The Commission is composed ex-clusively of laymen, many of them outstanding in business. laDor. law and publishing. Its twenty-eigh- t initial members are convinced that because of the problems of the times, public schools have never before been so Important to the nation. The Commission is the first or-ganization of its kind established in this century to devote itself to the public schools. It plans to act as a clearing house of information on public school problems for local groups, and to cite outstanding ex-amples of community action for the improvement ot public schools. "Professional educators, many conscientious school boards, the Parent-Teache- r Associations, and other groups are working hard for better public schools," Roy E. Lar-sen. president of Time & Life and chairman of the group, said. "But the problems of public education' are so broad that they concern, all of us. and It is time for all of us to understand and do something about them." Headquarters of the Commission will be at 2 West 45th Street, New York City. When the group is it will have sixty mem-bers.

Treasury Department Wheat Farmers Have A Week The present estimate of supply, utilization, and production of wh-eat indicate that under the Agric-ulture Act of 1948, marketing quot as may be proclaimed for the 1950 wheat crop Alma J. Christen-se- n, Chairman of the Millard coun-ty Agricultural Conservation Assn. Committee announced today. Should it develop that market-ing quotas are not required, Mr. Christenseri stated that it still would be probable that allotments would be needed in connection with the price support program. Under present procedure, allot-ments will be established for all farms on which wheafwas seeded for harvest in any one or more of the years 1947, 1948, or 1949, and such farms will be called old wheat farms. All other farms will be considered as new wheat farms, and allotments will not be estab-lished for them unless specifically requested in writing by the produc ers. There is only 3 of the county wheat acreage allotment that can be released to new wheat farms, for farmers not raising wheat in any of the years 1947, 1948 and 19 49 so this being the case very little allotment can be granted to these farms. Notice is hereby given to all farmers in Millard county who ex-pect to plant wheat in 1950 on farms on which wheat was not se-eded for harvest in any one or more of the years 1947, 1948 or 1949, that they have until July 1, 1949, to request an allotment. All requests for alotments on new wheat farms must be filed in writ-ing with the Millard County ACA Committee by this date, Mr. Christ ensen said. There is just a week left for farmers raising wheat to report their acreage of wheat allotment for 1950. If marketing quotas are voted for on the 1950 crop it would be definitely to the farm-ers advantage to have his allot-ment based on the wheat he has been raising for the past four year.s The county AAA committee is attempting to contact every far-mer to get the history of wheat raised on the farm in the last 4 years, but we do not know all of the farmers who have raised wh-eat and may miss some. It is there fore, the farmers responsibility to see that this report is made with-in the next few days. If you have not already signed up and report-ed this wheat acreage data, please do so immediately. In order to assist the farmers in making .this report we have AAA Supervisors contacting each of the farmers in each of the communit-ies and hope that the farmers will take the few minutes time to go over each of the their farms and write down the acreage of wheat they have seeded on each of them from 1945 to 1948 together with the legal description of each farm and furnish it to the AAA Super-visor collecting this data.
