WALLACE TO
OPPOSE LOAN ON
COTTON CROPS
Washington, Aug. 21 (IP) Secre
tary of Agriculture Henry A. Wal
lace today cautioned AAA Adminis
trator Chester C. Davis by telegraph
against any "gift loan" on the 1935
cotton crop.
The telegram was taken to indi
cate that Wallace was opposed to
announcement of a 12-cent loan on
cotton while prices- are around 11
cents, as at present.
Cotton interests, including a num
ber of senators and representatives,
have brought pressure to bear on
the administration seeking continu
ance of the 12-cent loan basis which
was established for the 1934 crop.
Wallace is not enroute to adoress
soybean growers at Evansville, Ind
He will visit Des Moines, Ames,
Iowa, (August 22-24) and Logan,
Utah. Wallace's telegram from Cin
cinnati was the first indication from
an administration source of clear-
cut opposition to the 12-cent loan.
Wallace suggested that Davis con
sult with Rep. Marvin Jones. D.,
Tex., chairman of the house agri
culture committee, in an effort to
work out a loan figure which would
not be on a "gift" basis.
If the government loaned growers
12 cents a pound on cotton and
market quotations stayed below that
figure, the government would be left
with the cotton, since it would be
more profitable for the growers to
leave the cotton In the governments
hands than to order it sold in the
open market.
It was understood, meantime, that
plans for the cotton loan were being
whipped into final shape with legal
experts drafting the form that it
will lake. The amount of the loan,
however, was understood to be still
under discussion.

ZIONISTS PLAN
VAST INDUSTRY
FOR PALESTINE
New York IP The great world
market of the future will be the Far
East and New Palestine, rising from
the dust of 2.000 years, is preparing
to supply that demand, Zionists be
lieve.
The World Zionist congress at
Lucerne, Switzerland, from Aug. 20
to Sept. 4, will direct more rapid
development of the Jewish National
homeland in anticipation of that
business, according to Morris Mar
gulics, secretary of the Zionist or
ganization of America.
'India's 400,000.000 won't always
wear the loin cloth and sheet like
Gandhi," Margulies said. "Some day
they will wear shirts and trousers
and ties, and the New Palestine
will be in a strategic position to sup
ply them."
China's millions and others of the
Far East will be consumers, too,
Margulies argues, and New Pales
tine will be ready.
That is the future to which the
Jewish National homeland looks at
the opening of its 19th biennial
congres. In being a haven for op
pressed Hebrews of the world it is
looking for outlets for the industry
that will support New Palestine's
increasing populace.
Great Britain already has recog

