The theme of the 1950 program, "Re dedicated to Community Service," was I chosen to encourage publishers and editors to examine their records of pub- 'lie service to their communities in the past and to rededicate themselves to further efforts in behalf of worthwhile greatest service.

3. Secretary of Agriculture Brannan announced today that farmers will be free to grow all the cotton they want to next year. Rigid government planting; and mar-'keting restrictions in effect this year will be withdrawn for the 1951 crop. Prospects of a short supply of some grades of cotton led the secretary to free the crop from government controls. This year's production was far short of expectations, due largely to the fact that farmers did not plant all the land they could under acreage allotments and marketing quotas.

The short supply situation has contributed to a cotton price advance of about a third in the past 12 months. Under the law, price supports must range between 80 and 90 per cent of parity, which is a level calculated to be equally fair to the producer and the purchaser. The nation needs at least 16,000,000 bales next year. Such a crop would compare with this year's unusually small one of 9,637,000 bales. Commenting on the possibility of over production, the secretary said it was in the "public interest" to have too much rather than too little.

Several weeks ago, Brannan announced a 1950 wheat program calling for a larger crop next year to assure the country of ample supplies in connection with the national defense program. Today's action announcing that there will be no acreage allotments or marketing quotas next year applies to both plans and staple cottons. Brannan said acreages planted by farmers' base acreage in establishing any future acreage allotments. Brannan said the fact that neither marketing quotas nor acreage allotments will be in effectfor next year's crop will help insure production of at least the 16,000,000 bales needed to take care of increased domestic and export demand and to avoid depleting reserves. The secretary's statement took a slap at cottonacreage allotments under present legislation would not be satisfactory or realistic "It would be necessary" he said, "to allot many acres to farmers who would 1 not plant them.

This is shown by the fact that only 19,000,000 acres of cotton were in cultivation last July 1, out of a total of 21,600,000 acres which were allotted to farms in 1950." "As in the case of -wheat and other grains, it is in the public interest to have a little more cotton than we need rather than to run the risk of shortage. Knowing now that there will be no quotas or allotments next year, and that large production is needed, farmers will have plenty of time to complete their plans for 1951 plantings. "They will also have the opportunity to save enough good, dry cotton planting seed to meet their production needs." CARD OF THANKS Words fail to bear the message of. appreciation I so deeply and sincerely, feel for the many gestures of love ana friendship shown me by the members of New Light Baptist Church and other friends on the occasion of my retirement as pastor of this church after twenty-three years service. The many kind word3 of appreciation of my humble efforts, the manifestations of the fruits of my spiritual labors, and all else that good people could do, filled my heart to overflowing.

5. Policy governing allowance of credit to students called into military service was announced today by H. Lee Prather, acting president of Northwestern State College. This policy is in accordance with regulations adopted by Northwestern during World War II, according to Prather. If the Federal Government calls a regularly enrolled student into military service before mid-semester, the student is given no credit for work done during that semester.

He may, however, return at the same point (or earlier) of any later semester and resume his work in courses which he was passing at the time of being drafted. If a regularly enrolled student is called into military service at mid-semester" or later, he is given credit in all courses which he was passing at the time of being drafted. The grade assigned in each, course is the one submitted by the instructor at mid-semester or later. Before any student can benefit from this regulation, he must submit to the Registrar's office proof that he was drafted into military service. The special regulations outlined above do not apply to any student who enters military service voluntarily.
