SIX Shows Increase In Farm Income Cash Return To Farmers This Year Will Be Nearly! Seven Billion Dollars Washington.?The Bureau of I Agricultural Economics predicted | today that the nation's farmers' will have a cash income of $6,700,000,000 in 1935?the largest in five years. After reaching a peak of $10,479,000,000 in 1929, cash farm income slipped to $8,451,000,000 in 1930, $5,899,000,000 in 1931 and to $4,328,000,000 in 1932. The figures for last year were1 >6,387,000,000, and for 1933, $5,117,000,000. The bureau's satisfies today included farm benefit payments made by the AAA but most of the increase this year was attributed to a considerable rise in cash income from the sale of livestock. Benefit Payments AAA records disclosed that total benefit payments to adjustment contract signers in 1933 were $131,076,487, compared to $396,425,308 in 1934, and an official estimate of $585,480,625 for the calendar year 1935. These benefit payments, however, did not include the more than $100,000,000 spent by the AAA last year for purchase of livestock in drought areas. The Bureau of Agricultural Economics included the livestock purchases in estimating the total cash farm income. During the first six months of 1935, bureau records showed, cash income from farm marketings in the United States totaled $2,670,000,000 compared to $2,466,000,000 for the same period of 1934. Livestock Income Income from livestock and livestock products was reported to total $1,699,000,000, an increase of more than $300,000,000 over the first six months of 1934. Rental and benefit payments under the AAA programs during the first six months of the year were $285,000,000 compared to $149,000,000 for the same period last year. Officials said the improvement in income from livestock and livestock products probably will continue through the last half of 1935, although the increase may not be as great. "The demand for farm products in the last half of 1935," an official said, "as measured by industrial activity and industrial workers' incomes, promises to be somewhat higher than a year ago."

Into New Epoch Announcements Show For 11 November 2 And Voices Pride In New Work, Schedules New York.?The greatest ex- ( periment ever undertaken in co- j t operative employment? aimed to ? level off the peaks and valleys 1 of employment in a seasonal \ business?will reach its climax at the opening of the annual Na- ' tional Auto Show in New York's 1 Grand Central Palace November i 2nd. t "Our industry considers this c event of outstanding importance in its effort to level off the flue- i tations of employment in the in- ? dustry," said Alvan McCauley, i president o f the Automobile ? Manufacturers Association, spon- f sors of the exhibition. "If the v experiment proves successful we I are confident that it will increase j the annual earnings of automo-1 g bile workers to a level well above r that of comparable factory work- o ers anywhere in the world." c The change from the usual j t January date of 35 years stand- j t ing is the final move in an in- j dustrial planning project under- j t taken by private capital and man- k agement at the request of Mr. i t Roosevelt. At a meeting of the \ s industry's leaders early this year 1< the President asked motor car ii makers to "enter into an agree-1 v ment with one another in respect t to fall announcements of new models of passenger cars and the 1* holding of automobile shows in 0 the fall of the year, as a means n of facilitating regularization of j 3 employment in the business. Thus far the industry has carried out the proposed program | ? by adjusting production schedules,' bringing the lay-offs occasioned j0 by model changes in August instead of November, placing or- J ders for material and parts, j J thereby steadying that section of' the industry as well as the steel J and rubber trades; and by intro-!: duction of new models in Novem-11 ber?two months in advance of the usual January date which has I * e oeen pracucany a tradition wiui ^ the industry since 1900.
