Officials there said the plan was carefully thought out and there Is bo reason for altering it. This will be their answer: The 65 per cent bests for subsidy Is necessary for two reasons: 1. Tto keep the payments within the 1130,000,000 appropriated by con gress. 3. To play fair with the majority of cotton growers who have co-operated with this year's soil conserva tion program. They have already re duced their acreage voluntarily. They might, therefore, possibly get a sub sidy which would amount to 100 per cent of their actual crop. The fel lows who didn't reduce acreage will get only 65 per cent. Officials further pointed out that the restrictions on the subsidy related to the base production i Identical with the 1985 plan, when payments were based, on the Bank head allotments for that year. Subsidy payments. It was explained are not necewwrlly limited to 65 per cent of the 1937 base production, for the plan, as previously annopneed, provides that, If the payments do not approximate the total amount appro priated, payments will be made with reference to a larger proportion or the base production.

There la noth ing to It. Expert both In the designing and th wearing of dresses agree that: 1. Nothing In current style trends indicate a return to the daya when all women exhibited their knees. 3. Dress length will remain about where they are, slightly ehorter In the United States than In Europe because. It Is ssld, American wo men have better looking legs than Europeans). 8. The great majority of women (having eathetlcally Imperfect kneea) are against extremely short dresses. Ms Dawson, dress buyer for fashionable New York store, recently returned from Europe, pooh-poohed th rumored possibility that knee lengths were coming back. Dresses for street wear win con tinue to hang on the average about 14 Inch from the ground.' an ssld. "snd venlng dresses will near ly all be ankle length or Just touch ing the floor." A few evening dresses, she said. will have uneven hems shorter In front than behind but there'll be hardly any of th mid-calf typ. Mis Dawson said that for most women the mid-calf length waa "the most becoming" for street wear. Anything shorter la downright "ugly" not to mention "annoying on subway seat and windy comers.' N. Norell, chief dress designer for an exclusive shop, said he saw some evening dresses In Psrls which fell nearer than seven or eight Inches to the floor but that only young women with virtually perfect legs went In for them.

Mr. Olorl Morgan Vanderbllt. who ha a dress shop, said she ex pected no "radical" changes In skirt lengths, nd ss for th extravagant knee length typ "abaoluuly not." Mrs. Rsymond Ives, fashion editor of Vogu. said she. too. saw a few relatively short evening dresses In Psrls but that most of them fell to th ankles or Instep, torn touching the ground. She said American street dresses would be cut to hang 18, 14 or 18 Inehe from the ground, depending upon th wearer proportions, and that they would be on the average aomewhat shorter than European designs. Mrs. T. Red vreeland, faahlon editor of Harper's Basaar, said that atreet dresses reached their "celling" laat year and would be no ehorter thla. None of the expert would pre dict that the style cycle would com plete Itself, bringing a return of knee length dresses, but most of them expressed the fervent hope It would not. .
