Wheat Quotas
Are Suspended

Secretary Of Agriculture Wickard
has suspended AAA marketing quot
as on wheat in a move he said was
designed to insure adequate war
time supplies of the cereal for hu-
man food and livestock feed.
The order affected quotas imposed
on the 1912 crops and those estab-
lished for the 1943 crop.
Under marketing quotas, farmers
were free to sell, use or feed only
that wheat grown on their AAA
planting allotments. Wheat from
1912 crop sold, used or fed from
excess acreages was subject to a
penalty tax of 54 cents bushel.
The penalty would have been around
so cents on the 1943 crop.
Wickard also made change in
the 1913 farm program to allow
farmers to increase their paintings
of wheat without being penalized
under the benefit payment and crop
loans program.
Under this change, farmers who
plant at least 80 per cent OF their
AAA goals for so-called war crops
such as soybeans, fax, dry beans
and peas, potatoe, and grain sor-
grums-may overplant their 1943
wheat allotments and still be ELI
gible for benefit payments and wheat
loans.

from alcohol. II the Baruch Com
mittee was right in prescribing a
quilting through program with oil
as the piece de resistance, let's stick
to that.
BUT, the American people have
q right to know which process holds
the most possibilities for early and
continued production. They don't
particularly care whether they ride
on tires made from oil or tires made
from alcohol, weeds, dandelion or
mushrooms. What they want is tires
made from something.
They are. therefore, looking to
Congress to sift out all that Is ir-
relevant and controversial and get
right down to hard, ineontrovertible
facts. II, in the process. some Official
heads must be sacrificed, let's sacri-
fee them. This problem Is too inn
