WHEAT ACREAGE REDUCTION
Washington A reduction in next
year's wheat plantings or more than
3 million acres was assured the agri
cultural adjustment administration
on the basis of latest reports on
their campaign to obtain agreements
among", farmers "to 'curtail acreage.
These showed that 219,818 wheat
growers up to Sept. 18 had signed
applications for contracts to join in
the voluntary domestic allotment
plan, thus agreeing to cut planting?
15 percent under acreage harvested
for three to five years up to July 1,
1932, in return for cash benefits.
The farmers who have signed con
trol of 21,291,694 acres, the damin
istration reported. If the contracts
are finally approved, application of
the 15 percent reduction of these
farmers would account for a reduc
tion of more than 3,193,000 acres.
There are approximately 1,200,000
wheat growers In the nation, but the
campaign is not being pressed in
areas where it is not commonly grown
or where It serves principally the
purpose of a rotating crop. Farmers
signing applications agree to reduce
their plantings in 1935 as well as
next year. The percentage of reduc
tion for that period has not been fix
ed, except that it will not exceed 20
percent.

Vote to Declare
a Farm Strike if
Demands Unmet
National Farmers' Holiday Associa
tion to Present Its Ultimatum
to the President.
Des Moines. The national farm
ers' holiday association meeting here
voted unanimously to declare a farm
strike on all products and ask the
co-operation of labor if its demands
embodied in an NRA code are not
complied with by the administration
The group of 1,200 persons, .rep
resenting approximately eighteen
states undertook the action in adopt
ing a resolution which declared "we
recommend that the board of direc
tors of the national farmers' holiday
association appoint a committee to
present these terms to the president,
and if he fails to comply we will
withhold all farm products from the
market and we direct all state organ
izations to hold a strike call in readi
ness. The code for agriculture adopt
ed by the meeting before acting on
its resolutions called for a guarantee
of cost of production prices on agri
cultural products, a maximum work
day of ten hours, except in cases of
emergency, and the setting of wages
by the American federation of labor.
The demands to be made upon the
president and the recovery adminis
tration, noncompliance with which
would be accepted as grounds for
calling the strike, were: Cost of pro
duction in conformity with the agri
cultural code; a definite and specific
pledge that congress will enact the
Frazier bill at the next regular ses
sion, immediate payment of the sol
dier's bonus by a currency issue and
the immediate use of the inflation
power of the president. The Frazier
bill provides for government refi
nancing of farm mortgages at 1
percent interest and 1 percent am
ortization each year, the cost to be
paid thru the issuance of currency
In general statements prefacing
the resolutions of the association
said that a possibility might exist
that producers would have to assunn
control of economic functions to se
cure justice; pledged its support to
labor and asked the assistance ol
labor in its aims, and condemned Sec
retary Wallace and. the crop reduc
tion methods of the administration.
Some opposition developed on the
floor to the adoption of a code, George
D. Iverson of Baltimore, and Lean
Vanderlyn of New York, secretary of
the New York farmers' holiday as
sociation, making minority reports
from the committee meeting. Iverson
opposed the adoption of any code.
Yankton, S. D. District No. 2 of
the South Dakota farmers' union was
on record as approving the national
farm holiady association movement,
but opposing "wanton destruction'
in connection with crop and livestock
reduction programs, and favoring
some plan where surpluses might be
used to feed the needy. State Jour
nal.
L C. C. ASKS BIGGER CUT
Washington. A general down
ward revision of rates on freight
hauled partly by railroad and partly
by water across the great lakes was
recommended to the interstate com
merce commission by two of its exam
iners. W. J. Koebel and A. S. Park
er advocated that the commission re
ject a revision of a large group of
rates proposed by the railroads them
selves and substitute an even lower
series, especially to cities in the
northwest and between those cities
and the east.
The rates proposed by the rail
roads to be charged to Lacrosse, Wis.,
Keokuk, la., Mason City, la.; and a
number of Nebraska, Wyoming and
Kansas points and Denver, are left at
the same figure fixed in the railroad
proposal.
NORTH DAKOTA LEANS WET
Fargo, N. D. A bill to permit sale
of 3.2 percent beer in North Dakota,
was favored by about 2 to 1 in early
returns. Returns from seventysix
of the 2,240 precincts was 5,241 In
favor of beer and 2,576 against.
