PRICES Domestic 40 cents Market World .40 cents Market Under AAA World Market One awd one q u a rter billion bu shels o f wheats Enough to last the coun try 2 years, without growing a kernel. That’B how much wheat America has in sigh t A big crop is on the way. Foreign mark ets are nearly gone; the war blockades our customers ont and our wheat in. No chance for consuming more wheat in America: peo ple have been eating less wheat for years. More w heat a n d fewer m arkets! A few years ago th is would have m eant 40-cent wheat. But not now. L ast year far m ers used the AAA program to get an aver age retu rn of 80-cents. This year supplies dam m ed up by t h e . w ar threaten a price collapse. I t need not occur, because farm ers have the power and the m eans in the AAA program of dealing with price-breaking sur pluses. M arketin g quotas provide for such an emergency. Cotton and tobbaco farm ers have long used them . Now it’s up to w heat farm ers to decide w hether they w ant to protect their income in th is m anner. Quotas won’t be used unless two-thirds of all farm ers voting in a national referendum approve them. 1941 WHEAT PRICE Billion Bushel Supply Exports Almost Stopped War Reserve Needed Price Support Threaten'd QUOTA REFERENBUM CALLED How they work If approved, th e quotas will divide m ore equally among all growers the responsibility for adjusting to a limited m arket. Surplus wheat above the production from acreage allotm ents will be kept off the m arket. This keeps surpluses back until so m etim e when they are needed. Attend Meetings At: Grass V alle y M ay 26, 2 p.m. Kent PRICES poans, payments 20c Total 80c www 40 cents BILLION BUSHEL SUPPLY VERY LITTLE EXPORTS SUPPLY GOflfl EXPORT MARKET W h y Quotas? mi M ay 26, 8 p.m. To Whom They A p p ly U nder quotas the farm er who has seeded w ithin his acreage allotm ent can sell all the w heat he raises w ithout penalty. F u rth er more he can put it under Governm ent loan at the full rate. The m an who overseeded his allotm ent can sell w hat he raises on his alloted acreage ju st the sam e as the m an who complied with his allotm ent. If he sells his excess he m ust pay a penalty. He can get a Governm ent loan on his excess production, but only 60 percent of the full rate. Thus, quotas put all w heat farm ers on the same footing in th is tim e of surplus emergency. I f q u o t a s a re v o te d d o w n , Govern m ent w heat loans on the current crop are prohibited by law because loans on an un controlled surplus are an unw arranted risk of public money, W ithout loans, w heat far m ers would face falling prices. Many would shift to dairying, stock feeding, and poultry raising. Low-priced wheat resulting from un controlled surplus m eans lower income for other farmers. The wheat m arketing quota is a nation al question. It will be settled by farm ers. Ev ery farm er affected by the quota has one vote, w hether he grows wheat on 20 or on 20,000 acres.
