Bankhead cotton escalator amendment sparks Senate clash
Washington reports from the Senate Banking Committee reveal a dispute over the Bankhead amendment to the Price Control Act. The majority says it would raise raw cotton parity prices and lower consumer costs, while the minority warns of inflationary risk and windfall gains for cotton mills.
