The War Food Administration suspended rigid AAA marketing quotas on the 1943 cotton crop after an Agriculture Department report showed 1943 acreage about 8 million acres less than the 30 million allowable. Farmers may now sell all harvested cotton without penalty while quotas had carried a tax of about eight cents a pound. Officials expect no quotas for 1944 as demand and uses rise while surpluses shrink.
