Secretary Wallace Monday called >r the destruction of ten million cres of growing cotton in a long- | XH ?r~~~ S "1 1 5 NTERE5 LUCY 1 limbed experiment to curb produc- : tion and reduce the potential sur- '] plus of the South's big mcney crop.' 1 The secretary announced that 1 maximum processing taxes about i 4.1 cents a pound on the basis of < present price relationships?would : be levied beginning August 1 to fi- 1 nance the program under which growers will be asked to plow up { portions of their crop in return for } rental benefits payments and the ( right to obtain options on govern- j ment-owned cotton. A campaign will be started in the South next Monday when growers y will be asked to sign contracts to ^ rent cotton lands at from $6 an acre up, depending on the average ^ ? -* ""'i ootimQfo^ nrnrinn pttSl/ yiCiua anu covuumwu ^ tion of the land this year. ^ Farmer Has Choice \ The farmer can either offer to j take an outright cash payment for plowing up portions of his crop or f :an take a smaller rental and cb- j tain in addition an option on about . 1,400,000 bales in an amount equal ;o the estimated output of the land ie retires from production. These options will be offered him it six cents a pcund or nearly three tents below the current market price. He may order these options ixercised at any time up to next January, his profit being the difference between the six cents and the price cotton is selling for at ;he time he sells. Up To Growers Wallace said operation of the vhole plan was contingent upon ;he degree of cooperation shown by growers during the week's campaign o obtain contracts. Unless Wallace is certain that he :an take a large amount of cotton >ut of production, equivalent to at east 2,000,000 bales production, he s not prepared to proceed further vith the plan. However, he indicated that he vas confident of the success of the :ampaign and his associates said here was virtually no doubt but hat the plan would be employed ind that about $100,000,000 would >e distributed in rentals to growers n the next few months." Acquiring Surplus Wallace will use about $54,000,000 from the $200,000,000 made avail-1 ible by the farm act and subseluent laws to acquire full title to :otton on which government loans vere made by the Farm Board and )ther agencies. He is making setilement for the cctton, which is! mder the control of the new farm iredit administration, at the rate >f 9 1-2 cents a pound. Wallace, in whose name the pool :otton will be held, may sell any jortion of it he desires up to March L, 1936, when the law requires that le must complete disposition of it. While fixing a 2,000,000 bale minmum, Wallace hopes to take out )f production land capable of proiucing at least 3,000,000 bales. When the contract offers to be fathered up during the campaign lave been brought together, the jfficial decision will be made as to ! vhich shall be accepted. The campaign will be handled by ;xtension workers and other agri:ultural officials and will involve iontact with nearly 2,000,000 cotton producers. The drive will be conlucted on a county basis with an ;ffort made to distribute rental payments as widely as possible in >rder to make the moneys serve he purpose of widespread business stimulation. On Yield Basis ; Yields vary widely in cotton, the tverage production being about 1-3 >f a bale to the acre.

The pre-war average is about 12 L-2 cents and the average farm price for cotton during the first part of June was 4.1 cents less than ;hat, which would make the latter sum the amount of the tax, if it vent into effect at once. Wallace said that in fixing the ;ax rate he would use the most resent figures on average farm prices, pre-war prices and other data supplied by the bureau of agricultural sconomics. He intends, if possible, to give it least ten days notice of the tax ate, which may be based on the pureau's figures for the average prices between June 15 and July .5 as that period will be the most ecent for which statistics will have seen compiled when the tax rate is innounced.
