ee More Days in Washington

: After the refusal of the O. P. A. on Wednesday, July,
h to grant any relief to the tobacco growers, the dele-.
a ution from the five tobacco states in Washington took

mmediate action to make a. final, supreme effort.

We immediately. contacted the Governors and as

iy of the Senators as we could om such short. notice.
arranged to have another meeting on Saturday, July,

29th, when as many Governors and Senators as we could

gobly get to Washington, would be present.

- The delegation believed that, if the eovernment othe.
s doubted the testimony of Commissioners of Agricul-

, Congressmen, farm organization leaders and farmers
had presented the case on Monday, surely they would

the OPA and CCC,





EDITORIALBy Gon Linder

On Monday, July 24, a ddecaion of Contuiesioe as of

i



Semele Farm Organization leaders and farmers rep=_

esenting five bright flue-cured tobacco states, appeared
bebo representatives of the Office of Price. Administra-_
tion and Commodity Credit Corporation in Washington.

This meeting had been arranged as an outgrowth oh.
the tobacco meeting in Columbia, South Carolina on Sat-

= urday, July 15.

The specific purpose of this hearing was to ask ae
OPA to cancel its order rolling back prices on Georgia andl
Florida tobacco 2e a pound from last year. |

lionorable John Gibson, Congressman from. the~ seh

District, and a member of the Special Tobacco Committee

of Congress, was on hand. Mr. Gibson very ably led the

fight from. the floor to obtain relief for tobacco growers

from the unfair and Ta peHine put upon them by the :
OPA this year. : xe

Mr. Gibson is very active in all matters relating to
agriculture and is doing henor to himself and his District
in the record he is making j in the House of Representatives.

.. Mr. H. L. Wingate; President of the Georgia Farm

Bureau, as Chairman of the Committee epee at. Co-
lumbia, presided at the hearing.

Mr. Wingate received the highest commendalin frais

those present for the very able manner in which he pre-

sided and for the able presentation of the farmers case to

ap

TOBACCO HOLIDAY ee

On Friday, July 21, Governor Ellis Arnall issued eo
proclamation declaring a tobacco: holiday for the week of

July 24 to July 29. ae

The action of Uarbkcor Arnall was ratified by the
Governors of Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina and

Virginia, each of whom issued proclamations i in support of
the tobacco holiday.

In accordance with these proclamations, when we aps
peared in Washington on Monday, July 24, the tobaceo
warehouses were closed. :

Our delegation in Washington therefore presented its

Case, beginning with a resolution signed by all members

of the delegation in Washington.
On account of its length this resolution is reproduced

OPA Repudiates Pariy
Pledge To Farmers
=o (Continued from Page One)
- gn full elsewhere in this edition of the Market
Bulletin. :
--- | would like however, at this point to call
: your attention to Section 3 of the resolution
which reads as follows
Tt ig but little short of an insult to the
intelligence of the farmers of this Nation to,
in the face of the pledge in the party platform
at Ohicago last week, keep prices on farm
products at a level which would insure the
farmer an equal hourly wage with the indus-
~ rial worker and then, before the ink got dry
on this promise, announce a ceiling price on a
very important product of the farmer at a level
that would not give him 50 per cent of the
hourly wage of the average industrial worker,
which is one dollar and three mills per hour.
Unless the pledge is recognized in fixing prices
on tobacco as well as all other farm products,
the farmers will have to know that, this pledge
-was made in a spirit of gross insincerity.
Our delegates were presented to Mr. J. B.
Hutson, President of Commodity Credit Corpo-
~ yation, Mr. E. F. Ragland, Chief of the Tobacco
Section of OPA, and Mr. Jim Brownlee, also of
OPA.
After offering as evidence the petition sign-
ed by all members of the delegation we present-
ed facts showing that a year ago the OPA con-
sidered 41 per pound a fair ceiling price on
Georgia and Florida urttied tobacco.
We showed that on account of bad weather
conditions existing through the tobacco belt this
_ year a great deal more labor had been required
than is normally required. :
We showed that a large percentage of farm-
ers had to reset tobacco-from one to three. times.
We showed the increased cost of producing
this years crop of tobaceo by reason of increased
prices of supplies of all kinds which the farmers
must buy. :
We showed that according to the report of
the Bureau of Agricultural Economics of the
United States. Department of Agriculture farm
wages throughout the nation have increased 20
per cent since last year.
We showed that in the bright flue-cured
tobacco belt the cost of labor has inereased from
50 to-100 per cent since last year.
We showed that the production, harvesting
and euring of this years crop of tobacco has cost
more money than any tobacco crop in history.
We showed from official figures that the net
profits of the four big cigarette manufacturing
companies have increased by leaps and bounds.
The net income of these cigarette manufacturers

Wednesday, August. ,





manufacturers have been working on the same
price level that they are now working.

