The high prices paid for tobacco on the market last year has been supplemented by adjustment pay ments of the AAA on 1934 tobacco contracts. Checks totaling <5,344,699 hav% been sent to North Carolina growers. Of this amount IS0.444 will come to tobacco contract signers of 1934 in Person County. The contract calls for an adjustment payment based on the net sale value of the con tract signer's 1934 crop. If the grower's crop sold for an average price of more than twenty-one cents, the payment is calculated on the value of the crop at twenty one cents per pound. For contract signers whose base acreage is four acres or more, the contract pro vides a payment at the rate of 12 1-2 per cent. For signers whose base acerage is less than four acres, the contract provides that the -ate of payment shall increase one-half of one per cent .'or each 1-10 of an acre decrease below four acres, ex cept that the maximuir. rate of the payment shall not exceed 25 per cent. The adjustment payment also in cludes the "deficiency payment" of two cents for each pound of tobac co that the amount of tobacco mar keted under a contract fell short of the initial production allotment. md C.

School Increase Amendment Lost By Slim Majority Amendment To Increase An nual Public Appropria tion To $22,000,000 Is Defeated In House The House of Representatives Thursday defeated the Hutchins amendment to increase public school funds of $22,000,000 annually by a vote of 66-47 and sent the bill to the Senate. The bill as it now stands car ries provisions for a twenty per cent raise in all teachers salaries and all other state" employees for the first year and twenty-five per cent increase the second year. The Governor can increase the first year salaries of all. employees twenty five per cent, if the revenues just ify it. The only victory of the school folks of the day came when they offered an amendment to give preference to teachers in the event of the tweny-flve per cent increase the first year. The school forces were de feated as charges of chicanery, at tempted intimidation, untrust worthiness, and psychological agi tation were thrown at the head of Representative Ralph McDonald of Forsyth, floor leader of those who sought to increase the annual ap propriation. They were answered by charges of pandering to bond-hold ers, thrown back at the adminis tration and those who sought to protect the Appropriations Com mittee figures from increases. o M. P.
