Cotton -
Plant or release your cot
ton acres. 1t is very import
ant that the farmers of Hol-
mes County either plant all
of their cotton allotment or
release your acreage that you
are not going to plant.
In 1861 the farmers of Hol-
mes County failed to plant $50
or 1900 acres of their cotton
allotment that could have been
planted. Taking the average
for the county, if this 1900
acres hDd been planted it
would have meant $685. 900
more to the farmers of Hol-
mes County.
In addition to losing the
income from our cotton not
planted We also lost acres
from our cotton history, which
means that these acres will
be diverted to some other
cotton planted area if not
planted.
In order to keep your cotton
allotment on the farm it is
necessary that you plant at
least L of an acre of your al
lotment every third year. So
if you have not planted cotton
In the last two years it is
necessary that you plant at
least i acre in 1862 in order
that you will have a cotton
allotment in 1868.
Any portion of your cotton
allotment that you do not in
tend to plant be sure and re-
lease it to the ASC Office be-
tore March 31st. Let me urge
again that you either plant
or release your cotton acreage
this year.

Pasture Spraying -

1t you have dock and thistle
IN your pasture it should be
sprayed Immediately before
the seed heads start up. Make
sure the temperature is 60
degrees or above before spray
ing. Do not spray areas where
you have vetch, wild winter
peas, crimson and red clovers
as 2,4-D will kill these plants.
Use l pound of 2,4-D, which is
l quart, in enough water to
cover 1 acre, usually 20 Is
gallons of water per acre.

Parking Agency to Ask
DeIoyon C.Fund Use

The Motor Vehicle Parking
Agency wants the District
Commissioners to look at its
recommendation for parking
sites before they consider
spending the agency's So mil
lion reserve on something else.
Agency members in a regular
yesterday said they
hope the reserve can buy sites
for 100000 in parking projects
they recommended to the Com
missioners last month in the
$4,000 parking study.
Last March the SO million
collected by the agency from
parking meters and lot leases,
was transferred by Congress to
a special account within the
fund called the park
ing account.
However. its use is still un-
decided. The money can be
spent on parking by the specific
authorization of Congress, Will
liam D. Heath, agency executive
director, said yesterday.
He told the agency of re-
ports that Commissioner To-
briner is considering a proposal
to spend the So million for
highway maintenance and re-
pair. The proposal has not
been officially announced, he
said.
1.-THE SO million is of vital
necessity to start acquisition of
parking Sites" Mr.. Heath told
the group.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-11-20

A new member of the agency,
Douglas r. Smith, asked Mr..
Heath, would this (CommiS-
sioner Tobriner's PROPOSAL in
effect wipe out the. reserve we
have?"
yes" Mr.. Heath said.
The group agreed to send the
Commissioners a letter asking
them to. hold any other plans
for the reserve in allegiance
until they decide on the merits
of the parking study.
Mr.. Heath said the agency
has an annual income of about
81 million, made up of $3.50, 900
from parking meters, 100000
from Government bonds and
100000 from lot leases.
The agency's parking recon-
mendation probably will come
up before the Commissioners
sometime in December. he said.

BuIoeuer Barred
From Dominican
Presidential Race

SANTO DOMINGO, Domin-
lean Republic, Nov. 20 (AP) -
The National Electoral Council
yesterday rejected ex-President
Joaquin Balaguer's registra-
ton as a candidate in next
months presidential election.
The council said there were
irregularities in the nomina-
ton by factions backing him.
There are seven other candi-
dates. Mr.. Balaguer had been
President during the Trujillo
regime and reports that he was
coming back to this island from
exile brought troops and heavily
armed police to all airports to
block him.
Mr.. Balaguer, SIS. who took
refuge in the United States last
January, was nominated for
presidency in the December 20
elections by the newly formed
Authentic Dominican Revolu-
tionary Party (PRDAO.
Mr.. Balaguer accepted the
nomination even though i'm
migration officials declared he
would not be allowed to cam
paign in this country.
Gen. Belisario Pegueros, ma
tional chief of police, was in
charge of units posted at all
civilian and military airports.
He told a reporter tanks were
on the alert off runways and
the nearby San Ysidro Air
base.
Mr.. Balaguer still holds the
support of pro-T1ujillo ele-
ments and the government ap-
peared to be taking no chances
that his appearance mis- h t
spark an attempted coup.

Transit. Plan Raped
On Auto roveI Figures

I haven't computed it," Mr..
Keith replied.
With only a 3 per cent reduce
ton in regional trips by auto,
where are you putting the ex-
ira cars?" Gen. Clarke asked.
The 1862 proposal for a 1898
million system also recommend
ed a $3.50 million cutback in
highway construction.
viii Cut Commuter Loads
The reduction in car use
because of rapid transit is sell
lective and will be significant
in key construction areas near
downtown for peak hour COM
muting needs, Mr.. Keith said.
Herbert w. Wells, a member
of the joint steering committee
for the 1859 study, commented:
I'm older than you, and I
remember when the Baltimore
g. Ohio Railroad had 48 trains
a day serving passengers along
the line you propose for rapid
transit" Mr.. Wells said.
People stopped riding these
trains. and switched to auto
mobiles.
Nov people in the counties
have even higher incomes, and
you people will tell commuters
they have to ride rapid transit. "
Mr.. Quenstedt said: 1--WE
think traffic will be so con-
gested that people will ride
rapid transit. Besides. our sys-
tenn will be vastly improved
compared to the older system. +"

Mr., Evans unlocked one

The $793 million rapid tran
sit system proposed this month
cuts the estimated number of
regional trips by automobile
only around 8 per cent COM
pared to traffic forecasts in
1859, officials said yesterday.
And the 8 per cent difference
could be counterbalanced by
the margin Of error, Engineer
Commissioner Frederick j.
Clarke said.
The question of the differ
ences between the 1859 and the
1862 transit systems came up
at the monthly meeting of the
National Capital Regional
Planning Council, when the
National Capital Transporta-
ton Agency gave a briefing on
its financial and organizational
recommendations to President
Kennedy.
Cautious on Apartments
The council, in other buSi-
ness, declined to take an i'm
mediate stand on a resolution
calling for an end to Merry
wood-type apartment develop
ments on either side of the
Potomac River.
The resolution, prepared by
staff planners following the
controversy over the planned
History Merrywood develop
ment in Fairfax County, urges
that land on both sides Of the
river be limited to low-denSity
residential uses or to recrea-
tional, open-Space use.
In the transit discussion,
Warren D. Quenstedt, deputy
administrator. and Robert A.
Keith, chief transportation
planner for the Transportation
Agency! faced a battery of Of
ficials who participated in the
1859 Mass Transportation
Study. The study recommended
Ia $476 million, 32-mile raj
rapid transit system, compared
to the $793 million, 83-mile
system recommended this
month.
Assuming the total trips, the
difference between the Q959)
MTS and your plan is only
about 3 per cent, isn't it?"
Gen. Clarke said.

followed that.
