Farmers Favor Corn Hog Control
Washington Oct 17 Farmers vote two to one to continue federal corn hog production control for 1935 and the AAA will seek to honor their wishes. An adjustment plan to replace the expiring program is being prepared and will be offered before Christmas holidays.

The decision followed a poll of 527 888 producers, including signers and non signers of 1934 adjustment contracts, with 356 212 liking administration critics call regimentation.
