Washington, April 8.?Without a
dissenting vice, moiO than 100
growers, warehousemen, bankers,
business men and members of Con
gress from flue-cured tobacco areas
today gave their wholehearted ap
proval to a program of six AAA
tobacco amendments, and 'flared the
way for their passage at this session
|of Congress.
I Adoption of at least a three-year
control program was urged em
phatically as the group enthusias
tically endorsed plans to strengthen
the tobacco control program.
Provision of additional .penalties
for warehousemen failing to coop
erate fn the program was added to
the five amendments which previ
ously had received the tentative en
dorsement of Congressmen from to
bacco districts.
Confident predictions of favorable
Congressional action no the pro
posed amendments at this session
were voiced by Representative
Harold D. Cooley, who presided
and by Representative Lindsay
Warren, John H. Kerr and others
who joined in the conclave.
Several suggestions advanced
from the floor on methods of im
proving the language of the pro
posed amendments were adopted.
As soon as the^e can be drafted into
legislative form, the amendments
will be placed before Congress and
it is planned for the House agricul
ture committee to take almost im
mediate action. ? .

ECONOMY BLOC ROUTED
FARM AID WILL WIN
RELIEF MAY NEED MORE j
FILIBUSTER IS CERTAIN
TWO COURT DECISIONS
NEW PENSION BILL ;;
BATTLE OF THE PLANES
'
The economy drive in Copgress,
spectacularly exhibited in the House,
is m full retreat, fighting a rear
guard action to prevent expenditures
from exceeding estimates of the Bu
reau of the Budget, which set the
figure of S8,464,000,000 for the fiscal
year 1941.
The House drive floundered when
$164,560,000 was removed from the
budget estiamte of $780,924,000 for
the department of agriculture. As
passed by the House, the bill was
far below the $1,300,000,000 avail
able for the present fiscal year. No
sooner had the House acted than a
nation-wide demand for increased
funds for agriculture was mobilized.
When the measure came before the
Senate, provision for farm parity
payments and funds for surplus crop
disposal were added, increasing the
total of the House-approved meas
ure by $299,000,000.
Final disposition of the agricul
tural appropriation bill is in the
hands of a conference committee,
which is attempting to conciliate
House and Senate differences. It
is safe to assume that when the
conference report is submitted to the
houses, it will include the Senate
additions. Little doubt is expressed
but that the House will approve the
free conference report.
Another troublesome appropriation
will soon be an issue in the House
when the reduced relief appropria
tion bill comes up for consideration.
The Budget Bureau recommended
?1,000",000,000 for 1941 but this r has
been assailed by many mayors, labor
leaders and others as inadequate to
meet relief needs. Economy bloc
leaders fear that a combination of
farm and relief votes will provide a
coalition- which will win the fight for
a larger fund for relief and fatal
aid. If this happens, and it seems
certain to occur, all economies here
tofore reported will .be wiped out and
those advocating retrenchment of
governmental spending will have the
time of their lives trying to prevent
appropriations from exceeding bud
get figures.
The anti-lynch bill, voted out by
the Senate Judiciary Committee and
already approved by the House, will
undoubtedly run into a prolonged dis
cussion on the floor of the Senate.
Plans of the leaders for an early
adjournment will be jeopardized un
less cloture is applied to limit debate j
and force a vote on the measure
which meets with such strenuous ob
jection from Southern Senators.
The Southerners make much of
the contention that lynching is
gradually dying out, that the Fed
eral statute, is unnecessary and that
it is an affront to the South, de
signed solely to secure the Negro
vote in Northern and Western states.
In the filibuster against the anti
lynching bill in 1938, the effort to in
voke the cloture rule lost, 42-46.
A two-thirds vote is required and
the rule has been invoked only four
times since it was enacted to prevent
unusual delays to legislation during
the World War. In 1938, the Re
publicans voted against cloture but
this time Senator McNary, minority
leader, states that he will not pledge
his party against the cloture rule.

The decision of the Supreme
Court that the Methyl Gasoline Cor
poration violated the Anti-Trust laws
through a system of licensing driv
ers, under its patents, to sell and
distribute gasoline treated with the
"anti-knock" compound, is expected
to have a far-reaching effect. While
tite : Court held that the company
could lawfully license sellers of its
products, it was pointed out that
throhgh the policy the company ac
quired vast frbtential power to regu
? late prices and trappre^ competition,
which, it said, could not be counten

not, in its. regulatory scneme, anan

tion." The intention of Congress, it
said, was to permit a licensee who
did not'interfere electrically with
other broadcasters to survive or suc
cumb 'according to his ability to
make his programs attractive to the
public.
This decision seems to confirm the
right of the FCC to grant permits
for new broadcasting stations when
ever possible without interfering
| with existing wave lengths. The
Court insisted that economic injury
i to a rival station is not an element
to be considered by the Commission
in acting upon an application for a
broadcasting license.
The House World War Veterans'
Committee has favorably reported a
bill to provide pensions for depend
ent widows and children of World
War veterans. It is estimated to ac
quire an outlay of |25,000,000\for the
first year by Brig. Gem. Frank T.
Hines, head of the Veterans' Admin
t istration. ,
I ' i
I " ___
To be eligible for the pension, wid
ows and children must be dependent
and benefits would not accrue to a
widow without a child unless she
married the veteran prior to July 3,
1919. Payments are provided for a
widow without child, $20 a month;
with one child, $26; and $4 for each
additional child: an orphan child, $12;
two orphan children, $18; three or
phan children, $24;' dependent fath
er or mother $20, or $16' each or
both.
The bill was described by Robert
IC. Luchars, National Commander of
the American Veterans' Association,
I as an "election year assault on the
? Treasury", and the inception of a
general pension system, which, al
! leges, will eventually coat -the coun
try $85J)00,000. Mr. Luchars, whose
organization opposes indiscriminate
pension legislation, says that Con
gress should rectify "the $38 pittance
now being paid monthly to widows of
men who died in battle."
Representative John G. Rankin of
Mississippi, who introduced the meas
j ure, believes it will not cost more than
' six or eight million dollars the first
year and predicts that if passed by
Cbngress, the measure will be signed
by the President

"Mass production is bringing down

improvement or economy made avail

Three Important 4-H
Announcements Made
L. R. Harrell, State 4-H Club lead
er, comes forward this week with
three important announcements re
garding the 4-H program in North
Carolina. The first is that 4-H
Church Sunday will be observed on 1
April 28; another is that a Dairy
Foods Demonstration Contest will be
conducted for 4^H members of the
State this year; and the third is that
loans of ad much as $76 are available
to club members through the Farm
Security Administration's Rural Re
habilitation program.
The 4-H Church Sunday is an an
nual event, and last year Harrill says
he received reports at the State Col
lege office of 39 organized programs
presented by county (and community
groups. These ranged from the pre
paration and distribution of the
church bulletin, to the presentation of
special music, giving inspirational
talks, acting as ushers, taking up
the collection, conducting Vesper ser
vices, placing flowers in the church,
and beautifying the church grounds.