We showed that the farmer who produced
cigarette tobacco is only receiving 2 1-4c for the
tobacco in a package of cigarettes for which a
consumer pays 16 to 20e per package.

We showed that in September, 1943, after
last years Georgia and Florida tobacco crops
were sold, the OPA granted an increase in price
to the manufacturers of all economy brands of
cigarettes amounting to .78 of a eent on each
package of cigarettes.

THE CHICAGO PLEDGE TO FARMERS
ONLY APPLIES IN DOUBTFUL STATES

We showed that according to the Govern-
ments own statistics in past years it has cost
more to produce bright flue-cured tobacco than
it cost to produce Burley tobacco. _

We showed that during past years the bright
flue-cured tobaceo has brought more money on
the market than Burley tobacco. -

We showed that in 1943 OPA set a ceiling
price on Georgia and Florida untied tobacco of
41c. Later, the growers of tied tobacco in the
Carolinas and Virginia went to Washington and
asked a raise in the ceiling price of tied tobacco.
The OPA, with the cynicism of a Pharaoh order-
ing the children of Israel to make brick without
straw, simply rolled back the ceiling price on
Georgia and Florida tobacco which had already
been sold and forced the growers of Virginia and
the Carolinas to sell their tied tobacco under the
41 ceiling.

The OPAs explanation was that they in-
tended for the 41c to be the ceiling on both tied
and untied tobacco. The OPA elaimed that they
expected tobacco buyers to observe the differ-
entials between tied and untied tobacco.

Lets see if the OPA was sincere in this, or.
if it was just a question of what states in which
the tobacco was produced. They refused any re-
lief to the tied tobacco growers of the Carolinas
and Virginia on bright flue-cured tobacco, but
the OPA permitted Burley tobacco, most of
which is produced in Kentucky (a doubtful
state) to sell at 45c instead of 44.

- After refusing any relief to the bright flue-
cured belt of the solid South, the OPA put a top
ceNing price on Burley tobacco in Maryland {a
doubtful state) of 62e per pound.

When we confronted Mr. Ragland, Mr.
Brownlee and Mr. Hutson with these facts, they
claimed that they were going to roll prices back
this year in Kentucky and Maryland.

w=

tucky are not sold the same year they are_pro-
i 3 I 4 =

duced. This years crops of tobacco in Kentucky

and Maryland will begin to go to market in Jan-

uary (after the election).

DELAYED ANNOUNCEMENT OF
CEILING PRICES

The last Congress enacted a law which re-
quires the OPA to announce a ceiling price on
eee crops fifteen days before planting
ime.

While that law does not apply to this years
tobacco crop, still the OPA should have observed
the spirit of that law so far_as practical with
this years crops. Instead the OPA promised
to announee the price for tobacco on June Ist.
Actually it was determined about June 3rd, but
no announcement was made,

Then, the OPA promised to announce the
ceiling on July Ist, but they failed and refused
to do this, :

Then, the OPA promised to make the an-
nouncement on July 10, but they failed and re-
fused to do this,

Not until the afternoon of July 19, when the
Convention was in session in Chicago, did the
OPA announce any ceiling price on the tobacco

which would begin to move to market on July

__ ANNOUNCEMENT OF CEILINGS IN
KENTUCKY AND MARYLAND WILL ALSO
: BE DELAYED

It is perfectly clear that OPA will not cut

back the eeiling prices on Kentucky and Mary-





has increased almost 100 per cent since these |

LEGATES ASK FOR PROMPT ANSWER
When we had presented the case as above
ined, the delegation asked Mr. Ragland, Mr.
whiee and Mr. Hutson for an answer within













er in accordance with our request.
On Wednesday, July 26, forty-eight hours
Mr. Hutson, Mr. Ragland and a Mr. Sol
met with us.
To the amazement of every member of the
egation they brought what they said was a
yposal from Mr. Fred Vinson, National Eeo-
mic Stabilizer, which was unbelievable in its
ininity. :
When they had read this proposal the first
nment was by a farmer from North Carolina
follows: The mountain has labored and
uught forth a mouse, but the mouse is so little
t you eant see it.

