THE DEVICE WAS BUILT BY BRITISH ENGINEERS m Says Cotton Problem Is National Problem “The beginning of wisdom in solving the cotton problem, is to remember that it cannot be solved except in cooperating with agri culture as a whole”, said Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace in an address to farmers at Little Rock, Arkansas, May 26. “The cotton problem is a nation al problem”, the Secretary said futher. “Only by solving it can we be sure that the South, which has long taken the short end, gains its proper share in our national income. Only by solving it can we keep American agricul ture as a whole on the road to its well deserved gains.” Towards a solution of the cotton problem Secretary Wallace propos ed this five-point program. First, continuation of the loan as a protection for the farmer’s price of cotton. Second, continuation of benefit payments to build and protect both incomes and soil resources. Third, increased efforts to ex pand domestic consumption. Fourth, maintenance of our fair share of the world market—now, by the necessary export subsidy program; as soon as possible, ar. for the long run, by an inte: - national agreement on cotton ar: by the reciprocal trade agree - ments program. Fifth, attainment of a moie nearly fair and equitable division of the national income with farm ers through a processing tax, or its equivalent, to serve as a con- tinuing source of revenue. 81,209 malaria Cases reported in the U.
