Payments, by States, under the 1961 wool program through Aug. 31, 1962 Mr. WHITTEN. I believe it would be well for the record to show the pertinent provisions of law having to do with the production of wool, and the average payment as well as a listing of some reasonable percentage of the larger payments that may have been made to individuals and corporations.

NOTE-Payments to the same producer by more than one county office have not been combined. Payments are made on wool sold during the marketing year and consequently they may reflect more or less than 1 year's clip depending upon whether the grower held over all or part of his clip from 1 year to another.
