P2CC1E EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUOT, MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1934. Action Taken In Response To Widespread Demand By Farmers Plan Held Crop And Price Insurance- WASHINGTON. Feb. 3S. (AP) Cheater C. Davie, farm administrator, aid today the campaign ot last fall to sign up wheat growers In a com pact to reduce production would be reopened. . The action was taken, Da via said, In response to a wide-spread demand of farmers who did not sign last year. "The reopening, which applies to approximately 13,000,000 acres of un contracted normal wheat land, fol lows many requests for such action from growers In practically all of the wheat growing states," Davis explain ed. Farmers who sign up during the earning campaign will receive the sec ond benefit payment of eight cents a bushel scheduled to go to 1033 sign ers, and the 1934 and 1935 adjust ment payments. Davis described the wheat reduc tion plan as "a measure of crop In surance and price Insurance." He said It would protect farmers to the extent of their allotment payment against possible crop failure this year and If the prices of things farmers ouy m- eresse faster than the price or wheat, benefit payments also will advance. The parity price achieved by mak ing the benefit payments applies to the farmer's allotment, wnicn is o per cent of the average production for the base period. George E. rarrell, head of the wheat section, said the campaign would begin immediately with the same committees which eonauctea the 19SS sign-up campaign In 1450 counties taxing up the work where they left off.

Will Rogers, a country schoolmaster with a well known name, took his seat In the present congress last March deter mined to make himself felt from the start. Defying the traditional rule that first-termers are to be seen rather than heard, Rogers started off with a bang. He began ft crusade against the rule of seniority by attempting to persuade the huge crop of Demo cratic congressmen who came In on the Roosevelt landslide to assert their rlchta. "As new men In the house.' he urged his "rookie" colleagues, "el though we might not know as much about practical politics as the older members, we certainly might be Just as Intelligent." He didn't get very far, however. He was not long In discovering that seniority la a congressman's most prized possession, dearer to him than any of his rights. An Unusual "Whereas The 36-yoar old Oklahoman grad ually slipped back Into the obscur ity which envelops most first-term ers In the house, his hopes for ft larger voice In the affairs of that body About gone. Then In the present session he In troduced a bill known as HR0408. In many respects HR6458, so far as proposed legislation Is concerned, should be placed In ft claas by Itself. Read the first "Whereas" and Judge for yourself: "Whereas passage of this bllt could not possibly do harm, would cost the government nothing, and would con tribute In great measure toward bringing Immediate relief torn ef fects causated by past chaotic eco nomic conditions, and would work restitution of billions of legitimate values which now appear to be lost to those who worked ft lifetime In their acquisition: There's nothing dull or technical there. It's ft fMlrer More Rogers' HR6488 calls for free and unlimited coinage of silver sD Its market value. It creates new, ancillary, sllref currency, the unit of which Is the quanto." containing one ounce of sliver, divided Into 100 "quantlmes. The "quanto" Is made eligible at the commodity market value of the sil ver It contains as ft reserve for dol lar currency. No one would be compelled to ie this money, but should there be an agreement amonr parties to use the 'quanto" as legal tender for foreign and domestic transactions, It would became a member of the currency family. The proposal la not likely to get very far. It has, however, attracted ft lot of attention to the former Oklahoma school teacher.