Mr. Wingate, the Chairman of the delega-
ion, stated that, The proposal simply Xdded
Ol nfusion to dissatisfaction.

Unanimously, and with one accord, the dele-
ation rejected the proposal. I am reproducing
erewith the proposal as submitted to us for
information:

A casual reading of the above shows that it
- nothing except to make optional with the
ers whether or not they would pay a little
we for Georgia tobacco and take it out of Car-
ma tobacco, or whether they would give the
orgia farmer less for his tobacco and make it
n the Carolinas.
This is the story. These are the facts of our
eting in Washington with Government offi-
8 on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, July
th to 26th.

disappointed adverse action to tobacco
plea of southern states. Democratic plat-
- form adopted in Chicago pledged fair
treatment to agriculture. Under ceiling

gia farmers are being deprived of two

Stop We have voted to close markets until
a satisfactory price is established Stop
Ninety-five per cent of our tobacco sold

last year was under a ceiling two cents -

higher than present ceiling and the cost

We extend our appreciation and com-
mend you for the noble fight you have
made in behalf of the tobacco growers.
We consider the decision of Vinson and
OPA most unreasonable and unfair to the

producer. This bitter discouragement to,
producers will not be forgotten and is not

in order if farmers are to be urged to ex-
ert every effort to produce regardless of
other handicaps. We urge you to continue
and to exert every effort. We want to see

_ the markets open, but we cannot conceive

of any earthly reason why we should not
have the same ceiling price granted this
year that was considered a fair and just
ceiling price by OPA at the beginning of
last years market.

o him by the O. P. A. and the War Food Ad-
ninistration. ae

= This left the Governors, Senators and Con-
gressmen as far from being heard as they were
to begin with. 2

Mr. Vinson simply told them they would
ave to apply to the O. P. A. In other words,
Mr. Vinson could not be bothered with Gover-
nors and United States Senators. They would
ave to be content to present their case further
down the ladder. a |
- his treatment of Southern Governors and
Senators simply illustrates the contempt with
which the people of the South are treated.

_ This is a burning example of what happens
o a free people when they allow their govern-
ment to be taken out. of thef own hands. It
hows what will happen when the peoples busi-
ess is not in the hands of men who are elected
the people. oe

If these Bureaucrats were compelled to go
efore the people for election or before the Unit-
d States Senate to get their jobs, they would
never dare treat the Governors and Senators
rom sovereign states as they did on last Satur-

day.

- TO THE O. P. A. AGAIN WE GO
_ A conference was arranged Saturday after-
noon with the representatives of the O. P. O.
In the course of time and after waiting for
an hour, these gentlemen appeared and the Gov-
ernors and Senators proceeded again to present
our case,






















rgument, which was most able.

_ . Senator George was followed by Governor
oughton of North Carolina, Governor Olin
Johnson of South Carolina and Lieutenant-
vernor Tuck of Virginia. :

The O. P. A. had issued an order rolling
ack the price of Georgia and Florida tobaceo
per pound. The ceiling on Georgia and Flor-
ida tobacco had been eut from 416 in 1943 to 39
| 1944. The O. P. A. contended that this was
necessary in order to avoid raising the price

f cigarettes to the consumer.








fact that in October, 1942, Congress had enacted
a revenue measure which imposed an additional 25c
per thousand on cigarettes. This 25c per thousand for
cigarettes amounted to 14 of le on each package of
Cigarettes.

Since the retail dealers in cigarettes could not
raise the price 14c per package, the O. P. A. had per-
mitted them to raise the price le per package.

a This gave the retail desler in cigarettes an ad-
ditional profit of 14c per package. This 14c per pacix-
age amounts to 25c on one thousand cigarettes. One
thousand cigarettes are made from three pounds of
raw tobacco. This additional 14c per package was
the equivalent of 8c on each pound of the farmers
tobacco. Senator George pointed out that it would
be possible to raise the price of the farmers tobacco
_ 8c per pound without increasing the cost of cigarettes
to the consumer one cent.

