AM LISTS PROFIT
OF $64,956,594
WITHIN2 YEARS
Organization's Plans Call
for Continuance of Crop
Control Program to Keep
Prices From Slumping
By HARKY KEKGIRON
(United Presa Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON. March 15 (UP)
The Agricultural Adjustment Admin
istration, which for almost two years
has been In the buslnew of trying to
persuade farmers not to raise too
many pigs or grow too much corn,
could close up shop tomorrow with a
net profit of 94,9Sfl,394.
But It doasn't Intend to do so.
In the spring of 1933 conffreaa cre
ated the AAA, handed it $100,000,000
and told It to do something to save
the nation's farmers 'rom being
ground to pieces by debt and by
farm prices that were too low to make
It worthwhile to plant an acre of
corn.
Prom that time until Janlary 31,
1935, It wait learned today, the AAA
has poured $585,921,943 Into the farm
ers pocket. That money represents
benefit payments cash handed to
farmers who pledged themselves to
curtail their crops, kill their surplus
pigs and try to raise farm prices by
cutting down the surplus that vas
glutting the market. That Is the red
Ink side of the ledger.
On the credit side the AAA has
collected $693,878,537 In processing
taxes. That comes from a levy tra
posed upon the men who take the
raw material from farms and convert
it Into finished foodstuff redy to
put on the table such as millers and
packers. That tax, along with other
factors such as the drouth, is driv
ing food prices up. Roughly speak
ing, the AAA is taking money away
from the consumer and giving it to
the farmer.
As the AAA swings into Its third
year, officials are heedless of the
cries of critics who complain that the
organisation i destroying food wr;le
the Jobless go hungry and plowing
under cotton while the irapoveris.'U'd
need clothing. Foes of the organisa
tion stilt talk about slaughter of 6.
000.000 pigs in the fall of 1933. Econ
omist call the AAA foimula "the
economics of scarcity." meaning the
artificial bolstering of prices by keep
ing foodstuffs off the mafeet.
The high AAA oflclal said today
the org am ration's plans call for a
continuation of the economic of
scarcity.
"We are going to allow farmers to
raise Just enough to feed the coun
try, keep an adequate reserve of food
on hand In ease of drouth or some
other form of disaster nd establish
stocks to sell to foreign countries
when and If international trade ope a
up. Anything beyond that la a sur
plus that cannot be sold a d anger jus
surplus that would force farm prices
down again."
The fact that the consumer is pay
ing more for bis food Is not a direct
concern of the AAA. The original
idea back of the recovery program
was that NRA would take care of that
by hoisting the wage scale. The AAA
was charged with Increasing the pur
chasing power of the farmer, and has
done so. It cannot claim all the
credit, however, because tne devalua
tion of the dollar contributed con
siderably. Many members of congress charge
there has been food profiteering a
a result of the AA program. Sen
Burton K. Wheeler. (D Mont.) has
introduced a resolution to Investigate
whether there has been profiteering
Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wal
lace has promised to try to protect
the consumer from being gouged.
The AAA says its $64,956,594 profit
will dlsapear eventually. It merely
wants to break even between pay
menu and processing taxes.

make amendments."
Ovllu Dlonne, father of the quints;
his manager, Leo Kervin, and his
father, Olivier Dlonne, arrived today.
They reportedly have retained coun
sel tn an elfort to have the bill
blocked.
"I don't care." added the premier,
"what Kervin or anyone else says
or docs who seeks to exploit these
children. Kervin would have sacri

the minister said.
The premier Introduced Dr. Dafoe
to the assembled legislators, who
tendered him a thunderous ovation.
Hepburn said Dlonne had -signed
contracts to exhibit the quintuplets

reason the bill was drawn up to
prevent such recurrences.
