Bankhead Law To Be Voted On December 14
Secretary Wallace fixed December 14 for cotton farmers to vote on continuing compulsory production control under the Bankhead act. Eligible voters will register between 3 and 5 p.m. and receive a ballot urging a yes or no on continuation. The act set a 10,460,000 bale national quota with 50 percent tax on production beyond that allotment. In South Carolina a state convention urged retention and proposed modifications to the act and acreage agreements, seeking an exemption of three bales for small farmers.
