Wallace Announces Soil Conserving Program for 1939 Wheat Acre age Takes Largest Cut SKUNK CREEK CHANGE DELAYED BY PROJECT GRANTS PASS. Nov. 18.(AP) Skunk creek will keep Its malodor ous name for & while. City Attorney W. T. Miller opined todey. Bids were called yesterday for a 165,000 drain age and bridge project In which the creek Is mentioned by name. Miller satd that for the council to change to "Willow" creek, preferred substi tute, would cause complications. WASHINGTON. NOV. 15 (AP) Secretary Wallace approved today a 1930 soil conservation program pro viding for a reduction of about 7, 800,000 acres In the total allotment for major crops. The new maximum for soil-depleting crops of participating tanners will be from 370,000.000 to 285.000.000 acres. It will be lower than this year chiefly because of a reduced wheat allotment. 1 ' Congress has allotted $712,000,000 for benefits to farmers who comply. The program, which Is voluntary, is separate from the marketing quota provisions of the crop control act. which may become mandatory under certain conditions. i The voluntary program will follow the general outline announced Aug ust lfl. At that time next year's wheat allotment waa fixed at 55,000. 000 acres, compared with a seeded acreage of 80.000,000 this year and an allotment of 02,500.000 acres. Goal for cotton, corn, rloe, flue- cured tobacco and general soil -de ; pletlng crops will be virtually the same next year. II. M. Evans, agricultural adjust ment administrator, declared the 1930 program would offer the first complete test of the crop control law because the latter measure was en acted too Irfte to affect all 1938 planting. The AAA will conduct meetings throughout the country during the next few months to explain the pro gram to farmers In. advance of the planting season. - - National allotment for each crop will be apportioned among the at a ten and divided among Individual farms. The AAA will conduct referenda next month on whether cotton, rice and tobacco growera want marketing quotas Imposed In 1030. Quota provisions must be approved by at least two-third of the farmers voting in order to become effective. Once In force, they are mandatory. and penalties are provided for excels selling.

Adams, president of the American Bankers' association, de manded today the federal government reduce the deficit and begin paying the public debt. Making the annual president's ad dress, he said: "By way of self-defense and In or der to save the American system, we must organize our depositors and give them and all others who have accum ulated something an economic edu cation. This Is the only practical way I know of to resist the pressure groups and vote-buying poll 1 1 cans who are destroying and wasting the savings of our depositors and of all our citizens who have worked and saved. Must Awaken Depositors "Never should the American Bank ers' association remain silent when politicians are spending the country Into bankruptcy. We must take the battle to our depositors. We must make them realize that It Ls their fight; that ninety per cent of the assets of the country belong to them. ; "To the proposition that the worthy needy must be taken care of. the American Bankers' association is ; sincerely and wholeheartedly commit ted. But we must not forget the de- ! structlon of savings and the starva- i tlon of production mean the loaa of capacity to take care of the needy; that It la the thrifty citizens and not the government that must produce the money for thla purpose. In support of his argument, Adams quoted two presidents of the United States, Thomas Jefferson and Frank lin D. Roosevelt. Roosevelt Quoted Of Roosevelt, he said "In his message to congress on March 10, 1033, he said: 'For three lonR years the federal government has been on the road toward bank ruptcy. With the utmost seriousness I point out to the congress the pro found effect of this fact (the ac cumulated deficit of five billion dol lars) on our national economy. Zt has contributed to the recent collapse of our banking structure. It has ac centuated the stagnation of the eco nomic life of our people.' "The president," Adams said, "waa then very properly, concerned with an accumulated deficit of only five bil lions of dollars. We are now much more Justly concerned with an ever Increasing and growing deficit which, since the date of the president's con cern, has grown by fifteen billions of dollars." Later In his address, Adams quoted Jefferson "I place economy among the first and most Important virtues and pub lic debt as the greatest of dangers to be feared. To preserve our Inde pendence we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our choice between econ omy and liberty or profusion and seryitude'.."
