Seek Way to Save
Tobacco Control
Hancock Confers With The
President On Steps To Be
Taken If AAA Ends?
Manufacturers May Sue
For Taxes Paid
Washington, July 19.?The administration
was disclosed today
to be considering steps that may
be taken to continue the tobacco
control program in the event the
AAA is unconstitutional.
Linked with the problem was
the possibility that, if processing
taxes are held illegal, tobacco
companies may seek to recover
under the George Amendment
to the AAA bill adopted
todc.y by the Senate opening the
courts to processors who have
not passed the levy on to producers
or consumers.
A check-up at the AAA disclosed
that $48,469,115 has beer
collected in processing taxes or
tobacco up to last May 31. There
has been little fluctation in the
price of cigarettes since the AAA
and tobacco producers have received
far excess for their crops
than what they did before the
control program.
Benefit payments to co-operating
growers totalled $36,646,400
through last May 31.
The future of the tobacco program,
considered one of the most
successful under the AAA, was
discussed at a lengthy conference

Clark Attacks
i New Weed Bill
Attempts To Eliminate The
Compulsory Features Of
Flannagan Measure
Washington, Jyly 5.?An attempt
to eliminate compulsory
features of the Flannagan tobacco
inspection and grading bill
was made today as the house
j contiued consideration of the
| measure.
Opponents planned an amendment
striking out all compulsory
features and the provision for
! penalties.
Led by Rep. Clark, (D-N.C.);
! the opposition based its attack
on the contention the measure as
inow written would be unconsti!
tutional.
A colleague, Rep. Umstead,!
(D-N.C.), was to offer the emasculating
amendments.
"It is not interstate commerce j
to say this pile of tobacco is
grade four and this one is grade j
five" said Clark yesterday as he1
branded the measure "the most
; unconstitutional bill ever proposed1
in this house."
The measure would provide
compulsory grading on markets
designated by the agriculture secjretary,
but .producers would be
j permitted by referendum to dej
cide whether the majority wanted
| the service.
"I understand the bill provides
for the referendum, but the fact
remains that if a market has
I government grading it will be
I compulsory," Clark asserted.
The bill, offered by Rep. Flanjnagan,
(D-Va.), would apply only
j to auction tobacco markets.
One feature would be establishment
of a market news service
for the interchange of ini
formation on prices certain
grades of tobacco bring.

NINE
t
- today between President Roosevelt
and Representative Hancock,
Democrat, of North Carolina.
r Hancock, while declining to say
3 what suggestions were consider1
ed, said he and the President
t
exchanged ideas on tne whole
question.
I "The President knows as much
about the success of the tobacco
! program as anyone," the North
' Carolina representative added,
and with the great popularity
of the control plan, I am sure
every precaution will be taken to
safeguard it whatever may be
! the outcome of the AAA."
: He said if the program were
. permitted to lapse in the event
, of the unconstitutionality of the
AAA, a form of protest would
go up from tobacco growers who
, would demand some system of
control.
"We must be ready to meet
, any eventuality," Hancock con.
tinued. "It would be disatrous to
go back to the old days."
