CUHTON. X & IZ-Cint Aidyaoce . On Cbtton Urged Smith and Bankhead Lead Cam paign To Secura Early Docia- ion Frdm Ck>Tidminhnt.i Washington, Aug. 12. Agitation for an early announcement On the gov- emment’a jetton loan poHcy waa re newed todhy on the agriculture de partment’s forecast of a 1936 crop of U,798,0(^ bales. . ' Two Southern semitors, Smith of South Carolina, and J^khead of Ala bama, again recommended' to Presi dent Roosevelt continuance ,of loans of at least twelve cents a pound. Bankhead called personally at the Whte House, while Smith conferred with the executive over the'telephoi|^. Meanwhile, a Southern textile rOp- airect, emergency, education, work and j resentisUve in the capiUl, former Gov- rural rehabilitation relief and children emor 0. Max Gardner, of North Caro- under sixteen years of age.. He 8aid!lii»» reiterated the industry as d^r- tbe cases represented approximately; ou^ of and anxious for an immediate 264,340 individuals. ^ Employable 'persons between the ages of sixteen anfd sixty-five number ed 105,719, or ah increase of 20,019 over the July 1 total, Fulp explained. He added there were 3,400 cases, representng' families and individuals, unemployed in textile communities in Andersop, Laurens, Union,' ’Spartan burg, Cherokee, York and Chester counties. “If no funds are available to us in August other than the original $500,- — 000, we will be able to grant an aV- f erage of only $6.55 a month to relief clients. In June we gave an average of $7.90. In addition, we are giving surplus commodities from our ware houses and vegetables from bur» gar dens,” the administratpr ppjnted out. Fulp’s statement said the ratio of jannounc^mbot. Asserting the parity price of cotton was now sixteen cents a pound, Gard ner said manufacturers recognized ^hat a loan vajue of less than twelve cents a pound would be unfair to growers. .i J Announcement of the loan, he added, will not only assure the farmer a rea sonable minimum price for his crop, but also will restore co'nfidenoe in the market and stimulate the flow of trade; j * ' ^ The crop forecast nearly 1,300,000 bales in excess of cotton allotments of 10,600,000 bales from 1935, brought opposing reaction from 45mith and Bankhead, chief cotton spokesmen in the senate. Bankhead expressed the opinion the figure was too high, while Smith said persons on relief to he state’s popula- ^ was-“not surprised.^’ idn August 1 was 15.2. Crop of 759,000 Bales Is Forecast For S. C. A South Carolina cotton, crop of 759,000 (500-pound gross weight) bales is forecast by the crop reportng board from conditions of August 1, and an indicated area for harvest of 1,394,000 acres. The final outturn, however, will depend largely upon weather conditions during the remain der of the season. The condition is- re ported at 76 per cent of normal as compared to a condition of 67 per cent for August 1, 1934 and a ten-year average (1924-1933) of 65 per cent. The estimated produefton of 769,000 bales compares with 681,000 for 1934 and a ten-year average of 845,000 bale.s. The indicated yield is 260 pounds of lint per acre which compares with 260 pounds harvested in 1934 and a ten- year average (1924-1933) ef 211 pounds per acre. This yield of 260 pounds of lint per acre is the second highest yield for South Carolina since 1920, being exceeded only in 1931 by a yield of 273 pounds lint per acre. The crop got off to a better than average start and from all indications seems to be from a’ week to ten days ahead of the average. Weevil damage was about average but weather conditions during the next ^thirty days wil^ determine the final weevil damage'for the crop. Say— __ “I SAW IT IN THE CHRONICLE” Thank Yon!
