Acreage Limit NEW PLAN WILL BE TO LEAVE DART OF COTTON, WHEAT FREE FOIt EXPORT By William S. White WASHINGTON, Nov. 12—(UP) — The new farm program to be presented to the next congress hy an AAA spokesman will turn sharply away from acreage restriction on the country’s two great money crops— cotton and wheat. instead, Chairman Jones, democrat Texas, of the house agriculture committee will recommortl a domestic allotment plan, by which the grower would be paid hrnefits only on the part of his production destined for consumption in this country, being left free to produce as much as he desires for the world market. The Texan, who stumped a dozen farm states in the recent campaign is support of the AAA and of demaeratic congressional candidates today flatly recognized as valid some of the criticism against the adjustment program as it now is operated and served notice the act "can and would be simplified.” He said he believed the plan, which would become effective upon expiration of present cotton and wheat production contracts, could be placed into effect without "material modification” of the act, but made it clear he was going to demand that modification. Jones made no comment as to the views of the administration, but it was generally taken for granted that Secretary Wallace had knowledge of the plan if he had not in fact ipprov-

ed it.

The Texan also said he wanted as much authority as possible placed hereafter in local hands. "The agricultural adjustment act has been of great value during the emergency,” he said, adding that farm prices had been materially increased and benefit payments had helped to sustain both the fanner and the small business man in the vast drought areas. i» “I feel, however, that the act can and should be simplified,’ 'he continued. "After the present contracts expire provision should be made to pay the premiums on that part of the production of cotton and wheat which goes into the domestic market, thus leaving the farmer free to make his own adjustments and to produce for the foreign markets. "A production basis should be established by local committees for each farm. Each farmer should he paid premiums on this production basis—in other words, on his portion of the domestic market. Then each farmer should be permitted to produce what he wishes to be sold in the markets of the world, but be paid premiums only on the part which he produces for ihe domestic market. "In this way the American farmer could continue to sell his products in the world markets. In no sense ran he afford to surrender these foreign markets.” Jones has expressed alarm privately at the agricultural loss in the export market, particularly as applied to cotton. He has told AAA officials he hopes the Bankhead cotton production control act will not he continued another year.

FR\NCE RITLDS C’ONVOV SHIPS PARIS, (UP) Taking advantage of the absence of a limit on small convoy escorts in the London naval treaty, the French navy has placed five more under construction at the Nantes shipyards. These vessels, which displace about 600 tons, are a new type of destroyer specially designed for convoys and are fast and heavily armed for their size Substitution of electric soldering for rivets in certain parts of the ship allow extra weight to be devoted to defense equipment. ( apable of 34 knots, these ships have a cruising speed of 18. Their armament includes two 100 millimeter guns, four 100 millimeter torpedo launchers and five anti-aircralt machine guns. Besides the convoy escorts the Nantes shipyards have received the order to construct the Volta, a new type torpedo chaser, whose sister ship, the Mogador, is under construction at Lorient.

future is to be the equivalent of the present chamber of deputies. Premier Benito Mussolini made the announcement of the compulsory work programs in his speech Saturday inaugurating the council of corporations. It was not emphasized at that tini". Mussolini said: “The fascist revolution maintains the principle of equality of all individuals regarding work as a social duty." It means the searching out of a somewhat large leisure class and the insistence that its members go to work. The work program principally strikes the old landed aristocracy, which for centuries has lived in the world's capitals while its lands have been developed at home hy hired administrators. Like the program for the new corporative state, the work-for-all idea is the development of years of study. As far back as 1925, Mussolini attacked the aristocracy for "loafing around in the deluxe hotels when they are needed in the colonization of the Italian territories in Africa.”
