COLLEGE PARLEY
TO HEAR WALLACE
Land Grant Association Will
Discuss Socio- Economic
Changes.

New elements in the social and eco
nomic situation and efforts of the
Government to meet them are among
the principal topics being taken up at
the forty-eighth annual convention of
the Association of Land Grant Col
leges and Universities, which opened
at the Willard Hotel today. A pro-
gram of addresses by Government ex-
perts marked the opening.
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
was to address a general session this
afternoon
At the opening meeting delegates
were present from each of the 48
States. These include the heads and
staffs Of the so-called land-grant COL
leges, or those which specialize in the
teaching Of agriculture, engineering
and home economics and receive Fed
eral aid.
Convention in Three Sections.
The convention has been divided
into three general sections-agricul-
SAASB 6AlCCA ol1O
with the section of agriculture divided
into three subsections.
Chester c. Davis, head of the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Administration,
in addressing the extension section of
the agricultural group called upon the
delegates to join with the A. A. A. in
promoting "a thoroughgoing educa-
tional program which will lay out
clearly and vigorously the funda-
mentals of production adjustment"
This need, Davis said, is based upon
the fact the program for agriculture
of the future will contain as one of
its integral parts definite provision for
production planning and adjustment :"
Bankhead Act Defended.
A spirited defense of the Bankhead
cotton act was made by Gully A. Cobb,
chief Of the A. A. A. cotton section,
who only recently was mildly rebuked
by Secretary Wallace for appealing to
farmers for a continuation of the act
next year.
Cobb told the extension section:
ITO any one with sense of history
it would seem that the Bankhead act
is the elimination of years of cropping
after a plan.
Il think every realistic person
will agree that the degree of success
in the adjustment program would have
been less if the Bankhead act had not
been enacted to supplement the
efforts under the agricultural ad-
justment act"
Wallace has several times said the
administration must remain neutral
on whether the act shall be carried
into next year, saying that question is
one for the farmers to decide in a
referendum next month.

SEED GRAINS TO
BE TREATED SOON
HELD IN COUNTIES OF STATE,
SAYS SAM SLOAN

MONTANA STATE COLLEGE)
Treatment of all seed grain in Mon
tana will be encouraged in cam
paign to be conducted by the federal
sed stocks committee during Deem
Der, in an effort to control cereal
diseases. Starting early in December,
educational meetings will be held in
counties of the state. at which the
treating program will be explained
and blanks requesting seed treatment
distributed to farmers, Sam L. Sloan,
chairman of the state seed stocks
committee, who will supervise the
program, said.
The campaign will not be confined
to seed purchased and held by the seed
stocks committee but will be encourag-
ed for all grain in all parts TO the state.
Where requests for treatment in one
locality justify, the organization will
work with the county drouth commit
tees and elevators, where emergency
seed is stored, in setting up a central
treating plant. Committee officials are
of the opinion that such plants will
prove more economical and efficient
than treatment on the farms.
In addition to farm seed stocks,
drouth areas will require 1,161 900 BUSH
els of wheat, 2lO5OO bushels of oats and
101 500 bushels of barley, a seed re-
quirement survey has revealed. The
bulk of this seed will be supplied
through the emergency seed program.

by the county drouth committees.