Most of the figures were from cities.
North Dakota has been dry since
1889.
A proposal to allow Sunday mo
tion picture shows was leading by
a scant margin, seventy-five precincts
showing 3,583 in favor ,and 3,570
against. Another measure to impose
a 2 per cent sales tax was far behind.
Eighty-one precincts gave 7,308
against the 1,304 in favor.

Terrors of
Texas Hurricane
are Described
Don F. York Writes of Storm in,
Which Many Former Residents
Here Were Involved.
So many of our friends have been
so kind to inquire about the storm
which all but wiped out the rich
valley of the lowtr Rio Grande in
Texas and have also inquired about
the wtlfare of our loved ones who
were in the worst area of the de
structive wind and water, that we
are asking the Journal to print the
following partial account of it as de
picted by our son, Don Freese. Don
C. York.
What Is left of Harlingen,
September 10, 1933,
Dear folks:
Well I am still alive and able to
write, but what I mean I have to
pinch myself to make certain, I have
been driving a relief car for the Red
Cross down here, have had but about
four hours sleep since Sunday night
before the storm. Here is an outline
of what has taken place so far.
Labor day morning I went to La
Sara with Bro. Boon (Methodist min
ister), Mr. Barnes, Hugh Ramsey and
Issiah, negro janitor at the church,
to move a house. No more than got
there than a messenger arrived from
Raymondsville (16 miles north of
Harlingen) that the radio station at
Harlingen had sent Boone word to
come back at once as hurricane was
coming. We came back (and how
that preacher drove) got here about
10:30 a. m. Randall and I worked
on the Ford about an hour, started
to rain about 11:30 a. m. Wind start
ed to blow about 12:30. Was blow
ing about a 40 mile gale, by 6 p. m.
it was up to about 60 mile.
Mrs. Swift and sons came in at
auntie's (Mrs. L. V. Copenhaver)
about 1:30 p. m. and stayed thru
storm. At 11:30 p. m. the house next
door had its front porch blown off,
and the front windows of our house
were blowing out also. At this time
the wind was making about 90 miles
per hour. About 1:30 Tuesday morn
ing the house next door was com
pletely demolished. We stayed all
thru the night expecting to hear our
roof go off, as it was rising and fall
ing with a bump, bump, bump on the
northeast corner. About 10:00 a. m.
Tuesday the wind let up some. Mr.
Philbrook, Russell and Randall went
to town. The storm was apparently
over. I stayed in as I had been
"kinda" sickish with a cold. About
11:00 a. m. the wind started again,
and Philbrook came back with the
report that another storm harder
than the first was about to break
from the southwest. The other one
started from the northwest, changed
to northeast and then east. We de
cided that Philbrook and I should go.
to the Methodist church, one and a
half block east and see if it was still
safe as the new storm was reported
to be so much worse than the first.
We went up and decided to bring
the folks up there. We started from
here all in a line, me first, Chloe,
Mable Lee, Russell carrying the baby,
Mrs. Swift and two boys, aunty, Mar
ion and Philbrook bringing up the
rear. We were all wading in water
up to and above our knees and per
haps you think it was an easy Job
to make that trip in all that water
with a 100 mile an hour wind surg
ing around us. Well it was every
thing but pleasant.
We stayed in the church all Tues
day night and until Wednesday about
noon, that is our headquarters were
there. Russell and I drove a relief
car apiece for the relief work Tues
day afternoon after the storm was
over, that was at 3 p. m.
Randall was out in all of the sec
ond storm doing police duty on Main
street. The wind velocity meter here
broke doing 120 miles an hour dur
ing the second storm, so no one really
knows how hard it blew after that.
I really saw things while driving
for the Red Cross, things I didn't
believe possible. Rio Hondo, 9 miles
northeast of Harlingen had the most
dead. I wrote the last letter from
there while sitting on a desk in the
lobby of the Arroy City State bank
(this letter was written on the backs
of deposit slips) which had been
turned into a Red Cross emergency
hospital. There were fifty injured
people there at the time I was writ
ing. Rio Hondo was hit the worst,
several being killed outright and
scores injured. We had to bury a
couple, a young man 30 years old
and a 12 year old girl, without any
preparation whatsoever. Just sewed
them up in sheets and dumped them
into a hole. It was ghastly.
