"DEPARTMENT of (5% _ TOM LINDER AGRICULTURE COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, JUNE Z 1944 Chapter No. 2 On Cotton : Then. the Lord said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharoah: for with a strong hand hall he let them go, and with a strong hand shalt he ive them out of his land. Exodus 6:1. This i is the story of cotton to the consuming public. a This is a story just as vital to the sidewalks of sow rk, te Michigan Avenue of Chicago, to those of the Gold- ate of California and to those of the great farm belts he West and Middle West as it is to those who Brow. ton in the Southlands.

A 500 pound bale of cotton at ound, would bring $22,560.00. | Cotton Dresses Higher Than When Hand punand Hand Woven On a basis of weight and price these highe iced dresses cost more today than they did when there wasnt a power spindle or a sewing nachine. oF - When the women of old, spun. their thread th a spinning wheel, made cloth on a home- e loom, fashioned them by hand and sewed hem with a needle and thread, a cotton dress did + cost money like this. e 845.12 per - The farmer and his wife and children today | uld make more money with a hand loom and immine wheel than they could possibly make wing cotton on the best cotton land in the rid. 7 | - The Cotton Belt The Nations No. 1 Economic Problem President Roosevelt has said, The South is he Nations No. 1 Economie Problem. No won- the cotton belt is the Nations No. 1 economic blem. How could it be otherwise. On May 30, 1944, President Roosevelt also aid that he objected to the Bankhead Admend- nent to OPA which would tie the ceiling on the armers cotton to the ceiling ori manufactured tton. So The President thereby goes on record as be- in favor of perpetuating the South as the ions economic problem No. 1. he President has also said he is determined he Negro to have economie equality. He is sking Congress for $500,000.00 to support a com: ttee that he created called Fair Economic tice Committee. The purpose of this com- ittee is to see that the Negro gets economic aality in the South. I would like to know how anybody, white or }would have from 734 cents to 30 cent these higher. ndment d that. any increase in price of cotton would cause inflation. ae : Each of these dresses have from 5 to 20 worth of eotton in them. If the price of the farmers cotton was raised from 20 cents a pound #0 eents a pound then each of these dresses s worth of cotton. : - The increase in the cost of the raw cotton would amount to an average of 54% cents on each dress. | 3 Can you-imagine anyone saying that 5% cents more to the farmer would cause inflation? Can you imagine anyone saying that 5/8 of 1 cent out of each of the consumers dollars is enough for the farmer who cotton to receive? Today I talked to a lady who lives in Atlanta and who is one of the most substantial and re- liable ladies in Georgia. She gave me the follow- ing facts regarding dresses that she pow has. Just prior to the passage of the law creating OPA, this lady purchased5 dresses in Atlanta at prices ranging from $2.98 to $3.98 each. Today in the same store, the identical dresses are priced from $8.98 to $14.98 each. ; During the life of OPA, the prices of these dresses have increased more than 300 per cent. This lady also told me of another dress that had increased in price during the same period from $5.98 to $29.98. This is an increase of 500 per cent for the same dress under OPA. | Who Is Getting All This Money? It is evident that a terrific amount of money is being garnered by somebody. Who is getting | all this increased spread between the farmer and the consumer? Contrary to the opinion of many people, all this increased cost is not going to the cotton mill labor. i I have before me United States Government figures which show that the average hourly earn- ings of all cotton mill workers in January 1941 was 41.9 cents. In January 1944 this had in- creased to 59.4 cents per hour. . The increased cost of cotton mill labor se cost of cotton dresses amounts to at least 300 per cent. It is obvious that the cotton mill workers are not, responsible for this terrific increase in the cost of cotton dresses. = It is equally obvious that the farmer who gtows the cotton is getting no part of this wild increase. ee It is equally obvious that the consumers are paving this increase. . Lets follow this through and find out where the trouble lies.)
