E P Creekmore, head of the American Cotton Cooperative Association, told a Senate committee that cooperatives act as direct world-market sellers and provide year round field agents, basis sheets, and lower warehouse rates. He said farm-loan policy kept the market stable and rejected suggestions the Farm Board controls coop management. He noted cooperative members hold about ten million dollars tied to last season’s pools and defended member-friendly financing terms.
