D. Sexson, state committeeman.; Crop insurance for wheat through this program will be available on the crop planted for harvest in 1939. The program guarantees that every insured wheat grower will have some w heat to sell every year regsw'iless of crop losses from un- ■ avoidable causes. Insurance against loss of yield, guaranteeing either one-half or three-fourth of a farmer’s average yield, will be available in any county or area where a sufficient number of farmers participate in the program. Details of the program will be explained at state meeting at Purdue University May 4 and 5, where extension workers and committeemen will prepare for a series of local meetings where farmers will have opportunit yto obtain crop insurance information. Crop insurance application blanks will be available in offices of county committees in June. Premiums tor insurance on next year's wheat • crop must be paid before the crop ’ lis seeded this fall. ;I — o Holding Company Act Pigeon-Holed ; ’ ’j Washington, May 3 (UP)— A ’ j senate banking and currency subj committee today pigeon-hol'>d for 1 ' this session any action on President I I Roosevelt’s proposal to regulate ban'k holding companies. The committee, under cliairntan- ' ship of Sen. Carter Glass, D., Va.. voted unanimously to defer action indefinitely on the bank holding com (rallies bill, one of the majoi recommendations of the President s anti-monopoly program. The action delays, at least until session, any action on the measure. The bill, sponsored by glass, would I prevent the creation ot additional ' lank holding companies, prohibit ■ existing companies from extending I their control to additional banks I and would improve numerous res- ■ uictions on their operation. oTrmlr In A N.
