ruling OPENS WAY
TO RUSH FARM AID
Wallace Orders Quick Action
After Import Taxes Are
Approved.
by the Associated Press.

Gy Iuc heeOtidtca 1Luoo.
The road to acreage reduction was
cleared of a major obstacle today and
Secretary Wallace directed all resources
at speeding application Of farm relief.
A State Department ruling, follow
ing upon considerable diplomatic con-
ferring abroad and urgent solicitation
by Wallace, removed the objection to
applying processing taxes on major
crops, so now a source OF funds to
finance comprehensive acreage reduc-
tions is available.
Import taxes to balance the domestic
processing levy had been regarded as
possible breach Of the world tariff truce,
but they were pronounced harmless.
Wallace's first step now is to COM
plete the roster Of administrators for
the many-sided farm act.
This win be followed by calls for
commodity meetings to draft pohces
for each product and to explore pos
sibilities Of cutting acreage this year.
Serves as Balance.
This is how the import tax enters
the picture:
Using wheat as an example, the farm
act provided that If a processing tax
Of 30 cents bushel was levied, COM

wheat. The present duty on wheat is
a. cents a bushel and an import tax
Of 80 cents would be added to that
and collected by the customs service
The State Department explained that
Norman H. Davis, President Roosevelt's
Ambassador at large, has discussed i'm
port tax at Geneva with the foreign
representatives gathered there. to ex-
plain that while the sum collected
would be equivalent to tariff. its ef-
feet would not be the same.
It would balance taxes on domestic
professors, thus leaving the importa-
tions Of basic commodities in the same
relative position to domestcally pro-
duced crops as they now bear.
d" without the processing taxes, Wallace
considered any broad program of
acreage reduction as impossible.
Wallace explained that when process
ing taxes are imposed, their applica-
ton will be gradual, with careful study
of their probable effect" Representa-
tives of organized wheat growers have
asked that they be applied to wheat by
August !.
Cotton Plan Delayed.
The ruling was regarded as having
slowed up the prospect of new farm
legislation" proposed yesterday by
group of Southern Senators who called
on Wallace and asked that a cotton
acreage curtailment program be adopted
for this years crop.
Senator Smith, Democrat, Of South
Carolina, had said he would offer an
amendment to the $4,000, ,000,000 in
dustrial-public works bill now pending,
to set aside $500, 100000 for Wallace's
use, but at that time he assumed
processing taxes could not be levied.
Smith said reduction of the planted

cetton area Is IAN absolute necessity
this year. He proposed that farmers
be paid about $40 an acre FOR plowing
I'D parts of their cotton fields.
In addition they would be given
options on cotton on which Govern
ment loans have been made. The
options would be for an amount equal
to the estimated production Of the area
retired from use.
They would have the right to exer-
else these options up to January /,
1884. Any price increase from the
time the option was arranged at the
current market price until the time 1t
was exercised would be an additional
reward to farmers for acreage re-
Meantime, wallace's coterie Of ad-
ministrators was growing. He expected
arrival today of c. A. Cobb, Atlanta
farm editor, to take the post OF cotton
production administrator.
Prof. M. L. Wilson of Montana State
College was on the job as wheat-pro-
duction administrator. They will have
charge Of relations with growers Of
these commodities.

Sheppard, until two years ago vice
president of the Cudahy Packing Co.,
will handle trade agreements with
packing concerns aimed to eliminate

having depressing effect on prices.
His efforts to obtain agreements may
be extended to cattle and sheep, al

as basic commodities" in the act, but

GERMANY CAN 7
PAY IN GOLD

A warning that Germany may
not be able to meet its short and
long-term private credits to this
country in gold unless the United
States and the rest of the world
increase the purchase of German
exports was sounded today by DR..
Hjalmar Schacht, president OF
the German ReichSbank.
Here to confer with President
Roosevelt as the personal repre-
sentative of Chancellor Adolf Hit
Ter, the German financier declared
Germany was willing to pay its
debts, but that it's ability to do so
depended upon export trade.
He pointed out the gold cover
age of the German mark was only
per cent and that Germany may
not have enough gold to purchase
foreign currency with which to
meet it's obligations unless it is
able to increase it's export sales
and thus obtain foreign currency
in return.
He declared, however, Germany
was determined to meet the pay
mentS in marks if it could not do
so in gold or foreign currency.

presidents Of the club, and Oscar
Reichow, president Of the Los Angeles
baseball club, which is affiliated with
