Plan for Inflation Growers' Meet Demands Cotton Price Hikes
Farmers at a general meeting urged suspending sales of cotton and cotton seed until prices hit 15 cents a pound and $25 a ton. They drafted a letter to President Roosevelt and met with George N Peek at the Agriculture Department to discuss price proposals including a 20 cent cotton price. The group urged Congress and administration action with a plan to ease farm liens by $400 million within six months.
