Cotton Plan Advances Four Year PIK Program
House cotton sub committee tentatively approves a four year mandatory program to eliminate the price differential with payment in kind certificates for handlers to sell to domestic and foreign mills at the same price. A three year program allowing up to 30 percent more acreage begins in 1964 with payment of the world price differential. Gathings and Cooley say a final cotton bill could be ready soon as 1963 planting is imminent to aid U.S. mills and preserve farmer subsidies.

Two officers must arm a missile, with remote safety checks and crew surveillance to weed out unsuitable personnel. Dietz notes better morale during crises but worries boredom and stress at other times.
