Cotton Vote
December 13
Cotton growers witl make an
important decision on Tuesday,
December 13, 1960, D. B. Blalock,
Chairman of the Cleveland Coun
ty Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Committee, reminds
farmers.
On that day, growers will vote
in a referendum to decide wheth
er marketing quotas will be inj
effect for their 1961 upland cot- I
ton crop. All farmers who engag
ed in the production of upland
cotton or who had cotton acreage
in the Soil Bank in 1960, will be
eligible to vote in the referendum, i
"If at least two-thirds of the
growers voting approve the quo-!
tas,” Mr. Blalock explains, "mar-:
keting quotas will be in effect on;
all farms growing upland cotton
in 1961 and penalties will apply
on ‘excess’ cotton.
“By complying with the farm
allotment, a grower will be eligi
ble for price support at the full
level available — not more than
90 nor less than 70 percent of
parity in 1961.
"If more than one-third of the
growers disapprove quotas, there
will be no marketing quotas or,
penalties, allotments will remain
■ in effect, and price supports to
1 eligible growers will drop to 50
percent of parity. |
"In either case, acreage allot-!
mlents of some kind will continue
| in effect for the 1961 cotton crop
as a means of determining eligi
| bility for the available price sup
i port” I
The Chairman pointed out that
j legislation directs the Secretary
of Ajgriculure to proclaim mar
keting quotas for the next upland
cotton crop when the cotton sup
| ply exceeds normal. Quotas are
j not put into operation, however,
i unless they are approved hy at
; least two-thirds the growers:
i voting in a referendum on the
I question.

Russell Heads
Methodist Men
Some 30 men of Central Mfeth-j
odist church met in the Fellow-j
ship Hall for supper Monday at
6:30 p. m. and formally organiz-l
ed a Methodist Mien’s organiza
tion, electing W. A. (Bill) Russell
as president.
The group also heard a humor
ous after-dinner speech by Rev.
L. B. Laye, Methodist minister of
Cliffside, on the theme: “Humor
Can Be Clean.”
"Many persons think that
a joke, in order to be funny, has
to be vulgar or contain vile lan-!
guage,” Rev. Mr. Laye told the!
group. "But that is not true. Hu
mor in which you make yourself
the butt of, or your wife or child
ren, can get more laughs than
any," he said, and continued to
prove his point with many witty
anecdotes.
Other officers elected were Paul
Walker, vice-president; Howard
K. Bryant, secretary; Jacob Dix
on, treasurer; and C. T. Carpen-j
ter, Jr., reporter.
The group voted to hold the
charter open until the February
meeting and President Russell
urged all present to contact oth
er men in the Church to ask them
to join. The fourth Monday night
in the school-year months was
selected as the regular meeting
night, with no meeting schedul
ed for next month.
Paul Walker was temporary
chairman for the meeting, which
was scheduled when some 20 lay
men in the church met in late Oc
tober to discuss formation of the
fellowship. "Methodist Men is a
church-wide organization begun
in 1942," Rev. H. D. Garmon,
pastor, said. “It presents a chal
lenge calling laymen to a new
way of life — one that will find
its way into the business world
and in the social contacts of its
members. It points a way of life
to be led every day of the week.
Men must not be guilty of passing
the plate on Sunday, then passing
the buck the rest of the week.

Brimful sugar bowl — even
without Cuba. That’s the outlook
for the U. S. in 1961. Other sugar
producing nations will supply
more than enough to take care
of shipments once made by
Cuba. More than two dozen
countries have applied to ship
sugar to the U. S. next year.
U. S. dairy farmers stand to
make more money on the whole
in 1961, predicts USDA, prices to
farmers and to customers will be
a bit higher early in the year.
People can’t be isolated from
the farm! For every farmer to
day, there are two people em
ployed in a business which is de
pendent on the farmer.
