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.