Recolonization of Palestine has

SUES FOR DIVORCE
Dallas Suit for divorce has been
filed by Ina M. Penner against Cor
nelius C. Penner in which the plain
tiff seeks $10 a month for the sup
port, maintenance ana education of
the minor child. No propjerty inter
ests are involved. The couple were
married at Dallas on April 18, 1935.
Mrs. Mahnkey, we count It the best
of all submitted because it is simply
and beautifully written, without
straining for effect; it is friendly
and objective, Mrs. Mahnkey intro
duces her own comments here and
there, but always sparingly and with
balance."
The contest called for the work
of writers and understanding re
porters who knew new3 without hav
ing to be told from a desk, and who
wefe possessed of a sense of values
which detects the great in the small.
for Growers
way today among the fuggles
industry was tne center 01 tne
in 25 years or more, or at least
- . tt--
"Wn CTP C'"nl "
vines In the yards of Oregon, with
probably 5,000 additional day la
borers to take care of the work
handled by the pickers.
If all the hops are picked this
year and there's a good likelihood
they will not be, it is estimated 125,-
000 bales would be the state's har
vest as compared to 117,000 bales
last year. In Washington and Cal
ifomia 55,000 bales are expected
from each state or another 110.000
bales to add to the 125,000 from
Oregon or 235,000 bales from the
coast states.
Hop dealers estimate fehat a brew
of 50,000,000 barrels of beer would
consume 185,000 bales of hops,
showing an excess of 50,000 bales
from the 1935 crop on the fifty mil
lion barrel estimate.
But the picture presented grows
darker as the curtain is raised
farther. There Is an estimated
carryover of 40,000 bales from the
1934 crop, and 40,000 bales more of
the old hops produced from 1929
to 1933, with which, taking over the
estimated 50,000 bales excess of the
1935 crop there would be 135,000
bales to carry over into 1936.
These figures present part of the
reasons why all of the 1935 crop
might not be picked. But there
are other reasons, principally fi
nancial, as many growers have ex
pressed the belief that their hops
are not worth picking based on
the return from today's market.
Still another reason is a warn
ing going out from all dealers to
the growers to pick nothing but
prime hops, to avoid red spider,
mold and also dirty picking. It Is
reported that red spider is in the
fuggles and clusters- too, but the
fuggles will be picked soon but red
spider is said to be making pro
gress in the clusters and Is apt to
have a serious effect on the quality
of the hops, and require careful
picking and handling to get out the
quality hops that dealers say they
must have if they are going to sell
them this year.
The price situation Is far from
encouraging, in fact probably in the
past 25 years only 1916 has present
ed a real counterpart of present
market conditions when growers
figured they were lucky to get pick
ing money out of current crop hops.
At present it is said 1934 hops
are worth 5 cents a pound, 1933
hops about a cent a pound and the
old olds about a dollar a bale.
This won't pay the storage costs on
these hops.
Most of the brewers, the big ones
at least, are said to be loaded up
with hops to January 1.
Many brewers are reported to
have repudiated their high price
contracts of 1933 with some of them
taking section 77b under the bank
ruptcy act. Eastern dealers are
said to have in some cases given
brewers reductions of 10, 15 and
20 cents on their contracts and
some of the dealers in Oregon arc
compromising and giving cash to
buy off the growers from their
contract. As an Instance one deal
was made where 15 cents in cash
was paid per pound on a 30 cent
contract and the contract torn up
leaving the grower to get what he
can out of his hops, in addition to
the 15 cents.
Contracts three years ago were
made as high as 60 cents, with
most of the high priced ones run
ning 50, 40 and 30 cents, with this
the last year to run at 30 cents.
One contract was made on a five
year basis at better than 33 cents a
pound for each of the five years.
This contract ts said to be still
holding. But a lot of the repudi
ated contracts are now in the shape
of law suits and before masters in
bankruptcy.
Of course, increased production
has played one of the heaviest roles
In bringing about the present situ
ation. When the country went wet
again there was something over
15.000 acres In hops in Oregon. Now
there are over 26,000 acres. There
were about 500 growers when the
country returned to the wet regime
and now there are over 1,000.
Not only, declared one hop deal
er, must growers this year pick and
bale only prime quality hops, but
he Is of the opinion that If the 80,
000 bale carryover of old hops isn't
taken out and burned that the hop
Industry is standing on the edge of
a cliff that will completely wreck
it. He cited the possibility of a
135,00 bale carryover in 1936 and
declared that "as long as this situ
ation continues brewers can give
what they want to for hops and get
all the hops for what they want to
give. A holocaust of the 80,000
bales of hops on which brewers pin
their present faith would mean the
salvation of the Industry, along
with restricted acreage and pro
duction. If this can't be forced one
way conditions arc bound to force
some such solution," he said,

WORD ON FILBERTS
COMES FROM PARIS
The foreign agricultural service
division of the U. S. bureau of agri
cultural economics recently gave the
following cabled information from
Agricultural Attache Nielsen at the
Paris office, on foreign filberts:
The estimated filbert production is
as follows: Short tons, unshelled:
Italy 1935 estimate 16,000 tons, com
pared with 25,000 tons in 1934; Spain
1935 estimate 25,000 tons, compared
with 38,000 tons last year; Turkey
55,000 tons compared with 37,000 last
year.
Sicily production this year is ex
pected to about equai that of last
year but in the Naples district of
Italy, which ts the most important
to the United States, production this
year is expected to be 50 percent
less than last year. Remaining
stocks of filberts In Italy and Tur
key are of little Importance but
Spain has a liberal supply. Total old
crop stock in these three countries
is probably about the same as last
year at this date.
