Cotton Plan Delayed by Southern Farm Leaders
Col Bert M Thompson of New York says Southern farmers delay a $50,000 plan to finance the cotton crop. He claims the scheme would help the South by marketing the crop, while noting pride in not pressuring growers. He notes Wall Street Journal commentary on price trends and urges education to diversify farming to keep children in school.
