, negotiation? to that end are already pnder way for marketing- agreements wtih large man ufacturers. Last year these agree ments were not signed until after the ‘beginning.. ,.ol: titoginarketing season ana wie an me state, led by Governor Efcringhaus, 0f North Carolina closed, the warehouses pend ing the signing of ti l- agreements. | l ,lhis year it isf&cpected that the agreements will bie,,signed well in ad vance of the beginning of the market ing season. \ -.- There also most, be an adjustment soon of the processing tax which is now 4.2 cents a l»und and that tax , must be reduced, which will result in the funds available for rental and benefit paymenta.-next year but will , not affect tfiis years payments. A recent decision by the department’ is confined to Georgia, mut affects many North CaroEnians in Georgia, many tobacco growers are unfamiliar with the art and have been in the' habit oA employing "demonstrators” • mostly from North Carolina. These demon*, strata rs receive a percentage of thd proceeds of the crop. The department has ruled that the payments will be made to the signers of the contracts and that the “demonstrators” must look to them fon their share. J. B. Hutson chief of the tobacco section, today reiterated that the Kerr bill is not a com pub® ry measure and declared that the si x per cen feature will -take care of those small grow ers not entitle^ to contracts and that the burden of the tax will fall upon “those eligible! to sign contracts and refuse to do so and upon those new growers who have entered the tobacco production field on a large 3cale in anticipation of high prices which' are expected to be brought about through the offorts of cooperation growers/ The delay in Preifdcntail approval was due to an apparent error in an ( amendment affecting imports, but it was determined that the error, if any, was immaterial. -x-x-x Borneo Mr. and Mrs. C.
