Cotton Price Rally Defines 15 Cent Policy for 12 Million Bales

In Montgomery on September 13 a convention of about 500 farmers and 500 bankers and officials from southern states declared support for cotton at 15 cents a pound.

Speakers included Senator Smith of South Carolina and Representative Heflin of Alabama. A foreign syndicate offered up to $7,000,000 to finance the plan at 7 percent interest, with cotton as collateral, pending final committee work.
