' '^en a baby under four or an elderly person over 65 is killed by an automobile, the dwnces are greater than six out of ten that it be a case of being struck down by a modem jehu.

E. Y. Floyd, AAA executive officer at State College, advising that any combiner, processor or grower of wheat should approach his coun^ AAA office for adminstrative details of the marketing quota program im mediately, today offered this outline of facts: The non-allotment farmer who harvests wheat in excess of his usual acreage and the allotment farmer who seeded in excess of his alloted acreage must “clear” theinselves with AAA authorities - - either by paying the penalty of 49 cents a bushel on excess wheat or by providing satis factory removal of the overage from trade channels - before they may receive marketir.g cards. Unless the farmer can show his marketing card, Floyd said, the buyer or combiner will know that the offered is subject to penalty. Buyer and producer of wheat sold without marketing card will be joint ly liable for payment of penalty. Ac tion will be taken by the office of the U. S. Attorney General in Federal Court if the penalty established for the individual farm is not paid within 60 days after completion of the har vest. If the producer shows a marketing card, however, the buyer or combiner will know that the wheat may be liandled penalty-free. Special arrangements will be made to accommodate growers who market wheat by telephone or mail, Floyd said.
