New England Governors Back One Price for Cotton
The New England governors adopted a one price cotton resolution urging Congress to guarantee mills pay the same price for American cotton as is charged for export to foreign mills. Governor Reed sent a telegram to Senators Smith and Muskie supporting the Talmadge Amendment and the House already advanced similar legislation. The meeting notes textiles and apparels make up 17 percent of regional manufacturing with 190 000 workers affected.
