Georgia Warehouses Vastly Surpass Earlier Estimates
A weeklong inquiry by W G Cooper of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce finds Georgia towns can store far more cotton than thought. Data from 230 of 400 banking towns show capacity to handle about 1 419 108 bales with totals rising when all towns are included. Advances on cotton average 44 60 per bale, with merchants funding farmers while notes and warehouse receipts back debts. A high home production of corn and forage, 69 percent on average, reduces pressure to sell quickly. Findings were presented to the chamber committee led by Robert F Maddox, suggesting better conditions than expected.
