ed of many who would restrict their
acreage to certainly not more than
that Of last year, and not few who
would probably cut back to the 1894
allotment. He expects, of course, that
there may be some who will plant
everything they can in tobacco this
year.
With no restrictions on the crop,
many growers will probably sign the
soil conservation agreement with the
government, and there is nothing COM
pulsory about that, neither as to the
signing itself nor the compliance after
the signing. But payments will be
made Icy the government only where
an acceptable amount of acreage is re-
tired from tobacco or other money
crops and planted to soil improvement

In the case of tobacco that is expect
ed to be around $40 per acre, which
is considered a right sizeable induce

crop curtailment to the end that good
prices may prevail for weed actually
harvested and sold.
. Forms for signing the soil agree
ments have already been received by
Mr.. Sanders and are available now for

'BEAUTICIANS'
ENDORSE BILL

Representatives of local beauty
operators today made a deter
mined appeal to a House District
Subcommittee for enactment Of
the proposal to regulate them,
while a District medical society
spokesman declared there is no
necessity for the legislation.
Sponsored by Representative
Henry Quinn Cd, Of Pennsyl-
vania, the bill provided princi-
pally that beauty parlors and
operators in them meet certain
sanitary standards and the opera
tors possess certain experience or
have their licenses revoked.
Carey E. Quinn, attorney for the
local organization of hairdressers,
asserted that, although existing
law requires that the health de-
partment make inspections of the
establishments, such inspections
are not regularly made. and, even
if they were, the public would not
be protected from this alone, since
amateurs are allowed to operate.
Work done in beauty parlors, he
pointed out, calls for exact knowl,
edge, experience, and training,
and the operators should be com.
PEELED to meet these requirements.
His views were corroborated by
statements from Miss Lillian
Chopper, Emile Beauvais, and
Julia F. Crandall, local operators.
