COLLEGE STATION, Nov. 21.
—Practicing the democracy they
believe in, farmers and ranchmen
all over Texas will gather in com-
munity meetings December 13 or
14 to elect the men to administer
AAA program locally during the
coming year.
At each of these meetings of
AAA cooperators, three men will
be elected to serve as community
committeemen during the coming
year. At the same time, delegates
will be selected to attend a county
convention to be held the follow-
ing day.
Delegates to the county con-
ventiohs will elect three commit-
teemen to administer the program
in the county. In addition, two al-
ternate committeemen will be e-
lected.
“The committee set-up is the
most important phase of the en-
tire program,” George Slaughter,
chairman of the state AAA com-
mittee declared. “These men are
chosen because of their adminis-
trative abilities, and on them de-
pends the success or failure of the
farm program in their counties.”
Farmer-control of the program
is an actuality, not just an idea,
the chairman continued. He cited

undefeated, could tie with Clar-
