Sharply in value today as a result OF
the government report showing farm

countered on the bulge carried the mar

IDENTIFY no fears OF airy difficulty in
getting all the material they need and
at their own figures. They are credited
with not yet taking seriously the move
ment in the belt to reduce acreage, de-
spite continued progress toward the
achievement Of the plan, according to

The delayed start in pitching the new
crop also seems to fall on deaf ears, al
though it is expected to be noticed
more If there is not an immediate
change for the better in weather.
Holders Of spots are showing unex-
pected powers Of independence and the
most effective steps toward cutting
acreage are expected to come from them
and those who are financing them. The
feeling that the success Of cutting
acreage plans are just as closely allied
with prices for another crop as with
that to be received for unsold portion of
the old one Is counted on to get results.
The fact that the bulk of the unsold
supply was sold by the producer at high
prices and that he is not so much af-
fected by the present low levels and
may not be so anxious to reduce acre
age is expected to be offset by the firm
