Fleming, Sr, Chairman of the Pennsyl vania Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee Whether or not quotas are ap proved, • acreage allotments will remain in effect for the crop, the chairman declared. The two points at issue are (1) whether marketing quotas shall be in effect, with penalties on “excess” wheat from farms (with more than 15 acres of wheat harvested as gram) not in compliance with the acreage allotment, and (2) the level of price support available to those who comply with their farm acreage allotments. If quotas are approved by at lea'st two-thirds of those who vote in the referendum, the quotas and penalties for excess production will be in effect, and price support on the crop will be available at a level between 75 and 90 percent of parity to those who comply with the farm wheat allotment. If more than one-third of the voters disapprove the quotas, there will be no marketing quo tas and no penalties for excess production, and the available price support will drop to 50 percent of parity, as provided by law Whether or not quotas are in effect, acreage allotments will remain in effect for the 1957 wheat crop. t«» Chairman Fleming explained that wheat marketing quotas and acreage allotments operate only in commercial wheat States, including Pennsylvania. Since the quotas affect only those growers in the commercial area who wall have more than 15 acres of wheat for harvest as grain on a farm in 1957, these growers are the only ones eligi ble to vote m the referendum.
