^ The approximately 1,004,000 two-
year contracts, signed in the early
part of 1934, which have been made
effective for 1935, provide for a re
duction of 25 per cent, from the base
acreage as compared with a reduction
of about 40 per cent which was ac
complished in 1934. One—year con
tracts for 1935 will also be offered

years 1928-1932 with a maximum
rental of $18 per acre. 'Parity pay
ments will he made at the rate of
not less than 1 1-4 cents per pound |
on the farm allotment.
As a matter of greater convenience |
to producers in making their farm
plans, individuals will be allowed to I
reduce acreage as much as 30 per
cent, from the base and will be allow-1
ed benefit payments on reductions of]
this amount. With average yields j
and average abandonment a total!
crop of about 12 million bales is ex-|
pected in 1935 as compared with the
November 1 estimate of the 19341
crop of 9,637,000 bales.
Commenting on the 1935 cotton 1
production adjustment program, Henry
A. Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture,]
said, “It is the nearest approach to'
balance that can he devised under the
contract and! from our present knowl-1
edge of existing circumstances. It
should result in a continued ample
supply of American cotton that can
be purchased by foreign and domestic
consumers at prices which, judged by |
past standards, are not unreasonable.
At the same time, this program seeks ]
to avoid piling uj> new and disastrous
surpluses.”
