Five Southern Senators were ready teday to join Senator Walter F. George of Georgia, in canvassing the cotton situation with the Federal Farm Board, whose members still have an ‘“open mind” with respect to proposed remedies following the rejection of its own radical plan for cotton planters to plow under every third row of their present crop. ! The conference will be held at 3 o'clock in the office of Carl Williams, | cotton member of the Farm Board. ]The only other members of the board now in Washington are Charles F. Wil- son and S. H. Thompson. Senators Black and Bankhead of Ala- bama, Harris of Georgia, Fletcher of PFlorida and Byrnes of South Carolina have notified Senator George they would attend the ccnference, out of which hopes are based that Some feasible plan for the disposal of this year's surplus cotton and the boosting of prices for the Southern farmers would emerge. Smith Will Try te Attend. Senatcr Smith of South Carolina, a cotton planter, telegraphed he would ' try to be with the conferees. Senator Gecrge previously had for- mally submitted his pian to meet the cotton crisis in a communication to the Farm Board. Under this pian the Farm | Board would purchase more cotton from ! farmers at 12 cents a pound, payable 6 cents in cash at the time of purchase and the remainder by certificate, re- | deemable in the Fall of 1932. Each | farmer selling to the bcard under these terms would agree to plant no cotton in 1932 Roughly estimated, it would cost the Farm Board about $180,000,000 to buy 6,000,000 bales, which is less than one- half of this year's bumper grop. Car- rying out of this plan would accomplish the desirable end of reducing at least the acreage of the 1932 crop. The plan further provides.that the board would hold its present stocks of stabilization cotton, 1,300,000 bales, until the plant- ing season of 1933. About that time, it was believed, sales of the remainder of the 1932 crop would be about com- pleted. Not Pledged to George Plan. The conferees are not pledged to Senator George's plan. It is merely one of a dozen or more suggestions that have been put forward by public men in the South as a means of remedying a situation that threatens continuously to_grow worse. In advance of the conference no mem- . |ber of the Farm Board would discuss otton. 4 canvass the whole would take in not only the problems arising from this year's record crop, but the disposition of stabilization cotton held by the board. e S SENTENCE SOLDIERS ON BEATING CHARGE Court-Martial for Two Men Orders Confinement for Attack at Hospital.

Thirty-four construction companies from all sections of the Bast today sought the contract for erecting the Federal warchouse that will be built be- iween C and D, Eighth and Ninth streets southwest, when bids were ned by Lieut. Col. U. 8. Grant, 3d, director of public buildings and public parks. Several Days Needed. Officials made it clear that a digest of the bids, which contain numerous alter- native proposals, will be necessary be- fore a low bidder can be determined, but the indicated low bidders are the H. R. Blagg Co. of Dayton, Ohio, which offered to construct the fireproof struc- ture for $907,895 as the main bid, and the B-W Construction Co. of Chicago, which bid $935,900. The Loudoun-Rust Co. of 1406 G street was the indicated high bidder, with an offer of $1,120,000. A number of days will elapse before Col. Grant awards the contract, officials said, as his engineers will carefully study the alternative proposals and the different types offered. ‘The Federal warehouse will be con- structed of concrete and steél and will be seven stories in height, with a base- ment, which will provide facilities for trucks. Railroad trackage equipment will enable Uncle Sam to unload car- Joad lots in the building, which will be shared by the Federal and District | governments.
