Wheat Farmers To I Vote Friday on Marketing Control I Washington Li.P' Wheat i farmers in .'16 states vote Friday ! in a national referendum on rigid government marketing controls for their 1957 crop, i The Agriculture Department i has taken no stand for or against controls for the 1956 crop.

But department economists predict privately tiie growers will approve overwhelmingly a eontioestmu of coiiir-nls iri ef fect fot the 1D54 55-56 crops.

Under controls, farmers who deposit part of their JS57 wheat acreage in the soil bank will be assured of government pay ments of SI. 20 a bushel for the wheat they do not produce next year. If they don't accept con trols, the soil bank payments would be based on the 50 per ' cent parity rate. This would pro vide a soil bank return to the farmer of onlv 73 cents a bushel.

Your correspondent vvas there for tiie United Press, and for w ecks afterward, he could not get out of his mind the rolling, rhythmical routine with which the first 102 presidential ballots began : "Alabama." bellowed the reading clerk, L'p popped the governor of ! Alabama, to shout above the hubbub, there being then no such things as floor micro- phones: "Alabama casts 24 votes for Oscar W. Underwood." Underwood was a favorite son. a Uniied States senator and an avowed opponent of woman suf frage. His chance for the nomi nation was nil. but his candidacy gave his state's delegation a safe place to roost. The woman suf- $ tT. lb. lb. tat 4lj the broke, exhausted delegates hurriedlv, hopelessly nominated John W. Davis, of West Virginia. with Charles W. Bryan, of Ne braska, in second place. Thereafter the Democrats spent eight years recovering the strength to put their man in the White House. Minus the two thirds rule the odds against another such are long, indeed. j 3ntl the convention rules now are stacked against it. that is by reason of the so-called unit rule whereby the entire delegation of any state is bound to cast all its ballots for the choice of the ma jority of the delegation.
