Farmers rally for 16 cent cotton price in Texas drive
A fragmented 19th century chronicle cites farmers urged by Texas Southern Gatton association leaders R R Claridge and CG Metcalfe to resist price cuts. It asserts a 16 cent cotton price ensures prosperity for Texas, which grows a large share of US cotton, and warns against letting buyers set the price. It references Roosevelts, weather, and wartime talk in a broad, opinionated public notice style.
