Cotton Growers To Decide On Quotas Monday, Dec. 15th Nine Polling Places Set Up For Chowan County Farmers To Cast Ballots •*■>. . The referendum on cotton mar keting quotas, to be held through out cotton-producing areas on! Monday, December 15, will be the thirteenth time growers have reg istered their choice jon how they want to market their crop, Zeno O. Ratcliff, Jr., chairman of the State Agricultural Stabilization .and Conservation Committee, points out. Marketing quotas have been in effect continuously for the last five crops. The first vote on cot ton marketing quotas was held in March 1938, and the last previous cotton referendum was in Decem ber, 1957. In the last vote, 92.9 per cent of the farmers voting ex pressed approval of using the quo tas for the 1958 cotton crop. At least two-thirds of the farmers voting must favor quotas before they may continue in effect for • • BEEFEATER J ligii ■ 'd \'i,l MwejggfSi, Burrough’s BEEFEATER GIN IMPORTED from ENGLAND by KOBRAND CORPORATION, NEV YORK 1, N.

Under legislative provisions, the Secretary of Agriculture must proclaim a national marketing quota and a national acreage al lotment for upland cotton when ever he finds that the total sup ply exceeds the normal supply. At the time quotas were pro-j claimed, prospective supplies of' upland cotton for the 1958-59 mar keting year were estimated at 20.4 million running bales, including , an August 1, 1958 carryover of 8.4 million bales, 1958 crop of 11.9 million bales (September esti mate) and estimated imports of 60,000 bales. The “normal sup ply” figure of almost 16 million j bales included estimated domestic I consumption of 7.8 million bales and exports of 4.5 million bales, plus a 30-per cent “carryover” re serve of 3.7 million bales. Thus the prospective total supply for 1958-59 exceeds the normal sup ply by about 4.4 million bales, and quotas had to be proclaimed for the 1959 crop of upland cot ton. Marketing quotas operate •through acreage allotments. In 1959, if quotas are approved in the referendum, farm operators will have an opportunity to elect a choice between (A) complying with their regular farm aliments and being eligible for the full price support available, or (B) complying with a farm allotment which is 40 per cent larger and being eligible for the full price support at a level of 15 per cent of parity lower than under the first choice. Farm operators will t be informed after the referen ) im of the proper time for registering their choice at the County ASC Office, if quotas are approved. I Under a quota program, grow ers who do not exceed their cho sen cotton allotments may maN ket free of penalty all the 1959 cotton production from their farms. A grower who exceeds the chosen cotton acreage allot ment for his farm will be sub ject to a marketing quotas pen alty of 50 per cent of parity on the farm’s excess production. If quotas are not approved in the referendum, there will be no quotas or penalties in effect for the 1959 upland cotton crop, only the “regular” allotments will be available, and price support on the crop will be at 50 per cent parity, as directed by law.' The referendum will be held between the hours of 8 A. M., and 6 P. M.. on Monday, December 15, at the following polling places: A Community Hoskin Har rell’s store, 8:00 to 9:30; C. T. Dix on’s store. 10:00 to 2:00; Grover i Calc’s store, 2:30 to 6:00. B Community E. R. Bunch’s store, 8:00 to 9:30; Melvin Evans’ store, 10:00 to 2:00; Earl Smith’s store, 2:30 to 6:00. C Community H.
