Auburn extension director Dr L N Duncan says Alabama could receive 100 million dollars in direct payments if farmers voluntarily cut cotton acreage, aiming to curb production and stabilize prices amid heat and drought.

Powers of Roosevelt at peacetime high in record session
Washington June 21 AP reports unprecedented broad grants of direct and indirect powers to President Roosevelt from the first special session of the seventy third Congress. The measures allow printing money, adjusting the dollar's gold content, closing banks, impounding gold, leasing farm land, funding public works and farm relief, regulating industry and wages, and coordinating rail and currency actions. The presidency holds authority to issue bonds, inflate currency, through the Federal Reserve, and to open or reopen banks as needed. Congress can rescind or limit these powers, and the emergency grants are framed as temporary, enduring only during the declared emergency. The set includes a threefold farm relief plan, a self liquidating employment service, and expansive authority over banking and currency operations.
