Liberal Feature In Bill !

Since about 95 per cent of the,: growers in North Carolina have,1 signed the reduction agreements al-.1 ready and since the crop is being : greatly curtailed by weather condi-. i tions. it is not believed that the i production in North Carolina will j be substantially less this year than (i it would have been without enact-, I ment of the law. However, it is expected that not to exceed ten per I cent of the tobacco produced in the state will have to pay the tax, the 1 exact amount being determined by 8 . iroMna J OF FOR HOUS 1.

Last year the production in the itate was 556,000,000 pounds, an ablormally large amount. Kerr Makes Prediction I Representative John H. Kerr, the' luthor of the bill, today issued a I statement following its final passage in which he predicted that the law will result in an average price if not less than 20 cents for the STorth Carolina tobacco crop in 1934. But aside from what the law may >r may not do in regarc. to decreasing production or raising prices, and its sponsors are certain it will do ioth, it seems quite certain that the law will to a large extent eliminate the condition which was responsible for its introduction. The 95 per cent of the farmers who had signed reduction agreements felt that it was a manifest Injustice for the five per cent who had not benefitted more than they did themselvts by the cooperative effort. It was that sort of a situation which was primarily responsible for the failure of the old Tri State Cooperative Association ana under the agricultural adjustment act of last year the government sought to eliminate such a condition through benefit and rental payments. This year tobacco farmers who cooperate will receive rentals of $15 Dr $20 an acre on all land removed from production and will also receive adjustment payments of 121-2 per cent. Despite these advantages, however, there was much apprehension concerning the probability of resentment because of the opportunity for farmers not co-operating to produce on an unrestricted basis. Strongly Supported That feeling has been responsible for the zeal with which the measure has been urged by farmers, the department of agriculture and all of the members of the House and Senate from tobacco growing states. Including Senator Byrcl of Virginia,! who opposed the Bankhead cotton bill. Senator Bailey of North Caro- 1 lina, who also opposed the Bankhead bill, was less active for the ' Kerr bill than was Senator Byrd, | but did much valuable work in getting other Senators to withdraw objections. Real Achievement Passage Monday, despite legislative jam that tied up all other similar matters in the Senate was a real achievement, representative Kerr, who stayed on the Senate J floor nrnotioallv all of thn time Sat urday from the convening at 9 o'clock in the morning until the recess Just before midnight, was there Monday when the Senate met at noon. When the conference report on the deficiency bill was presented, Senator Ellison D. Smith of South Carolina, sponsor of the bill in the Senate, got the consen t of the leaders to make the tobacco bill the unfinished business of the Senate, with in understanding tha t he would HE WARREN RECORE 'FICIAL DEMOCRATK IE OF REPRESENT AT) INSTRUCT idate on the ballot make a cross ce or wrongly mark this ballot, i 1TATIVES For MEMBER OF OF COUNTY CON (Vote for 1 r. l. capps john c. pow . q r. e. davis 1-1 s. d. king ORDER'S u q __ :n For CORC (Vote for ( j-j frank m. ai jasper w. s] Q 30, 1934. < Chairman of County Boa 'only consume a few minutes. ea The Senate rapidly adopted all di the amendments, incuding those er | urged by the department and two lis urged by Senator Byrd. One of Se these abolished the provision for a to penalty of one year imprisonment gl for failing to file a return or filing K a false return, leaving a fine of a\ $1,000 as punishment. Another de provision, however, providing a fine tl of $1,000 or imprisonment for six months, or both, for violating any hi provision of the act was left undis- m turbed. si Senator Fletcher also got through bc an amendment to permit somewhat ?I heavier importations of tobacco le from Cuba. Senator Smith also *r tried to get through an amendment (to the AAA act of last year, providing for notices of hearing before de issuing licenses, but Senator Byrd refused to let that amendment go S1 through. 111 No Debate In House ce When the bill went back to the ?

However, when the motion to concur was made by Representative Hampton P. Fulmer of South Carolina, it provoked no debate whatever. V A movement was also started to resurrect the Brynes bill providing for the grading by the federal gov- ie; ernment of all tobacco sold on warehouse floors. Representative Hancock of North Carolina, Vinson fj] of Kentucky and Burch and Flan- w] nagan of Virginia went to the Senate and got assurance that the bill would be passed there if sent over co from the House and got permission eg from Speaker Rainey for Represent- fo ative Fulmer to be recognized to ^ move to suspend the rules and pass the bill. However, that attempt was abandoned, as Mr. Brynes, himself, th wanted several amendments to the to bill. cr The Flannaigan bill to license warehouses, which completed the proposed tobacco regulatory pro- su gram, never got out of committee. Kerr's Statement jn Representative Kerr issued the following statement on his bill: i am nigniy gratified tnat tne th Senate, despite an almost unprece- QU dented jam of legislation passed the = I bill which I introduced and the [House passed to provide further , control of acreage and provide in- I creased benefits to the growers.
