The establishment of tobacco
bases on the diffemt farms for
the -987 program will be baaed on
Hm h«im established under the
AAA program, subject to such
mAjmrfmania as the committeemen
i «inrf necessary to make the bases
fair and equitble.
The committees will be called
in on certain days to hear any
requests from the farmers in the
different townships as to changes
to in their bases for the year. The
I for the committee meeting
i* for a certain .township will be
■nnnnnppH at th« community or
township meetings, so be present
and find out when your commit
tee will meet to hear your re
quest
Itis requested that anyone who
wtahtf to "V lrn a request for an
adjustment it on the day
ppwiftpjl, bcause the committee
will be hearing requests from
other townships after that day.
* On the day scheduled for your
township, your community and
Mid win give your bass careful
consideration. Of course, this
does not mean that they will be
qMa to grant every request made,
bat they will do the best they
can with the bases allotted to the
county in both acres and pounds.
Community Meetings.
During the next week, we hope
to hold local meetings in each
township to discuss the 1937
program. The dates of all these
meetings will be worked out later
and each grower within the town
ship will be notified.
We feel that where there is a
* better understanding of the pro
gram the individual grower will
be in a better position to comply
with the program and earn the
full amount.
