Feed Markets
Are Uneven

Raleigh, Sept. 22.-Feed markets
remained unsettled during the past

ments were made which brought
prices more in line with available
supplies and current market inquiry,
according to the U. S. and North
Carolina departments of agriculture

cline as production increased sharp
ly following recent sales of flour.
High protein concentrates averaged
about unchanged with offerings re-
latively light. The index number Of

in mill feed prices. A year ago the

if it is justified by the land, labor

for tobacco after considering other
cash crops on the farm. For farms on
which tobacco was grown in 1899
without an acreage allotment, the al
lotment will be based on l-5 Of the
1899 harvested acreage adjusted up
or down by local and county COM
mittees on the basis of crop rotation
practices and the land, labor and
equipment available for tobacco as
compared with other farms similarly
situated in the community

Larger supplies of poultry and

Bailey Asks President S
Help In Tobacco Crisis
Would Have Government Seek Return OF Brit
ish Buyers, and if That Fails, Would Extend
Credit to Growers.

Senator j. w. Bailey has written
President Roosevelt urging him to
use his influence with the British
government to have the Imperial To-
bacco Company return its buyers to
flue-c cured tobacco markets when
they reopen next month. If that can
not be done, recourse to federal loans
to growers was urged by the sena-
tor He also wrote Jesse Jones, fed
eral loan commissioner, calling his
attention to the situation and solicit
ing his aid in behalf of the farmers.
Senator Bailey's letter to Presi-
dent Roosevelt follows:
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-09-22

In the course of a statement tC
flue-cured tobacco growers on pro-
posals for meeting the present crisis
in tobacco, Secretary Wallace has
outlined the plan that will be fol-
lowed in handling the situation if the
growers approve 1910 crop control IN
the referendum early in October. The
procedure is set forth as follows:
"Under the amendments each farm
will have an acreage allotment and
if the acreage harvested does not ex-
ceed this allotment. the entire pro-
duction. no matter how high the yield
per acre. can be marketed without
penalty. Since any cooperating far
mer can sell the entire production
in his acreage allotment, there will
be no transfer Of quotas from one
farm to another.
"Allotments for small farms will
first be calculated SO as to be COM
parable With allOtments for larger
farms and then they will be increas-
ed by 20 percent but not above the
acreage which. with a normal yield,
would produce 5000 pounds of to-
bacco. For example, if the allotment
computed for farm for 1910 is two
acres and the normal yield is 1000
pounds (l000 pounds per acre) then
the allotment will be increased to "a
acres On the other hand, if the al
lOtment is 3 acres and the normal
yield 5000 pounds $1,000 pounds per
acre., then the allotment will be in
creased to only 80 acres rather than
by 20 percent The increase of al
lOtmentS for small farms is limited
strictly to farms not operated, con-
trolled or directed by d person who
also operates. controls, or directs an
other farm on which tobacco was
produced
"The last amendment of interest
to farmers provides flat penalty
of 10 cents per pound on all sales of
tobacco in excess of the actual pro-
duction on the acreage allotment for
the farm
I'm connection with allotments, the
following facts may be helpful. I'm
der the regulations which have been
prescribed it is extremely unlikely |
that the 1910 acreage allotment for |
any regular or old tobacco farm will i
be reduced more than 20 percent, or
is, below the 1899 allotment of |
acres to plant" unless an error is |
found in the figures used in calculat- |
ing the 1889 acreage allotment Any
farm on which the harvested acreage |
in 1889 was materially larger than
the 1889 allotment can not count up
on receiving an increased allotment |
in 1910 by reason of having planted |
the larger acreage, but may receive
some increase in the 1889 allotment |

Right of Drivers
And Walkers Told
In 18 \. C.. Cities

Declaring that six of every ten
persons killed in traffic accidents
are pedestrians, w. c. Gates, local
manager of the Carolina Motor
club, announced today that 18
Carolina cities have been enrolled
in a movement designed to lower
the death-rate by educating both
walkers and drivers as to their re-
spective rights and obligations.
''In view Of the fact that pedes-
trian accidents account for some IS
per cent of all traffic deaths, 1t is
clear that the first point of attack
on the accident record should be
directed toward the pedestrian
problem, Mr.. Gates said. Toward
this end, the Carolina Motor club
and the American Automobile AS
'ociation are sponsoring national
pedestrian protection contest, Of
ficially approved by the governors
If North and South Carolina.
''Cities enrolled in the contest
thus far include Asheville, Char
lotte, Concord, Durham, Fayette-
vile, Goldsporo, Greensboro, Ra-
leigh, Rocky Mount, Salisbury,
StateSville, Wilmington and Will
ION in North Carolina: Anderson,
Charleston, Columbia, Florence and
Sumter in South Carolina.'
