Public forum letter on 1956 cotton allotment and farm policy
Ernest Rea of Childress County Farm Bureau urges support for a Texas cotton allotment plan discussed by 1800 delegates in Fort Worth. He notes that 2 percent of state allotment should stay with the ASC and be redirected to hardship farms and new growers, with rest distributed by five year moving averages. He criticizes prior actions and calls for farmer input before election.
