Cotton bagging trust denounced by Senate

Washington July 26 special Severe condemnation of the cotton bagging trust for raising prices and advancing the costs of bagging and tying for baling cotton was voiced in the Senate last week.

He cited a $1,000,000 to $1,409,000 range in alleged monopoly profits. Senator Bacon urged antitrust action and Department of Justice involvement, warning that a big bagging cartel could harm cotton growers who labor year round. The Senate debated tariff changes and the need for inquiry into price elevations and anti competitive practices.
