Cotton farmers agree on thirty cents price for cotton
In New Orleans on October 2, cotton growers across ten southern states agreed to a price of 30 cents per pound for their crop as a justified level given current manufactured cotton prices. The amendment to oppose price regulation passed unanimously after debate, with efforts to push to 35 or 40 cents failing. Delegates formed a seven member Washington committee to consult Hoover on cottonseed policy, and called for standardized bale sizes of 54 by 27 inches. Senators Ransdell and Parker urged growers to hold and store cotton if needed, borrowing money to wait for better prices.

The move, to be pressed when Congress reconvenes, seeks to prevent rank embarrassment among allied leaders.