Senator George also called to their attention the
xact that in September, 1943, after the Georgia and
Florida: crops of tobacco were sold, the O. P. A.
granted an increase in price to th anufacturers of
economy brands of cigarettes which amounted to .78
of a cent on each package of cigarettes. This raise
in the price of cigarettes is equivalent to 24c on 1



















_ Following Senator George, the Governors of
North and South Carolina and the Lieutenant-
Governor of Virginia each made strong argu-
ments. )

_ Each and every one of the speakers recited
the hardships of tobacco growers.
_ They called attention to the fact that a large
ercentage of tobaceo is produced by small farm-
. 3
_ They called attention to the fact that so
Many men have been drafted into the armed
forces that many growers are now forced to use
mred labor where the work has been done-here-
ofore by members of their own families.
_ They called attention to the inefficiency of
nuch of this inexperienced help.

even if they received the relief requested.
REQUEST DENIED
Mr. Brownlee of the O. P. A. then stated, in
effect, that nothing had been presented for them
to consider. Mr, Brownlee said that there was no
evidence before them that the O. P. A. price eeil-
ing of 39 was not an adequate price and that, so
far as he was concerned, no change would be
Senator George and the Governors then eall-
ed attention to the fact that ceiling prices were
not floor prices and that farm crops usually do
not bring the ceiling prices. g
As an illustration, last years tobacco crop
in Georgia sold for 38, although the ceiling was
41e.
The ceiling fixed on Georgia watermelons is
about $490.00 per car, but Georgia watermelons
have been selling for merely a fraction of the
ceiling price, a :
Attention was also ealled to the fact that,

at ridiculously low prices, the consumers in
Washington and elsewhere in the North are still
paying the same prices that they paid for Flor-
ida watermelons which netted the farmers
$600.00 to $1200.00 per ear.

I called the gentlemens attention to the fact
that the spread between producers and consum-
ers to day is the greatest that it has ever been
in the history of this country.

Under operation of the O. P. A., there has
been a greater increase in spread between pro-
ducer and consumer in the last. twenty-four
months than in any other comparable period.

I also called attention to the following. per-
tinent facts.

The last Congress enacted a law which re-
quires the O. P. A. to take into account increased
labor cost in fixing any ceiling on a farm com-
modity. a ae oS
I called attention to the fact that the Bureau
of Agricultural Economies of the United States
Department of Agriculture shows an increase in
farm labor in 1944 over 1943 of twenty per cent.

Attention was called to the fact that the

ing ,tobaeco is
total cost.
It is obvious that if labor increased twenty
per cent and labor involved is fifty per cent, then
the item of labor alone has increased the cost of
this years crop ten per cent above the 1943 crop.
I ealled attention to the fact that according
to the figures of the government itself, the to-
bacco growers were entitled to an increase of ten
per cent for their 1944 crop, above the price they
were allowed in 1943. I said, If the O. P. A. and
the other governmental agencies will not believe
their own figures, then they would not believe
anything that the farmers could bring before
them, even though it were brought by One who
rose from the dead.
0. P. A. AGAIN REFUSED RELIEF
In spite of all the evidence and the pleading
of the Governers of these Southeastern States,
in spite of the. eloquence and factual appeal of
Senator George, in spite of the offieial records
of the government itself, Mr. Brownlee again
very coolly stated that nothing had been brought
out in the hearing to which they would give con-
sideralign: =< :
I have been to Washington before; I have
been before boards and bureaus in Washington,
but in all my experience, I have never seen a
stronger case for the farmers presented. Neither
have I ever seen so cold-blooded, heartless and
ruthless determination to deny any relief what-
ever to those who toil in the fields.
In all my experience I have never seen Gov-
ernors and Senators of sovereign states treated.
with such little consideration.
Someone in the tobacco delegation remarked
that Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North}
Carolina and Virginia were in the bag; the
strings were tied and they were thrown over in
the corner. Maybe that is true.
The O. P. A. did not say this in words
factions speak louder than words,

Gentlemen: :

The tobacco growers were so disappoint--
ed with the price ceilings announced on
July 20th for the 1944 flue-cured tobacco
crop that they have declined to sell unti
such time as a satisfactory price program

_ has been adopted and have designated
committees from each of the five flue-
cured tobaeco- producing statesFlorida,
Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina and

oe:













































































































eration with the special committee ap-
jointed by the Congress to deal with this
problem here today.

