Claridge Outlines Cotton Marketing Views at Atlanta Meeting
Mr. R. R. Claridge, president of the Texas Division of the Southern Cotton Association, favors evolutive changes in cotton marketing over revolution. He says futures gamblers are dwindling, spot dealers remain essential, and growers should use bank loans or sell to meet obligations to avoid harming merchants, bankers, or the market overall. He cites Brazos County Farmers Union backing partial marketing to meet obligations.
