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."
