Thomas Breaks Tie to Aid Cotton Acreage Plan
Senator Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma switched with Southern colleagues to back a new cotton acreage bill. His green-bag plan would grant extra cotton acreage to farmers whose winter wheat was destroyed by green bugs, a move seen as a gesture to win farm support though Oklahoma grows the state’s main wheat and cotton crop. The vote hinged on Thomas and several conferees, while debates on housing aid continued as others pressed for procedural changes.
