Parity Payments For
1940 Given By AAA
Announcement received from the
Agricultural Adjustment Administration
by the state office of the AAA
and the Kxtehstym Service gives 1.55
cents per pound as the rate of parity
payment for cotton in 1940. The parity
payment for corn will he 6 cents
per bushel; wheat, 10 cents per bushel;
rice 1.7 cents per bushel.
The 1940 Appropriation Act provided
for those parity payments to be
made on the live basic corps in 1940
if the 1939 average farm prices were
less than 75 per cent of parity. Since
the estimated J939 season average
price for each kind of tobaeoo was
above 75 por ctyit of parity, no price
adjustment payments will be made on
that crop in 1940.
Officials Indicated that estimated
increases in participation in 1940 compared
with 1939 estimates are responsible
for the somewhat lower rates of
the parity payments for 1940.
Resides the parity payments, farmers
who cooperate in the 1940 AAA
Farm Program, and plant within their
acreage allotments, will receive agricultural
conservation payments, at
rates previously announced.
Due to changes In the acreage allotments
and normal yields, the 1940
rates will be applied to an approximately
12 per cent larger wheat production,
3 per cent larger cotton production,
3 per cent smaller corn production,
and slightly larger rice production
than were the 1939 rates.
Can Make Woodland
Crow Real Money
Clemson. Feb 17.? -Al) over South
Curolina are hundred a of thousands
of acres of crowded young pine timber
that needs attention while it Is
growing If the owners are to receive
satisfactory income from their woodland,
says C. It Itoss, assistant forester
of the Clemson extension service
Fortunately, lie adds, farmers are
showing increasing interest in the money-making
possibilities of tree crops.
"One form of attention to forest
funning which experience shpws to be
portltablo is thinning the stand of
trees," Mr. ltoss states, citing the expevienco
of one farmer in tho middle
Piedmont.
"This farmer has 60 acres of woods,
| mostly pine, with low-grade oaks scattered
throughout. The county agent
und the extension forester examined
this tract last year and found tho
young pines so thick that there were
over 900 per acre in some places,
those dense young stands were badly
in need of thinning, for these reasons:
Many of the young pines were
ltmby, rough, crooked, or defective
and would never make good saw-timber.
Many of the most valuable trees,
those that were straightest and
smoothest, wore being crowded out by
the low-value trees.
Very slow growth was being made
by the stand because the trees wese
! too thick, and some were dying because
of the crowding.
"The owner proceeded to thin out
some of the low-grade pines and oaks.
He cut 55 cords of firewood, selling 30
cords at 14 .00 each, and using the
other 25 cords on his farm. The total
value of tho 55 oords can be figured
at $225, which gave him a handy profit
above the cost of tht? work.
"But the immediate profit is hardly
the most important thing," Mr. It ss
concludes. "By making that thinning
he put his timber stand in shape to
grow more timber of higher qualify,
because the promising, straigh:,
smooth pines were given the room
they needed to make better growth.
Tho tall, smooth trees are the ones
that grow into real money.
French war planes sent to the aid
of Finland have already scored a
number of victories against Russia,
French news sources report, French
artillery also is said to be helping tho
Finns.

well and J M Million of Monitor do1
well to remind the senate that the appropriation
bill must not exceed expected
revenue. Wo need a voice of
authoritv, speaking the deep eonvlotion
of the taxpayers, that e\ery Item
in the appropriation hill could lie reduced
twenty-five per cent without
impairment of any essential obltgatlou
of tlte state. We are trifling with
the taxpayers for the sake of loyalties
which should not control us in
dealing with the people as a whole.
George Washington and Abraham
Lincoln faced great issues. All of us
revere the memory of Washington-?
many of us recall the generous humanity
of Lincoln and tils readiness
to welcome the south back into the
union. In comparison with the eleven
years of reconstruction Lincoln's Idea
would have been like an Apostolic
benediction.
What I'm thinking of at the moment
is this: Those men didn't play
with and trifle with the presidency.
Neither tried to outsmart others; the
presidency loses la dignity as it becomes
a i>olltlcal springboard. Would
not it be refreshing to hear something
like this: "I respect the traditions
of our nation and shall gladly lay
down this office, knowing that the
processes of popular choice will bring
to the office a man dedicated to the
preservation of our liberties."
Regardless of what anybody says or
does, let's see to it that Demoncracy
doesn't plunge us Into voluntary bankruptcy
by acknowledging thai only
one man is capable of guiding the nation
which produced Washington, Jefferson.
Jackson, Cleveland and Wlb
son.
Senator Smith is quoted as expressing
himself against a third term for
Mr. Roosevelt. The News and Courier
makes much of the senator's remark
and recalls the outspoken opposition
of Colonel Wyndham Manning
to a third term, for the president.
Here and there people?politicians
principally ? are gravely pondering
the attitude of Mr. Roosevelt. Not
being a politician I haven't much patience
with all this fence-straddling.
We have great traditions worthy of
respect and .we should quietly assume
that Mr. Roosevelt will lay down the
duties of the presidency at the end of
this term. Furthermore, the Democracy
should bring out a man for the
presidency who will be a Democrat.
It is desirable that Democracy be
defined and that Democracy stand or
'fall as Democracy. Just to win a race
is nothing to be proud of If principles
have been sacrificed for victory. The
Democratic party should not he sold
to any man or group, and It should
win or lose on a platform of revitalized
principles, soundly conceived and
firmly adhered to.
Surely there Is something worth
more than winning an office. If victory
alone is what counts then let us
throw scruples and principles to the
(Winds and mak^, victory our god; but
if principle be'Our guide then let's
recognize that there is such a thing
u.s righteousness in political affairs
and be guided by it.
I would rather see our Democratic
party right. In a hopeless minority,
with a dozen senators and fifty representatives,
than to be, as today, allied
to numerous elements which contributed
votes and money and are subverting
the state itself.
Senator Henry Sims challenges the
general assembly to face the social security
matter squarely; and he announces
his purpose to propose an addition
of nine hundred and fifty-one
thousand dollars to the bill of two
millions, now pending. I wish the
senator would propose five million or
ten million so as to let our people see
the enormity of this extravagance.
Once aroused the people might throw
this whole thing overboard?"A consummation
devoutly to be wished."
Senator Ward says that the senate
brought out a bill quickly so as to recommend
a sum less than the house
total, although the whole proceeding
was a camouflage, according to the
senator. I knew, of course, that there
was somebody hiding In the woodpile,
but I couldn't see him. Even so, It
is better for the citizens to- see who
It is that proposes the Increases. I
have a suspicion that the bill In the
senate will make good campaign material
against those senators who vote
for It.
More than two hundred business
men came to Columbia recently to attend
a joint hearing on two bills?the
first, to repeal the special tax on intangibles
and tho second to control
the punitive damage practice by
which a man suffering damages of
ten'dollars will sue for ten thousand
If the defendant happens to be big and
wealthy. It Is clear that If we are to
have Justice It mnst he tho same for
rich and poor.
Spectator agrees that our tax on Intangibles
Is the best of all the etates,
but It seems to stand In the way of
larger revenue. in other words, if by
repealing the tax we can hope for
mora revenue, than let us repeal it
