10. Q. How will thg outcome of the
.referendum 'December 7 affect mar-
keting quotas for 1941? /
A. The Secretary of Agriculture has
proclaimed marketing quotas for 1941,
■but the quotas will not be in effect
unless two thirds of the cotton farm-
ers voting by secret ballot iu the forth-
coming referendum give their approv-
al.
20. Q. Who is eligible to- vote in the
referendum? '
A. Ail 1040 cotton producers are
eligible to vote.
Up To Fanners
Cotton farmers have joined whole-
heartedly in a cooperative effort to
make a better living from the soil and
to lift the general level of American
agricultural life.
During 1038, 1030, and 1040, more
than 90 per cent of all cotton grow-
ers in the country us a whole partici-
pa ted in the farm program.
Tht* results of the three - previous
votes on marketing quotas are evidence
.of cooperation among cotton farmers.
It is now up to them to decide again
whether they want to continue using
marketing quotas.
Quotas will not be in effect unless
at least two-thirds of the cotton pro-
ducers who vote on December 7 vote
in favon of them.

which comparisons of

cannibt be carried betause'.the;’ra-
tio of values subeet to fire loss
to the population will be found
to differ radically as between
various communities.
“This fact has been recognized
by the International Association
of Fire Chiefs. Per capita fire
loss figures are of great interest
in indicating whether the fire
losses of a community have risen
or decreased in a given period of
time in relation to its previous
record, provided there has been j
no material change in property'
values or populations; but allow-
ance must be made for the dis-
parity in the values subject to fire
and their relation to population
in arriving at any comparisons as
between communities.’’
In other words, it is obvious
that two cities having an equal
per capita fire loss may not be
equal in the efficiency of their fire,
defense*. One city may have two
or three times as much per capita
wealth exposed to fire as the
other. There are too many factors
which may cause fire, to make it
possible to judge any town’s suc-
cess in fighting it, on the basis

WYirld War?
A. Although cotton producers are
facing serious difficulties, they are in
a much stronger position than they
were in 1914-1916. There is in the
farm program, the machinery for deal-
ing with many important domestic
and foreign problems affecting the na-
tional welfare. Through a democratic
procedure more than two million cot-
ton farmers are cooperating In an ef-
fort to bring the supply in line with
effective demand. The cotton loan
prevents Collapse of the price struc-
ture. Concerned efforts are being
, - made to improve the domestic market,
found—then 1 Exikirt payments have been used to

to compete in price with foreign cotton

This Is the great Okefenokee Swamp.
On its fringe live a sturdy people who
have remained pioneers with Nature
as their only friend and their bitterest

Thursday and his young wife, Han-

Ben's hound, Trouble. And here live
Jesse Wick, the strolling singer who
coveted Hannah, and the McKenzies,
with their daughter, Mabel. And the
vicious Ddrson brothers, waiting for
vengeance on Tom Keefer, who had
killed their kin and run away. The
story, ’set against the somber back-
ground of the dreaded swamp, will
carry you into a strange world where
lite and death walk side by side."

as compared with American cotton.
3. <}. What is the current domestic
' consumption situation?
A. Lust swisoji domestic consump-
tion reaclied a total of 7 3/4 million
halt's. For the current season, indica-
tions are that this figure may rise
to S or 8—1/2 million bales. One rea-
son for this favorable situation is the
increase in industrial activity. Another
element making for an active domes-
tid market is the launching rtf several
programs by tlie Department of Agri-
culture-—such as the mattress-making
project-/-to increase the home consump-
tion of cotton. Export payments on
Cotton, goods 8old abroad lb another
stimulant to the domestic trade.
How Quotas Operate
4. Q. What is a farm marketing
quota?
A - The 1911 marketing quota for a
farin will be the cotton acreage allot-
ment multiplied by the Ui tual of-nor-
mal yield, whichever is the larger,
plus ,-iny carry-over cotton which could
have been marketed without penalty
In ilHtl.
5. Q. If marketing quotas are in
effect, how much cotton inay a farm-
ers sell from his 1941 crop without
penalty?
A. He may sell an amount of cot-
I ton equal to the farm marketing
| quota. As in previous years, a farmer
i who plants within his 1941 acreage
jallotment may sell without penalty all
i the cotton iu1 produces in 1941.
6. Q. Whitt are the marketing quota
penalties?
A. If a farmer overplants his acre-
age allotment, he- will be subject to a
penalty of three cents per pound on
cotton marketed in excess of his ipmts.

12. Q. What can a producer do about
his farm marketing quota when it
seems unfair to him?
A. The producer may appeal to a
review committee, which is made up
of farmers who are not inembOrs of
the committee which established the
farm acreage allotment. It is the duty
of the marketing quota review com-
mittee to determine whether the quota
Was established according to law.
13. Q. If marketing quotas are in
effect for 1941, will they be applicable
to States, counties, and communities
where the favorable vote was fess
than the required majority?
A. Yes. The cotton problem is a
national problem and cannot be con-
fined to nny State or locality. Conse-
quently, quotas, if voted into effect,
will apply wherever cotton is pro-
duced,
duced.
14. Q. iHow are cottoh loans affected
by marketing quotas? 7’ *
A. The Agricultural Adjustment Act
specifically provides that if quotas
are rejected by vote of the producers
in referendum, no loans can be made
from the date the result of that re-
ferendum is proclaimed until the next
succeeding marketing year which, in
this case, would be August 1« 1M2.
