St. Joseph County Farmers Join in Wheat Control (Continued from Page One) also be inquired into by the committee. It is probable that the committee itself will not make these examinations, but will employ an inspector who will visit each farm and report the manner in which the contract has been carried out. It is not probable that fields will be j measured unless there is evidence । of failure to meet the requirements । of the contract. j Money has already been set aside for the payment of wheat parity premiums by the United States Treasury and will be forwarded upon the completion of the contracts, by farmers and community committees. M heat Growers Association Formed The wheat campaign was placed under the direction of the county Agent's ‘office, where it was pursu- | ed until completed, and then turned over to the organization of wheat growers who had signed the applications. Each of the committees in St. Joseph county elected one director and two other members. This is the community committee and the directors represent their township on the Board of Directors of the Wheat Production Control Association of St. Joseph County, voting according to the number of bushels signed up in each respective township. This board of directors met in the co at house on Friday, September 2 2nd, and elected the following officers: President. Earl M. Bettcher, Liberty; Vice-pres., Dudley King. Center; Treasurer, Brother I.eo, Clay; Secretary, Martin Rupel, Greene. Other directors are: Chas. Lineback, Union; George W. Blaine, Lincoln; Roy Peterson. Warren; Ezra Smith, German; and Ralph Keller, Olive. The Allotment Committee was chosen as Earl Bettcher. Clem O. Mochel and Herb. D. Killian. The 441 wheat applications were placed in the hands of the allotment' committee and their work of correction and figuring allotments for the two newspaper publications has been completed. The first publication shows the acreage set out by each farm for the three years 193t-31-32. the production in bushels for each year and the acreage sown for harvest in ! 1933. Within the period between publications any interested individual may make a confidential complaint on any farm acreage figured to the allotment committee. Such complaint should be supported by evidence and will be held strictly confidential by the committee. The A. A. A.
