Crawford Discusses
Wheat Marketing
Qfifbta Cards
If you have a wheat marketing
card, you are free to dispose of your
wheat in any way you wish, J«. H.
Crawford, secretary of the Young
County AAA Committee, pointed out
this week.
Under AAA regulations, which
went into effect with the approval
by wheat growers of marketing quo-
tas in the referendum May 31, wheat
producers cannot obtain a marketing
card until they have satisfied any
claims the AAA might have against
their wheat for production on excess
acres, the AAA secretary said.
“Since this true, then it naturally
follows tha^ a producer holding a
card on Ms wheat can sell it, store
it,” he continued. “Tliis wheat is ab-
solutely clear as far as the AAA la
concerned and is eligible to move in
the regular channels of trade."
Producers who do not clearly un-
derstand the operations of wheat
should ask for “my.

General Page added; however, that

necessary, any volunteer assistance
in handling their registration prob-

General Page emphasised that “all
lacal boards are authorised to make
their own arrangeaaents for registra-
tion, and permission or approval from
State Headquarters in this instance
will not be necessary.” Many of the
counties having more than one local
board will arrange for Joint regis-
tration at some central point, he
said. Other counties having more
tfyart one local board, but each board
having a well-defined geographical
area within the county, will provide
separate registration places.
New forms sre being sent to all
local boards since slight changes
have been made in the procedure since
the first registration last fall.
General Page indicated that there
would be approximately 65,000 men
registered in Texas on July 1. Reg-

Physicians Ask
That All Liquor
Be Labeled Poison
CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 9.—A
proposal to have all liquor labeled
“poison” has been made by three
Boston physicians to the American
Medical Association.
Declaring that they were not pro-
hibitionists, hut “regard prohibition
as a failure,” Dr. Merrill Moore, Dr.
Leo Alexander and Dr. Abraham
Myerson said they, believed all who
imbibe any amount of alcohol should
he warned by the label on the battle
that what th?y are drinking is dan-
gerous, if taken in too large amounts'
and at too frequent intervals.
“Arsenic, carbolic acid and other
poisons are labeled under the regu-
lations of the Federal Food and Drag
Administration,” Dr. Moore said, “and
aloohdl should be designated in the
sarnie way. During prohibition the
bartenders of speakeasies often justi-
fiably put ‘poWbn’ labels On their
possibly with good effect on
their customers.
“There is no question but that the
most important and wide-used habit-
fdrmipg drug of Western civilization
and certainly of America ia alcohol,”
he continued. The sum total of deaths
and mental wreckage from the use
of narcotics is far greater than from
any other toxic substance and “if
the federal food, drug and cos-
metic act is designed to prevent and
to' protect the American public and
its health from the menace of drug
intoxication and addition, then it
should apply to alcohol instead of
neglecting it altogether”
He reported that he had received
-frowriy wap? art for the M
many ot the lnrgp HqGof companies.
" TMb Boston physHtAhs suggested
that every bottle of liquor carry
a label leading: "Use moderately
and not on successive day*. Eat well
while drinking and, if necessary, sup-
iemont food by vitamin tablets,
