Eliminating the boll weevil movement in North Carolina
High Point hosts American Cotton Association field representative W Thompson discussing plans to organize a movement to combat the boll weevil. Thousands of dollars are being spent on poison and demonstration cotton to aid farmers, with eight to ten acre plots set aside for treated crops. Thompson warns that gambling in cotton markets threatens the industry and urges action to protect workers and manufacturers. He also contrasts U S and English attention to commodity speculation with the need to safeguard cotton’s central role in the economy.
