Growers Benefit
From the AAA
Reduction Program
Cotton and tobacco growers in
North Carolina have received close
to $8,500,000 from the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration for re
ducing their crops this year.
Up to August 1, a total of 62,160
checks for $1,827,084.15 had been
mailed to cotton growers as rental
payments, according to Dean I. 0.
Schaub, of State College.
Growers who took options on gov
ernment cotton had received around
$1,500,000 by the end of July, bring
ing the total payments to cotton
growers up to $3,300,000.
The latest tabulation on tobacco
showed that rental and benefit pay
ments to growers of Burley and of
flue-cured tobacco in North Caro
lina aggregated ?o,0d6,ut>l.4o, uie
dean said.
North Carolina's tobacco payments
were larger than those of any other
State and amounted to almost half
of the $11,092,424.45 which has been
paid to growers throughout the to
bacco growing area of the South.
The cotton rental payments now
being made are part of the first
installments of $50,000,000 to grow
ers who reduced their acreage.
Another $50,000,000 will be paid aft
er compliance with the adjustment
contracts has been properly certified.
The compliance work is well under
way, Schaub said.
Payments to corn and hog grow
ers who signed reduction contracts
will start in the near future. The
contracts have not all passed final
approval. The corn-hog campaign
was not pushed vigorously in North
Carolina, the dean explained, since
there is no hog surplus within the
State.
Endorse State And
Government Program
Resolutions adopted at Farm and
Home week at State College this
year included hearty endorsement of
^ ? r\-f
government crop ojuuui auu VX Mtv I
State program for rural electrifica
tion.
Both of these measures were seen
as vital to advancement in the mi
mediate future. Recommendation of
higher teachers' salaries and improv
er school facilities for the children
looked further ahead in the develop
ment of men and women of tomor
row. ? J
A "fairer system of taxation," with
provisions that up to $1,000 be ex
empted from tax on the value of
homesteads, higher tax rates on big
incomes and inheritances, and strict
er regulation of bond issues and deht
making the public officers were ap
proved as set forth in the proposed
new State constitution.
Farmers of the State were urged
to adopt soil and forestry conser
vation practices and to cooperate
with the College Extension Service
in developing permanent and effec
tive farm organizations.
Acreage control does not decrease
the need for cooperation marketing
and baying, the farmers pointed out
in support given the farmers' co
operative movement by President
Frank Graham of the University of
North Carolina and by the State Col
lege Extension Service.
The farmers stood solidly behind
the State department of agriculture
in the insistance that all relief cat
tle coining into this State most first
pass the tests for health certificates.
