Conferee Signatures Due On Bankhead Cotton Bill
Washington April 12 AP Conferee signatures were due today on a compromise Bankhead cotton bill aimed at stabilizing prices and trimming surplus.

The plan sets a 10,000,000 bale output cap for the next crop year and bases quotas on the past five years. President Roosevelt supports the compulsory provision amid criticism that it could mark broader farm-regimentation moves.
