All wheat growers who are subject to quotas are eligible to vote in the referendum. Only those farmers who have more than 15 acres planted to wheat for 1951 will be subject to marketing quotas. Polls Open at 8 a. m. Farmers will be notified in writing of the polling places in each county and they are also listed below. Polls will open at 8 a. m. and close at 7 p. m. At issue Is the level at which the government will support the crop. price for the 1951 wheat Legislation directs support at 90 percent of parity if quotas are approved. However if farmers disapprove marketing quotas, the support drops according to law to 50 percent of parity to those farmers who comply with their acreage allotments. Secretary Had No Choice J. Vem Hopkins, chairman of the Production and Marketing administration, pointed out Jhat the secretary had little choice in the matter of issuing the wheat quota proclamation. Legislation directs that such a proclamation be made whenever a total supply of wheat exceeds the normal supply by more than 20 percent. The normal supply is the estimated domestic consumption, plus exports, plus 15 percent reserve. The supply of wheat this year is now estimated at about 1,760 million bushels which is 370 million more than the quantity at which a national marketing quota proclamation is mandatory. Average Allotments allotments Wheat acreage will be in effect for the 1954 crop of wheat, Mr. Hopkin explained. The allotments are not affected by the outcome of the quota referendum.
