Potato control Is much more
sound in pr@ciple than the cotton
program, because al Of the pota-
toes grown in the United States
are consumed here" Tandy point
ed out. we do not have to con-
slider world prices, while with cot
ton we are dependent on export
trade for the market Of half our
production.
Another reason we need some
sort OF control on potatoes In that
the forced reduction OF other crops
has caused q tremendous increase
In potato acreage. For instance,
due to the corn and hog reduction
program, Iowa has increased her
potato acreage 81 percent. Obvious
ly. this iS not Just for the states
which depend largely on potatoes
for their money crop"
In q letter TO Congressman NIL
ton II. West, Tandy urged tmme-
date study OF conditions In the
Valley In order TO prevent confu-
sion during the marketing season
In December.
With planting ready TO begin
within q few days, 1t is essential.
he pointed out 70 Congressman
West TO find out Immediately Just
what the potato control bill is. and
how It Is to be administered. The
bill goes into effect Dec. I. Just Is
the harvesting season begins I'm the
Valley, a situation that has caused
considerable worry on the part OF
Valley planters, Tandy said.
II ask that you take the matter
I'D with Secretary Wallace. fl or
der to acuuaint him with the fact
that we will begin harvesting pota-
toes soon after Dec. ! and thereby
avoid the delays which caused 20
much trouble at the beginning Of
the Bankhead Cotton Act" Tandy
asked In his letter 70 West.
Quota Restrictions Unreasonable
The Valley planter finds 1t un-
reasonable that growers n the
United States who harvest potatoes
during December, January and
February should be subject 70
quotas, while Cuba would be per-
mitted to import potatoes into the
United States without quotas.
An excerpt from the Potato
World. which was forwarded to
West by Tandy. says. In explanation
or the potato law. There shall be
no quotas on potatoes imported
from Cuba IN December. January
and February In any years unless
the Secretary finds that such i'm
ports are unduly depressing the
potato market for any producing
region I'm the United States"
Under the law. quotas for the en-
try Of potatoes from United States
territories are 70 be established and
all potatoes from United States
territories are to be established and

quotas will be taxed the same as

-
tons and determine allotments 10
each state on the basis Of depart
ment on agriculture statistics.
As I'm the cotton control act, mn
allotment for the nation viii be set
up. and apportioned among the va
rious potato producing states. The
apportionment Of each state viii be
determined on the basis OF the an
nual average acreage or the four
years In which the highest potato
acreage was harvested In such states
In the years l927-34 inclusive multi
piled by the average yield per acre
for the four highest years.
Tandy Opposed Original Bin
Before the bill became law I was
opposed to 1t and voiced my opposi-
ton to its trainers" Tandy said.
But now that we have It, ! think
that we should cooperate with the
department and give IL o. fair trial.
The place where this and all
other control measures break down
Is In the individual allotments 10
growers. and for this reason ! ex-
pressed my opposition. Through our
experience with the cotton program,
we have been able to see some OF
the reasons for the inequalities In In
dividual aIlctments. and 1t Is going
to be up to the potato growers OF
this county to profit from this ex-
perience and make every effort 70
avoid these INEQUALITIES In the po-
tato allotments.'
Ninety-five percent OF the pota-
toes allowed any state win be ap-
pcrtioned upon application 70 farms
on which potatoes were grown dur
ing any one or more years within
the period OF l932-34 inclusive. The
bill provides for exemption Of farms
with average sales OF 800 pounds or
less.

way across Jimmy Elephant with gray.
1t was just then that Clarence's
world began to totter. Miss Burt was
giving spelling words to the seventh
grade The third grades pens were
scratching busily. Then, right in the
middle of a spelling word, Susan put
down the gray crayon, clasped her
red-plaided middle and Squealed three
times. "Oh-Oh-Oh!" before break
ing into frantic tears.
Clarence turned pale. If Jimmy
Elephant had walked right out of the
work book across the new green grass
lust created for him Clarence could
not have been more aghast.
SOMEBODY else had turned pale,
~ too-Miss Burt. The spelling
word died on her lips as she ran
across the room to the screaming
child.
Susan, darling, what's the matter?
Tell me; where does it hurt you?"
She tried to dislodge the rigid little
hands, to quiet her, to hold her COM
fortably. But the child remained a
crouched, disheveled little ball of red
plaid screaming steadily. Clarence,
ashen pale, was frozen to the sides Of
his desk.
Miss Burt Strengthened and tried
desperately to think. Some almost
forgotten phrases from text book
came floating back to her. "A good
teacher" IAN emergency"
Miss Burt was at the closet door
She pulled on her coat, her boots. her
beret. She dressed Susan as best she
could. And as she worked, she spoke
rapidly to the scared little huddle of
youngsters before her.
Ralph, you'll have to keep an eye
on the fire 1t will need coal in half
an hour. Take care of Clarence,
Jane. He's scared half to death. Go
on with your work, the rest OF you.
If I'm not back by 4. go home quietly.
See that the fires banked, Ralph, and
Lucille, lock up carefully. Ill be
back as soon as I can"
X X X X
CHE took a firm grip on the sobbing
~ little bundle in her arms and was
gone. Her last admonition floated
back on a dismal wind. Don't for
get the draft"
Miss Burt started at run down
the uneven road. After half rod
she gave that up. Best not risk q
tumble Susan was crying in way
that twisted her heart. What could
what could be the matter?
The cautious approach Of a car
from behind made her almost drop
her burden in sheer relief. 1t pulled
up slowly on the other side of the
road. The door opened and a long

clutching Susan. 1t might very well
be her last ride-and Susan's. It was
a chance she had to take for both Of
them. Anyway, her grimness had its
desired effect. The young man had
not uttered word. He looked q bit
puzzled and kept his eyes on the road
as they moved slowly along the ruts.
Susan was quieter now, her sobs
slower and deeper. She's getting
weaker" thought Miss Burt and,
Jared into speech by her fear. she
said almost humbly to the young
man:
Couldn't you go little faster?
She's terribly Ill, I'm afraid"
HER companion looked down at the
child's red swollen face
I'm afraid to risk it on these roads.
Maybe it's not so bad as you think.
Could it be-just temper?'
A great contempt for him rose In
Miss Burt's breast and almost choked
her.
Temper! Do you think I'd leave q
schoolhouse full of children and start
walking to town through this"-she
jerked her head toward the slowly
passing landscape for want Of . free
hand-"for case of temper!"
The young man, abashed, had
nothing more to offer. He piloted the
small car in silence into the town and
silently drew up before the doctors
door.
The tall man in gray waited ip the
doctors outer room with his eyes,
fixed on the rather shiny tips of his
shoes. He did not see them, al
though they reflected triangles Of
light back into his tyes. He was lis
tening intently. The sobs. beyond the
frosted glass pane of the doctors
Office door, had stopped.
The door swung open, presently.
Miss Burt, very pale, appeared in the
opening. She was followed by a still
red and swollen, but eminently whole
Susan. moving steadily on her own
stout legs. The young man sprang to
his feet. Two steps brought him
across the room to the pale young
womans side.
Miss Burt drew in her breath In
one long, tremulous gasp. "A pin."
she said, and collapsed quite simply
into the young mans arms.
Back in the shabby little school
room, Clarence, his world rebuilt by
much attention and the orange that
Jane had been saving until recess,
contentedly whiled away the minutes
before 4. blessedly oblivious to the
fact that short miles away Miss
Burt, his rock of security, the pin of
his universe, was weeping quite hap
PLY in the arms of a young man in
gray.
