COTTON SURPLUS FEARED

The cotton-growers of the nation are
asked to make twenty per cent cutback
in cotton production this year to avoid
SURPRISES. but officials of the Depart
ment of Agriculture admit privately that
the request will not be needed because of
the Governments price supports on the
1949 crop.
Last years crop of 100000 bales is
100000 bales above the crop ample to
meet all needs" This is due to the fact
that stocks left over from the 194S crop
are expected to equal one-third of last
years production when the new crop
rolls into the markets next fall.
We have consistently supported the
Governments program of price supports
for farm prices but, in our view, this
should be supplemented by adequate
crop control devices. 1t is obviously inn
possible to expect reduction of acreage
as long as the Government guarantees
unlimited production. Even if most of the
cotton growers were willing to cooperate,
there would be minority, ready and
anxious to increase acreage in order to get
large cotton income.
Farmers who favor continued govern
mental support for agricultural prices
should realize that this program will
break down unless it is accompanied by
some means to prevent the accumulation
of surpluses. Obviously, if cotton grow
ers produce 3.0O0,0 900 bales of cotton each
year above requirements. it will not be
long before the finances of the Govern
ment will be insufficient to guarantee the
price of the staple.

is EDUCATION cENsoREDp

More than 1000 educators from many
partg of the United States recently met
un1pr the auspices of the National Edu-
eaupnal Association and tackled the SUBJ
ject: Are the Schools Free?"
One speaker, DIR. William II. Burton,
Of Harvard University, cited fifty major
national organizations (which could be a
thfeat" to schools because of pressure tao
tics- He did not name the groups but de-
clared that some of them badly inter-
fere with ACADEMIC freedom
Another speaker, Or. Roma Cans, of
Columbia University, pointed out that
1T is not always the Chamber of Com
merce or the National Association of
Manufacturers that interfere with free
dom Of the Schools" He admitted that
1T may be one Of the churches or small
town business group"
- DIR. Cans stated that there is tend
ency to cireumscribe and control educa-
tiail.z "A program that will develop, sensi-
tNf--active, thinking children" he assert

ID is net TO be expected that every
american will approve all of the sub
jerts-iiscussed in public schools or the
HEsnrer and methods by which every
teacher presents these topics to students.
