.,.the hit.s for Goldville.

Washington, April 20,—If congress
enactf a new cotton production cqrttrol
1 laWj'Bei^a^r Bankhead, of A^^diama,
I said today, Pre.sident Roosevelt .“un-
fdoubtedly will- authorize a, 12-cent
loan on this year’s crop.^’ . »
I “^Without such a production control
I law,” he added, “the government will
not make loans oh this year’s crop.”
Bankhead called the attention of
“cotton farmers and their friends in
the cotton belt” to the fact the com-
pul^ry Control act of which he was
the author expires irith the 1935 crop,
and that Mr. Roose^^elt had request^
the legislation be continued to afford
protection to next year’s loans “on
millions of bales of this year’s crop.”
The senate farm leader said:
“In view of the president’s view
that production control is necessary
to protect the government’s interest
in loans on cotton and also to protect
the price ol^ cotton, it is clearly incum
bent upoh all who are interested in
the announcement of a 12.=acent loan
plan and in maintaining the price of
cotton at least that high, to get’ to-
geth^r and make a edneih

“Those who want large quantities
of cotton to handle, regardless of the
price, have been exceedingly busy'for
many months in an“ organized effort
to de.stroy and to bring into disrepute
[the administration’-s, cotton plans
I which have brought untold benefits to
i the cotton farmers ?yid the people
generally in the cotton belt.
“It is high time for the cotton farm
ers, the business people of the cotton
states and all of us who represent the
people of the cotton belt to concen
trate our attention and our activitieis
upon our most important business
problem.”
Bankhead said the new bill impos
