Washington analysis notes that a proposed strike by the Packing House Workers Organization Committee, claiming 78,000 members among 129,000 meat industry workers, could force major Armour plants to close and affect Swift, Cudaly, and Wilson. Officials' stance and farmer support could shape 1940 election dynamics and Roosevelt administration policy.

Bounty Paid on U S Cotton Exports to Boost Trade
Secretary Wallace announced a new export bounty to pay exporters one and a half cents per pound for cotton exported or for export sale by June 30 1940 and an equivalent credit on processed cotton goods. The program aims to restore the United States share of world markets, offset price disparities, and maintain American cottons competitive position with payments tied to net weight. Officials expect 6 000 000 to 7 000 000 bales abroad in the next year and invite参加 nations to September discussions on a global cotton agreement.