Mr. Gresham lost his house and
everything. he had. Geo. Hardleman
lost his place of business. Houses
are down all over town. I don't think
there is a house in town that escaped
some damage. I would estimate that
there are less than 100 homes in
town without some damage to the
roofs. Its terrible. The owner of the
largest department store in Harlin
gen, Mr. Brumley, estimates his loss
on stock at $60,000. He had a 190,
000 stock. He lost more heavily than
any of the other stores here. The
lobby of the Palm Hotel was blown
in, as well as the office of the Cen
tral Power and Light Co. The Mad
ison Hotel is condemned, but they
are working on it.
We got your last letter today (Mon
day) and I think .my start of last
night will give you a good idea of
things. As to what we thought it's
hard telling, mother. I felt much the
same thru it all as 1 did thru that
long, long, minute I lived the night
the school bus turned over, just be
fore I went out. I don't know if I was
ready to go or not. I kept praying
I had a chance, that the Lord in His
goodness and mercy could see His way
clear to let us live thru it all. I felt
almost certain though, that if the
roof blew off we would never see an
other sunrise, and mother, I've never
watched and waited so long and anx
iously for anything in my life as I
did for THAT sunrise. I don't know
why unless I was afraid to die in
the dark. Mabls Leo went all to
pieces a couple of times. Randall
told us he was going to take his
pants off and go to bed. and no foolin,
he did it. He slept until the neigh
bors roof came off and fell into the
back yard, then here he came. Rus
sell and I had our hands full keep
ing the rest of them still. All of the
roofing is off of Mrs. Copenhr.ver's
house in the country, and Mable Lee
and Russell's house lost a lot. I don't
know why, but all three homes were
comparatively little damaged.
Mable Lee lost the rest of her chick
ens and she and aunty lost all of
their citrus crop, in fact it was al
most a total loss all over the valley.
Dad, I talked to Mr. Brooks, the C. of
C. secretary and he seems to think
that with a conservative estimate of
2,300 commercial buildings and
homes completely destroyed and 3,500
building damaged, there is going to
be some work or a while, if they can
get the insurance damages settled
adequately, but the trouble is the
town is simply jammed with construc
tion men, from all over the country,
mostly roofers. Randall and I were
looking over the things we have
stored down here and find some of
the household articles are pretty
badly damaged, but considering the
big fact that we all were spared with
out a scratch after going thru what
we did we have very much to be
thankful for. I've got to get to bed
now. I'll start another letter tomor
row. Adios,
DON F. YORK.
Need Shown for
Quick Aid to Corn
Belt Farmers
Secretary Wallace and His Advisers
Hold Conferences in Chicago;
Problems Difficult. 1
Chicago, 111., Sept. 20. Agricul
tural experts moved today to see
what help can be given the hard
pressed farmers of the corn belt.
Headed by Secretary of Agricul
ture Wallace, the Washington relief
officials conferred with a half-dozen
farm organization leaders, members
of the corn-hog committee which has
help devise the steps taken to date.
With the secretary were Jerome
Frank, legal adviser for the recovery
administration, and Dr. A. G. Black,
corn-hog administrator.
The first Job before the group,
said Earl V. Smith, president of the
Illinois Agricultural association, was
to sort dozens of proposals put be

may recommend a permanent relier
program, relying on a processing tax
to pay for a cutin corn production,
an allotment scheme of something
else entirely.
Before the session, Secretary Wal
lace said in a speech to grain men
that the midwest's problems were
more difficult than those of the wheat
belt.
The government's pig slaughter
ing program, he said, would un
doubtedly cut the market for corn
and he predicted trouble in the corn
market if the hog crop is held down
during years of large corn yield.
Proposal Somewhat Unfair.
The present proposal to finance
a reduction in corn acreage with
money obtained by a tax on packing
house operations is somewhat un
fair, he said, because it puts the bur
den entirely on pork consumers, al
though only about half the midwest's
corn goes as feed for hogs.
Among proposals before the com
mittee was one already given the sup
port of some producers groups in
the region, calling for closing the
market to farmers who fail to co
operate. Designed by W. R. Ronald. Mitch
ell, S. D., farm leader, the plan would
apply a processing tax and exempt
co-operating farmers, thus attempt
ing to control production by estab
lishing a penalty for failure to con
form. :feied chicken, suppeb.
