Farm cotton prices not driving retail costs say AAA official
Floyd of the AAA argues farm prices for cotton, though rising, do not raise retail cotton costs. He cites parity pricing, loans at 85 percent, and a 1941 cotton price of 1343 cents per pound. He notes higher mill output in 1941 and consumer shirt costs far below farm earnings, asserting farm cotton pricing isn’t inflating retail prices.
