FLOYD EXPLAINS TO BAGCO ALLOTMENT ?- ( Mr. E. Y. Floyd, State AAA Ex ecutive Officer of State College, explained to more than 100 far mers'and business men assem bled in the Court House in Louis burg Friday, Sept. 22, the latest information regarding the tobac co situation. Mr. Floyd stated that he regreted the fact created by the present war emergency, making it necessary to hold ref erendum before 1940 tobacco al lotments could be announced, but he was sure the greatest Interest on the part of the farmers was to know the approximate acreage they could plant under their 1940 quotas. Under the procedure already approved by Secretary of Agri culture, H. A. Wallace, for deter mining allotments, he stated it was extremely unlikely that the 1940 acreage allotment for any regular or old tobacco farmer would be reduced more than 20% or one-fifth below the 1939 allot ments of acres to plant. He fur ther stated that any farm on which the harvested acreage in 1939 was materially larger than the 1939 allotment could not ! count upon receiving Increased allotment in 1940 for reason of having planted the larger acre age, however, it was possible to receivee a slightly larger allot ment than In 1939 should It be justified by the land, labor, and equipment after considering oth er cash crops grown on the farm. Mr. Floyd further explained that new growers growing tobac co for the first time in . 1939 would receive an allotment based on one-fifth of their planted acre age in 1939 and that allotments for small farmers will be calcu lated comparable with larger farms then would be increased by 20% but would not be increas- 1 ed above the acreage which would normally yield in excess of 3200 pounds of tobacco, with this in crease being available only to small farms on which there is a producer that does not operate, control, direct, or share in the proceeds of other farms. Mr. Floyd further explained that the 1940 .allotments would be based on acres and not on pounds as in 1938 and that a farmer would be permitted to , market tax free all tobacco pro duced on the allotted acreage. Therefore, there will be no sale or exchange of marketing cards I permitted. While further explaining the amendments to the Act, Mr. j Floyd stated that; there would be a flat penalty of 10c per pound on all sales of tobacco in excess ' of the actual production on the acreage allotment for the farm. He advised the farmers that he ' had heard reports to the effect that the Government closed the tobacco warehouses and to con tradict this statement, he presen i ted and read a letter to the group which was signed by James S. Ficklen, President of the Tobac co Association of the United States, which stated in part "The sales were actually suspended by [order of the Sales Committee of thee Tobacco Association of the United States. The Sales Com mittee took the position that the markets would be very much up set by the withdrawal tif this buying support. They felt that it was only fair to the farmers and everyone concerned to suspend operations temporarily while at temps were being made to secure the return to the markets of the Imperial Tobacco Company, and other British Companies or work out some other solution to the problem. The Sales Committee consulted the various Warehouse Organizations as well as certain Farm Leaders who agreed with i us in the matter of closing the 1 markets temporarily."
