WEDNESDAY, APRIL 21. mi THE CANTAT, JOURNAL. SALEM, OREGON PLAN CONTROL OF PRODUCTION OF FARM CROPS Washington, April 21. (VPi The administration again Ls consider ing "definite and positive produc tion control" as part of a broad farm program. Secretary Wallace and H. R. Tol ley, agricultural adjustment admin istrator, made that disclosure to a Houm; subcommittee In hearings on the agriculture drpartment appro priation bill, submitted today to the houc. Each expressed a belief addition al legislation, mi pplc meriting the soil conservation act, would be needed to obtain lor Die farmer hie rightful .share of the national In come. Tollry added, however, he did not know how production con trol could be legislated in view of the supreme court's AAA decision. I The court hold in that case that the federal government could not regulate crop production.) The agriculture department, Tol lry said, had been studying crop production control a.s ixirt of a five point procram which would be add ed to .soil con.se nation activities in an altrmpt to bring farm income and prices to parity with those of industry. The other parts that have been -under consideration for two or three months, he said, are: 1. Expansion of commodity loans on products held in storage by farmers to kerp excess supplies. In years of heavy yields, from depress ing prices. 2. Payment to farmers, in addition to soil conservation benetits, for additional acreace reductions in years when supplies become too tome. 3. Continued purchases of sur-pliif-en to remove them from the market. 4. Rpeakinc of possibilities of as suring farmer ability of income, Wallace said: "I think that a sys tem of commodity loans, backed in the end by production control that will sustain the commodity loans, mill bring about that stability."
