This may mean a substantial, but not totally unwelcome cotton surplus, despite anticipated vigor ous government support of export: programs. Cotton men here say that more than 26,000,000 acres have been planted to cotton this year. That is about 2,000,000 acres short of the government’s goal. Nevertheless, cottqn men agree that the 26,000,000 acres should yield 14,000,000 bales, and that if the western cotton belt's dry areas get good rains soon, the crop may pass 15,000,000 bales. Domestic mills, even in a very active year, likely will not need more than 10,000,000 bales, leaving | a surplus of from 4,000,000 to 5,000,- 000 bales to be disposed of by ex port or held in reserve. Sales abroad in the crop year; now coming to an end have been at near record levels. The govern ment will push exports hard in the new crop year to move the anticipated cotton surplus. There is some question how well this effort will succeed. European tex tile mills are in a slump, which dims the prospects for heavy cotton S&16S. That is not all bad, however. The governments goal of 28,000,000 acres seeded to cotton was based in part on the need for building up this country’s reserve stocks. De spite the lower than sought plant ings, this may be accomplished by putting into the stockpile the cot ton left after needs of domestic and foreign consumers have been met. i gates, discussion groups, field stud ies, educational movies, illustrated lectures, planned recreation and H vesper services ' $ IF YOU DON’T READ THETCHRONICLE YOU DON’T GET THE NEWS Wahoo Thursday Night ■ ~ ADMISSION 40c Children under 12 admitted FREE First Show Starts at Dusk—Second Show at 10 P.M. i 8 PHILCO DEEP FREEZE 19511! ii\'uut htl FROM OUR STORE IS TO BE GIVEN AWAY ABSOLUTELY FREE BY DIXIE-HOME SUPER MARKET NOW ON DISPLAY AT THEIR STORE IF YOU ARE NOT THE LUCKY ONE, THERE ARE MANY OTHER SIZES AND STYLES FROM WHICH TO CHOOSE IN OUR STORE.
