I was very anxious when 1 first came to Congress to be assigned to the Agriculture com mlttoe of the House. I believed that there, 1 would be In a strategic position to really do something for our farmers, particularly the cotton farmer. I found, to my regret, that It was impossible to secure assignment to this committee under the rules of the House, due to the fact that South Carolina alreudy had a member of the committee, Hon. H. P. Fulmer vice committee chairman. From the standpoint of agriculture. South Carolina occupies two Important and strategic posts here. Senator Smith Is chairman of the Senate committee and, as stated, Congressman Fulmer Is vice chairman In the House. The Agriculture committee of the House and Senate are both holding hearings ou proposed new remedies to relieve tho distressing plight of our farmers. There Is little chance however, at this late dt^te, to secure basic changes that can bo put into effect for the year 1939. Chairman Jones, Texas, of the Agriculture committee has stated that there does not appear to bee any plan offered so far which has good grounds of superceding the Farm Control act now in operation. Mr. Jones seems definitely committed to tho present Crop Control act. Senator Smith's plan proposes that a certain amount of loan cotton be given to cotton farmers in return for an agreement on their part to further restrict production. His bill further provides that 1.600,000 bales of 1934 iuan coiiun ho CVCI* t? ?bo eral Surplus Commodities corporation -to be used to relieve distress in this country, and that 1,500,000 bales of the 12.000,000 bales total surplus be put In tho channels of trade each year. Congressman Fulmer contends that the Smith plan does not provide a remedy. He says that we must find new uses for American cotton, increase home consumption of the product, and that our main problem Is not the foreign cotton market situation, but the domestic market situation. He asserts that our main fight is to keep from losing our home markets and not one to secure foreign markets which are hopelessly lost. He further proposes that the government impound and pay for the entire surplus of 12,000,000 bales now on hand. Seuator Bankhead, of Alabama, a ranking member of the Senate committee on agriculture, lias Introduced a bill to permit cotton farmers to redeem some of their cotton pledged for loans, by holding additional land out of production. The plan would authorize additional compensation for farmers if they stayed within the cotton acreage allotment under the Farm act. and if they diverted 20 per cent to 75 per cent of the allotment to soil building or Soil Conservation. In retuiu the farmer would be paid in warehouse receipts for cotton he pievious}y had pledged for loans under the Commodity Credit Corporation art. There has been much argument ad\an<ed in favor of the Hone -tic Allotment plan That we c.?.. drive foreigners out of the cotton market and cut foreign cotton acreage with big crops anil low prices as > laimed by proponents of the so-called Domestic Allotment plan. is a debatable i|Uest inn There is no doubt that out Republican party sponsored tariff polir\ contributed to the world-wide movement toward nationalism and also to the fact that we have lost a large part of our foreign markets. Now other nations have retaliated with similar tariffs and we can't stop what was started by the Republicans unless foreign nations do tho same thing. Authorities state that unlimited production would not recapture the world market by cutting foreign production and that It is not supported by experience of economic Justification. Since 1870 there has been nineteen record crops In the United States and In alt except four of these Instances foreign cotton acreage has actually increased The odds, therefore, are nearly four to one that a big volume of American cotton Is not certain Insurance against an Increase In foreign cotton acres. Recently Secretary Wallace stated, "Supposing that under such a plan exports for a year or two could be Increased from 6,000,000 bales to 9,* 000,000 balea, what assurance do you have that the Increase exports would actually bring Increased foreign con Tryon Horse Show Set For April 12 The in oat Important event on the aporta calendar In Tryon. N. 0., 1? the 'a i you horae ahow and hound show, which la scheduled tor April 12, at Harmon Field, under the auspices of the Tryon riding and hunt club. This ahow, which, at lta Inception, waa confined to only a few classes, has grown steadily In Importance until today It la one of the outstanding events In the south. Last year witnessed the largest attendance In Its history, with more than 4,000 spectators filling every available Inch of apace in the boxes, grandstands and parking spaces. The classes Include saddle horses, hunters and Jumpers and hunt teams. These have been augmented recently by a class In children's horsemanship for children under 12 yeara of age. The show ring, set In the pinewooded foothills of the Blue llldge Is unusually picturesque and additional color la lent by the entrance of the tally-ho, followed by a pack of Tyron hounds. Box lunches are provided for the spectators and one section of the grounds has been diverted for the use of the farmers over whoso grounds the club members have hunted. Here a barbocuo Is served free. The hound show which lasts from 9 o'clock until mid-day, Is becoming Increasingly Important to sport lovers and last year there were entries from the tlnest packs In Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, Kentucky and Tennessee. The winners In this show are paraded in the ring during the Intermission and are followed by an old-fashioned horn blowing contest. Socially, the seuson reaches its peak. Luncheons and dinners for the Judges and exhibitors crowd the calendar. The horse show dance, given at Oak Hall Hotel the evening preceding the show, Is an annual feature and the festivities end with the hunt breakfast, given the morning after the show, at the Pine CresJ. Inn. In addition, there are numerous private parties for the out-of-town guests, given by the winter residents whose homes are in the hunting section.

What, if the low price at which we offered our cotton merely gave foreigners a chance to stock up, at a bargain, aB they did in depression years? Then there la another question. If the price of your export cotton was very low would It be worthwhile to sacrifice your soli fertility for the sake of maintaining a big volume of exports?

House Kills Important Bill Columbia, Mar. 2.?The house of representatives of South Carolina killed a bill to require detail safety inspection for automobiles yesterday while the senate launched what promised to be a lengthy debate on a nrpponl to change the basis for distributing the counties' share of the state gasoline tax. Representatives voted, 6y to 49, to kill the bill which would have brought Automobiles and trailers under the provisions of the 1938 act requiring safety inspection for trucks. Opponents argued it would prevent many poor motorists from using their old vehicles. 4 CITATION The State of South Carolina County of Kershaw (By N. C.
