Ray Inskeep outlined 1944 AAA plans on soil and water, dairy feed, and compensation, with most committee members re-elected for 1945. O. M. Lassen praised high production amid labor limits and cited 1941- wartime results. Barr noted cotton growers face a four cent bounty per pound and outlined options to stabilize prices using fixed U S price, export, and potential farmer insolvency risks.
