Debate Over Egyptian Cotton and Sea Island Trade

A lengthy discussion in the United States Senate examines the impact of a proposed 20 percent tariff on raw cotton. The debate centers on whether Egyptian, Peruvian, and other foreign cotton imports have harmed or failed to affect U.S. sea island cotton prices and spinners' demand, with data on import volumes, crop yields, and comparative quality between Egyptian and American long staple cotton.

A commentator argues against a tariff on cotton, saying it would injure cotton growers and raise costs for Northern manufacturers.
