BANKHEAD LAW.
Cotton Crop Reduction
Wins Approval Of Mid
South Growers


ATLANTA, Ga, June %. -
(UP).-A general attitude of
friendliness toward the Bankhcad
cotton control act is apparent in
the niid-south two months after
the program for compulsory re-
duction Of Dixie's biggest crop
became law. ....
All sources close to farmers re-
port majority of cotton grow
ers in favor of giving the pro-
gram a thorough try-out. eau
ticusly. many growers are with
holding wholehearted approval
until they see what the bill ac-
tually accomplishes.
There is a general feeling, too,
that the Bankhead act won't get
much of a chance. to show what
it can do this year because I'M
favorable spring weather has left
little OF no excess crop for the
government plan to curtail.
Heavy rains and cool weather
for the last several weeks in most
sections of the south, coupled
with the destructive boil weevil,
have so retarded the growth Of
cotton that numerous growers
won't be able to gin near as
much cotton as their allotment
under the new reduction pro-
gram.
Georgia commissioner of Agri-
culture G.. G. Adams has estimat-
ed that even with average wealth
er for the. remainder of the sea-
son Georgia's cotton crop can t
be more than IS per cent Of nor
NAL.
r. f. Palmer, a cotton grower
and ginner of Glasscock county,
Georgia, told the United Press
the weather had cut the crop in
his county by at least half. with
no prospects that any farmer
would be axle to gin near his al
lotment under the Bankhead bill.
"We're all willing to cooperate. "
he said, "but there won't be any
need for it in our county this
year."
Alabama Commissioner of Ag-
riculture Seth p. Storrs reported
Alabama farmers, big and little,
pleased with the higher prices
the crop control plans already
have brought. lie added that
present indications arc Alahama'S
cotton crop will not come up to
its $4,000 bale quota because Of
excess rains and boil wcevil inTa-
sion.

ator John II. Raul;hcad, who
sponsors. the compulsory reduc-
ton measure. Assistant County
Agricultural Agent =. II. Orr re-
ported fully 60 per cent of cot
ton farmers favorable to the act.
He said the few who were dis
satisfied resented the mandatory
features of the bill and felt that
voluntary reductions plans would
have accomplished the purpose.

When at the wharf l stand and

Take on the cargoes waiting at

See yawning hold and giant

Its echo rings through every

Both ships and sailors ache for

A kindred haste throbs some

The years strait shores press

Another soap which is meeting
with much favor, is one made OF
purified wool fat-the fat that is
closer to the natural skin oil
than any other. This soap may
be used on any type of skin to
advantage, but my personal feel
ing is that dry and normal skins
benefit by 1t most, Oily skins,
that is, excessively oily skins,
should use a soap more on the
type featured recently.
Either Of these soaps makes an