eo THis, brief was prepared by, the joint.
committee and shows the following facts:
(1) OPA fixed a 41 cent per pound
weight average price on the 1943 tobacco
-erop sold loose leaf and at least 95 per cent
of the Georgia-Florida crop last year was

ure. It is true that, as a gesture to the other
_tobacco- growing belts where their crop is
tied for sale, the OPA, just a few days
prior to the closing of the Georgia-Florida
- markets and after the crop had been ale
~ most completely sold, announced a reduct-
jon in the weighted average price in loose-
eaf tobacco effective from that time on.
The only effect of this announcement was
to prevent growers in the other states from
marketing their tobacco loose-leaf as they
were then threatening to do. Production
costs have risen sharply since last year
30 that there can be absolutely no justifi-
ation for reducing the price on the 1944
crop. Labor alone in Georgia and Florida,
for the production and harvesting of the
1944 crop, is practically 100 per cent high-
er this year than last year; farmers are
s paying as high as $5.00 per day for hands
to harvest their tobacco. The net results
will be, if the announced ceiling is not
restored to 41 cents per pound on loose-
ear tobacco, the farmer will actually re-
-eive less per pound for the 1944 crop than
was received for the last crop, even though
she cost of production of the present crop
_has greatly increased.

es 5(2) The price fixed for tied flue-chred.



mitted the Burley growers for tobacco
sold, tied, by them during the last mar-

outh Carolinato represent them in coop- .

marketed under that ceiling price struct-

tobacco is less than the average price per-



keting season, and is considerably less fan
the maximum established for the Mary-
land crop. The Burley crop, under OPA

_ ceilings, averaged 4514 cents per pound

during the last season and the OPA fixed
a 62 cent per pound maximum price on
the Maryland markets.

Historically, flue-cured prices have av-
eraged as much or more than Burley prices
or the prices prevailing on the Maryland
markets. | Actually, there are more costs
involved in the curing and handling of flue-
cured tobacco than/in the curing and hand-
ling of Burley or Maryland tobacco. Flue-

cured tobacco. growers, who tie their to-

bacco for th market, feel that the adopt-

~ jon of a 4314 cent weighted average ceil-

ing for their crop is an unfair discrimina-

tion against them. Every reason ysed by the

OPA in fixing prices for Burley and Mary-
land grown tobaccos, substantially higher
than the 4314 cents announced for tied,
flue-cured tobacco, will apply to the flue-

cured crop. There can be no justification

for the establishment of a lower price on

oe And Presented To OPA n Official

tied flue-cured tobacco than is permitted

ers.

(3) It is but little short of an insult to
the intelligence of the farmers of this Na-
_tion to, in the face of the pledge in the
_ party platform at Chicago last week, keep
prices on farm products at a level which .
would insure the farmer an equal hourly
. wage with the industrial worker and then,
= before: the ink got dry on this promise, an-
nounce a ceiling on a very important pro-
- duct of the farmer at a level that would
not give him 50 per cent of the hourly
wage of the average industrial worker,
which is one dollar and three mills per

the Bees and MATTERS tobacco grow-_

hour. Unless the pledge is recognized in .

fixing prices on tobacco as well as all other
farm products, the farmers will have to
know that this pledge was made in a spirit

| of gross. insincerity.

(4) The request made by flue- cured

. growers for a 41 cent weighted average

ceiling price on loose-teaf tobacco and
4514 cents weighted average ceiling price
on tied tobacco was a modest request and

actually less than they should have re-

ceived for the 1944 crop, without any ef-
fort or expense by them or those repre-
senting them.

' (5) Failure of OPA to act ers in this
instance has created a serious problem
within the entire industry and is responsi-
ble for the chaotic conditions which are

now taking place. Had the OPA acted in

the spirit of the new law, tobacco growers |
could have sought relief. without the ne--

_cessity of such drastic action as delaying

the opening of the markets.

(6) The tobacco farmer must receive
not less than 41 cents for untied tobacco
and 4514 cents for tied tobacco as origin-
ally requested. We therefore urge that

~

4

you immediately restore the 41 cents

- weighted arereee ceiling on untied tobac-

- that you maintain the 41% cent differentie
already recognized as necessary to cove
extra handling costs for tied tobacco. An
- delay will cause serious loss to many grow

ly request your answer within wet
_ hours.
