Statement Made On
Conservation Rute

A statement issued by the Agricul
tural Adjustment Administration il
regard to the 1910 conservation pay
ment for cotton is made public b,
T. NJ. Patterson, state administrative,
officer of the AAA.
The recently announced reduction
in the conservation payment for cot
ton, from Is to 16 cents per pound
under the 1910 AAA program, wa.
made in accordance with a formuls
outlined in the AAA of 1888. Princi
pal factors which affect the change
in the rate are the increase in the
official normal yield of cotton from
215 10 $50 pounds per acre, and a high.
er estimated participation for 1910 as
compared with the estimated particl
patton at the beginning of the 1885
program.
Patterson quotes the statement is
sued by the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration:
Because of the slightly larger adj
justment required by other crops. the
proportion of the funds available 70.
cotton is 23.5 percent in 1910 as com
pared with 23.9 percent in 1889. This
change in the distribution of funds
in the reduction of the cotton pay
ment from Is cents per pound in
1889 to 1.6 cents in 1910.
This rate is applied to the normal
cotton yield which was estimated at
215 pounds per acre when the 1889
rate was determined, compared with
an estimate of go pounds for 1910.
In each Of the last Two years the
proportion OF the cotton producers
participating in the program has been
larger than estimated at the begin
ming of the year when the rates were
determined. This has resulted In pay
ments to cotton producers larger than
those estimated at the beginning OF
each year. Participation for 1910 is
estimated at 95 percent, which is con-
siderably higher than the estimated
participation on which the 1889 rate
was based.
Both of these changes serve to
increase the number of pounds of
cotton on which 1t is estima ed that
payments will be made, and the low
er the tate per pound is ~nccessarv
to keep Paygaen. within the funds
available for cotton"

FINNS CLAIM TO
 BE STILL GAINING
tContinued from Page D

in Q counter-attack that retook the towns of Aglajaervi and Talvajaervi, there were indications of prepara- ton for new thrusts by the Rus sians, who reportedly ou;numoer the Films 18 to one between Lake La. doga and the Arctic coast,
 One important point at which the Soviet forces seemed to Ia preparing for a new attack was in tho Salla Sector, on the north central front, where the Films said the enemy had been pushed back 53 miles and had lost 5000 dead in 10 days. There were many reports of Russian :ein- forcements in that sector for a re- newal of the drive to cut across the narrow waist" of mid-Finland.
 In the far north, heavy snow was reported in the Petsamo area and Norwegian observers believed that 1t had interrupted Russian pr spar- ations for a new drive southward from Petsamo and Salmijaervl In the narrow Arctic corridor
 Paris and the Scandinavian coun- tries reported, meanwhile, that help was now reaching the Films from the outside. Paris sources said that material aid was arriving in Helsinki, apparently from Britain. France and other countries. A Swedish volunteer corps left for Finland this morning, but It's strength was not disclosed, Previous reports from diplomatic eources in Holland said that the Swedish volunteers were largeiy army forces which had been released from the Swedish military establish ment.
 The war in western Europe con- tinued at the slow pace which seemed almost to Lark e Christmas truce over the weekend German planes flew along the eastern coast of Eng land and were pursued by British fighting craft. There were minor patrol clashes on the Western Front, including one unsuccessful German raid which the French believed was an exhibition staged for Adolf Hit- Ter during the Fuehrer'S Christmas visit to the front.

 Summoned by a triple alarm, half the city's firemen battled for two hours before subduing the flames about midnight, Spray from many hoses froze on streets, forc- ing police to close the area to traf- iic until after dawn. Many firemen were treated for frost-bitten hands and faces.
 Only few smoking uprights of the building, occupied by McIntire- Williamson Company, Inc, and the Peerless Plate Glass Company, re- mained when the fire was controlled. The structure stood near Old Col ony railroad tracks not far from old Harbor Village, federal housing establishment.

placed extensive orders in Iran.
 The small amount which Stalin allows to 90 to Germany depends to a large extent on the canals, which now are freeEag for the winter.
 The Black Sea region with Its rich oil fields thus becomes of high strategic importance. The Allies have long suspected that Russia and Germany, separately or together, have designs on the Balkans and may be forced In desperation to move in that direction.
 The Balkans, however, are show Ing Q stiffening attitude and the Allies are busy trying to whip up Q solid front of resistance among them against any adventure of Hit Ter and Stalin. The unexpected failure of the Red Army to crush Finland quickly Is counted on by the Allies to encourage the Balkans to gang up" if any of them Is attacked.
 Next month members of the Balkan Entente-Rumania, Jugosla- via, Greece and Turkey-will meet In IStanbul. Bulgaria will send an observer. The announced object of the conference Is to strengthen the solidarity and neutrality of the Balkan powers with @ view to re- sisting any foreign penetration.
 The semi-oftieial Paris temps, in discussing the vulnerability Of the oil sources of Southeastern Europe, made 0 remarkable statement last night. The paper ended its analysis with the statement:
 For these reasons, the region of the Black Sea can eventually con- stitute for the Allies strategic objective of capital importance"
 Coupled with the announcement of Allied concentrations of Colonial troops in the Eastern Mediterranean the editorial was regarded in Paris as significant.

 The spokesman said that recen apprehension arising from the i'm pending lack of a trade treaty be, tween the United Staes and Japar will be wiped out' as a result oi the American announcement tha shipping will continue. However he said Japan still held strong hope that aa right relations will be se' cured in a modus vivendi form Il possible" Japan, he said, would like the United states to agree to resu' lar relations for at least one year rather than continue on a day-to. day basis.

New York, Dec. 27-(UP)-The dispute over the proposed sale of Fisk Rubber corporation to United states Rubber company, scheduled for final consideration by the for- mer's shareholders on Friday, was intensified today with both the Fisk management and an opposition stockholders committee claiming successes in their proxy battle.
 While Fisk officials contended yes- terday that they had already re- ceived proxies from more than 50 per cent of the common and pre- ferred stock approving the' sale, Whitfield Reid, chairman of the common stockholders committee, is- sued Q formal statement claiming that he has received new proxies accompanied by letters revoking proxies formerly given to the man. agement.
 Reid declared that, on the basis of letters received by his committee, Fisk shareholders are demanding that U. s. Rubber company boost Its offer for the corporations assets, The original offer called for redemp- ton of preferred stocI at Its call price of $il0 Q share and a price of $675 in cash per common share, plus N share of U. s, Rubber common for each Fisk share.
 U. s. Rubber countered Reid's statement with an announcement this morning to the effect that its original offer was final and that 1t would positively" not be raised.
 The company declared that Its of- fering price for the Iisk common represents ian appreciably higher valuation" than current market quotations and that the stockhold- CTS at Fridays meeting must decide whether they want to accept this offer or turn 1t down"
 No other offer at any other price can be considered at such meeting" the statement concluced.
 Approval of the sale of Fisk assets requires consent of 50 per cent of
