New Grading of Cotton Criticized by McArthur
Marthur N. J. McArthur, former Interstate Cotton College president and expert sampler, writes Secretary Wilson to oppose a proposed standard reducing about thirty grade points to nine. He warns it would injure growers by widening grade gaps, eliminating intermediate grades, and shifting market names upward. He argues the plan could raise prices for foreign buyers, reduce American exports, and urges a national, bipartisan reestablishment of guides with input from growers and spinners.
