Taylor testified Tuesday in Washington before a Senate Agriculture sub-committee in support of legislation he is co sponsoring to permit the consolidation of small burley tobacco allotments through a leasing and transfer arrangement. Under terms of the bill which has already passed the House, burley growers wishing to expand their operation could lease and transfer to their own farms allotments assigned to other farms within the same county. Growers could lease the additional tobacco acreage for a period not to exceed five years, but could not lease more than ten acres beyond that which they are presently allotted.

Both Taylor and Ponder stressed to the subcommittee that most burley allotments are so small that it is often uneconomical or impractical for the allotment holder to grow tobacco.- The only witness to express opposition to the bill was Kentucky Senator John Sherman Cooper who argued that the leasing of burley allotments should be con sidered only in connection with a full review of the entire burley program. new little car, kicks up Its heels option, with "Plntopower" to situations.
