Farm Bureau
BacksSoiIB Bank,
Flexible Props

CHICAGO, Dec. is R.-The
American Farm Bureau FEEDER
alton Is on record In favor Of
flexible Government price sup
ports and q proposal for q soil
bank.
The soil bank won approval
without opposition at the groups
final session of It's annual con-
vention yesterday. But Southern
cotton growers raised a cry
against the approval of flexible
price supports.
The cotton growers sought yes
terday to get delegates 10 the
federation's 37th annual meet
ing to back rigid 90 per cent Of
parity supports.
H. L. Wingate, president 81 the
Georgia Farm Bureau. led the
tight against flexible supports.
He said he was backed by dele
gates from South Carolina, North
Carolina, Arkansas. Oklahoma,
Tennessee. Kentucky, Texas and
Florida.
The Southern bloc tried four
times to get delegates to exempt
cotton from their recommended
ton for flexible supports. The
bloc also represented growers Of
peanuts and tobacco.
Under the present flexible sys-
tenn, MIR. Wingate said, price sup
ports on cotton may drop to IS
per cent Of parity next year.
This. he said. would force farm
ers to sell below actual costs.
Parity is a standard for meas
uring farm prices declared by
law to be fair to farmers in rela-
ton to the prices they pay
The soil bank recommendation
Is designed to cut present sur /.
pluses and avert future SURPRISES
by converting o percentage Of
cropland to grasses and legumes.

ing. delegates reelected Charles
B. Shuman Of Sullivan. H.,

the dominant view that State
and local governments cannot
make an effective contribution
toward economic sterilization.
MIR. Maxwell recommended
that part of the State and local
revenues In abundant years
should be "salted away" for use
in lean years. He also said
States and cities could help sta
bilize the economy by holding
back on capital improvements In
prosperity and launching them
In recession.
Lauds Policy Of 1920s
In discussing inheritance and
gift taxation, Mr.. Shaw advo-
Gated o return to the poliSy Of
the l920s. under which the Fed
eral Government allowed a credit
Of 80 per cent on such taxes
levied on the State leVet.
Senator Douglas inquired II 1t
would not be advisable to use the
same device to induce the States
to put more emphasis on income
taxes, by having the Federal
Government collect all income
tax and pro-rate part Of it back
to the States.
The Senator explained. how
ever, he was not advocating this
step. but merely suggesting 1t
for study.
The subcommittee will bring
the hearings to q close this after
noon with another discussion on
State and local taxes.
