10 Per Cent Hike
Dark Tobacco
Acreage Asked
Abbitt Leads
Group Seeking
1861 Increase

A Virginia delegation. led by
Fourth D i t r Congressman
Watkins M. Abbitt, made a
strong plea for a 10 per cent in
crease in dark tobacco acreage
for 1861 at U. S. Department
OF Agriculture hearing Tuesday in
Washington.
Congressman Abbitt placed the
request during the hearing be-
fore the USDA's Tobacco Section.
His plea. however, was offset by
the request of Kentucky-T ennes-
see interests that the 1861 allot-
mentS remain at the same level
as in 1850.
Virginia's strong support of
more acreage was based in part
on the low percentage of the 1860
crop going into the government
pool. After five weeks of auc-
tons. the government has taken
less than four per cent of the
1860 crop.
Disappearance
The appeal also emphasized
that the annual disappearance of
tobacco on hand has been exceed
ing annual production for at least
three years. The delegation also
showed that during 1860 there
were LOO allotted acres on
which no tobacco was planted be-
cause of such programs as the
conservation reserve of the fed
eral Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation program.
1t was also shown that the to-
bacco industry this year will be
able to fill only three fourths of
its export orders with the amount
Of current crop tobacco avail
able. ss
The Kentucky-Te Tennessee dele
cation from the western dark to-
bacco producing area said that
the dark tobacco situation has
improved substantially. Spokes-
men said. however. they feel
farmers should wait another year
to see whether an increase in
acreage would be justified.
