TO APPLY PLAN TO WHEAT IMMEDAITELY WASHINGTON, D. C. - The department of agriculture has announced that the radical .“domestic allotment" plan of farm relief is to be applied immediately to the wheat crops of the nation. The plan, as outlined, contemplates the, government in the role of ele-1 vator of farm profit. A tax, estimat-| ed now'at approximately 30 cents A: bushel, is to be levied on the processors of wheat. With the income from' this source the government will pay ' to every farmer who agrees to re-, duce his acreage by a-stipulated per-' ventage a compensating amount based on his average production fori domestic consumption in the preceding three years. i Acerage Cut Undetermined Pending the outcome of the London. international economic conference, at which it is hoped to secure some sort of international agreement affecting reductions in wheat acreage, the amount of reduction to be required of American wheat farm-1 ers under the plan has not been de-., cided. In no event, the department said today, however, is the required reduction to exceed 20 per cent. j Nor was the amount of processing tax to lie levied on the processors of wheat announced. Under the plan, : this tax will represent the differences in relation to purchasing power, be-: tween the average price of wheat ' between 1909 and 1914 and the present market price of the grain. As the purchasing power of the dollar is | figured now to be at the same level as in the 1909-’l4 period, the tax will probably approximate 30 cents a I bushel, or the difference between the pre-war average price of wheat and • the existing market price. May Continue Through 1935 At the outset, the plan is to apply in the marketing years 1933, 1934 and | 1935, leaving the department to decide whether at the end of that time it shall be entirely discontinued or displaced by some other program. The first compensating payments to farmers who agree to reduce acreage are expected to be made about Sept. 1, the secretary said, while the date for the initial imposition of the processing tax is to be announced in a proclamation to be issued by him shortly. Approximately 15 million dollars is expected by the department to be distributed in compensating payments to farmers in the first year. Most of this amount is to be drawn from the federal treasury under authority granted the secretary in the farm relief bill, but the treasury is to be reimbursed when proceeds from the processing tax begin to come in. First Payment Sept. 1 The compensating payments to farmers are to be promised on the farmer’s signing of the contract to reduce his acreage in 1934 and 1935. Two-thirds of the payment is to be paid the farmer on or about Sept. 1, 1933, and the remaining one-third will be allowed him when he has lived up to his contract to reduce the next planting. The basis of allotment of the 150 million dollars in benefit money was outlined by the secretary as follows: Each state will be allotted an amount in proportion to its part of the national average production in the preceding five years. Each county is to be allotted its share on the same basis and each individual farmer will be given his proportionate amount on the basis of his average production in the preceding three years. Only that part of the partners' produce estimated to represent wheat for domestic consumption will figure in the allotment, however, it being now estimated that that part will amount to about 80 per cent of his crop.

President Roosevelt sent peppery answers to those nations that defaulted on th%ir payment of War debts. Finland was offered a discussion of the war dfebts. France’s offer of discussion was not mentioned in America’s reply to her. June 19. The world economic parley was in a deadlock due to France’s insistence that the currency of all nations must be stabilized before anything else could be accomplished. The American delegation acting under instructions from President Roosevelt are opposed to stabilization at this time, fearing that the price gain which has been nVade in this country will be checked or lost. Senator Key Pittman urged, the adoption of a different monetary unit. He suggested that silver be used up to one fifth of the reserve and a reduction in coverage of currency from 40 per cent to 25 per cent. Talk of adjournment was heard on every side. June 20. Alarmed by further depreciation of the American dollar, high French officials asserted that a proposal for adjournment of the world economic conference would be presented, unless prospects for stabilization were brighter.
