Fanner Who Signs Will Be Paid More For His Weed Crop Tlie taMmco'grower "riQio signs the reduction agreement offered by the Agricultural Adjustment Administra tion ‘will get more money for his tobacco tide fall and in 1934 and 1935. This is the avowed policy of the AAA as expressed by Chester Davis, chief of the production office, in a statement sent to the North Carolina State College Extension Service last week. Mr. Davis and his association J. B. Hutson, chief of the tobacco section, assure the “small” grower producing from 4 to 5 acres that his interests will be protected. The two officials also assure the man whose crop was cut seriously laet year due to blue mold, frost and other damage that his interest will be protected. But the two men are equally as emphatic in saying that payment, benefits will go only to the man who signs the agreement. In other words, the AAA must have hearty and full cooperation before it can do anything in bringing tobacco prices up to parity with the things a fanner has to buy. During the week of September 11, tobacco fanners in North Carolina furnished a notable example of how growers would cooperate with one another and with the government by their complete willingness to sign the reduction agreements leaving to be solved Inter some of the perplex ing questions which naturally arose.
