Senator Bilbo Denounces Cotton Export Subsidy Plan
Senator Bilbo of Mississippi denounces the Hawkshead export subsidy plan proposed in the Senate to aid cotton. He argues it risks an international trade war, harms domestic workers, and shifts price cures onto American farmers while empowering Secretary Wallace to override limits. He urges parity payments instead and warns of vast costs and retaliation from cotton producers abroad.
