Farm Board Faces Cotton Surplus Relief Dilemma
Washington dispatch reports the farm board has yet to approve a viable cotton surplus relief plan. After reviewing hundreds of proposals since August 1, officials consider most unworkable and may limit action to financing holding for the 1931 crop through cooperatives. The board also contemplates retaining 1,300,000 bales for another year and urges acreage reduction, with drastic destruction proposed for one third of the current crop.
