Wool Referendum Set for September Vote
A Wool referendum will run September 12 to 23 through county offices of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service among wool and lamb producers. The plan, with the American Sheep Producers Council Inc, would let the Secretary of Agriculture withhold part of 1966 69 wool payments to fund advertising and promotion. If approved, deductions would be up to 1.5 cents per pound for shorn wool and 7.5 cents per hundredweight for unshorn lambs. Any owner of sheep six months old for at least 30 days since January 1 may vote.
