NUMBER 19
















ditorial By TC TOM LINDER
at long last there are signs that the







. Foreign philosophies and
isms have. been fed with sugar
to tickle our ee while iy





Tt isa fact generay ao in
rts of the nation where I have
eled that the fate of this country
depend upon southern leadership
whether or not it measures up to
eat opportunity in this crisis.
I am in receipt of a letter from Mr.
-Mann, General Manager of North
lina Cotton Gr owers Cooperative
sociation.
fr. Mann enclosed a copy of tele-
sent to President Truman on Jan-
ary 11th which I reproduce herewith:

A flash over the wine stated quote
A officials announce preliminary
ce ceilings on.cotton may be announc-
today or Monday unquote.
Representing thousands of cotton
rmers and realizing that they now
oy the lowest and of living of
y of our farm people I implore you in
name of humanity not to permit
ing prices to be placed on raw. cot-
thereby adding to the heartaches
d suffering of thousands of tow in-
come cotton farm families.
We wired Mr. Bowles Monday
quote a purchase of four low priced gar-
nts from a southern store and an
ilysis of these garments showed that
ae tailored dress purchased at
en dollars ninety eight cents and
e from four yards of material whieh
purchased from the mill at a cost
only one dollar forty cents. A plain
ite dress selling at nine dollars nine-
ee cents eontained cloth sold by the
at ninety eight cents. A dotted
ISS priced nine dollars ninety five
ts and made from material which net-

icey fron ae North has been

mill received one dollar sixty one ae

All these prices received by mills in-

cluded cost of raw cotton unquote.
Mister President, cotton goods man-

ufacturers and cotton farmers are not

responsible for the high prices being

charged for clothing suid if the price

of raw cotton should be decreased five
eents a-pound or increased five cents a
pound it would not affect the cost of
the shirt you are wearing one dime. <A
ceiling price on raw cotton will send a
gloom throughout this southland of ours
the like of which has not been witnessed
since that eventful day of April twelfth
eighteen sixty one when the first shot
vs the Civil War was fired on Fort Sum-
ter,

No man in our Government should
be permitted to make a statement af-
fecting the lives of so many unless it
ean be baeked up by honest facts. What
anyone may believe is not sufficient and
furthermore men in high positions in
our Government should not give out
statements that something may be done
or may not be done and neither should
statements affecting the lives of so
many people be made until the full and
complete information is given.

A price ceiling on raw cotton would
be unfair to the thousands of cotton
farmers and we beg of you that this
matter be reconsidered.

M. G Mann, General Manager,

N. C. Cotton Growers Cooperative

Assn.

The $7.98 dress contained
worth of cotton cloth.

The cotton mill received $1.40 for
the cloth to make a $7.98 dress.

The farmer received less than 15
for the cotton that went into this $7.98
dress.

If the farmer had not received any-
thing for the cotton the price of the
dress could not have possibly been af-
fected more than I5e.

The same is substantially eae of
all the other garments mentioned in Mr.
Manns telesram.

As the Market Bulletin has so often
pointed out, the only purpose of the
OPA ceiling on cotton is to destroy the
American farmer and put him out of
business.

$1.40

No man or woman of reasonable
intelligence could believe otherwise
when Mr. Bowles pretends that 15e

worth of cotton would control the price
of dresses or other cotton garments.
I am also in receipt of a letter from

dling 7-8 price probably 20e CWT.

For the first time since 1838 the State of Georgia has sufficient cash reserves to liquidate every commitment made by the

State, to date, whether currently due, or maturing. ata future date. a ee
S The State has on several occasions had sufficient cash to liquidate its current bills payable, but has never before had
reserves to apply in full payment of bonds, etc., maturing at a future date. Very few Governmental Agencies consider
bonded debt in making statements of their financial condition, thus placing Georgia in a very unique position.
_ The State also has, for the first time to my knowledge, cash reserves to match all Federal Aid Funds accrued to the State
for Highway purposes and not utilized in the past years. 2
In 1838 the first bonded debt of the State was incurred to build the Sits railroad, gid since: that dais we have paid
more than five times the principal in interest. :
The State rocked along very well, living within its income, until 1921 when it was deceaad that services be given the
people in anticipation of future revenue, and in this year, five years of the W. & A. Railroad Rentals were discounted at a.
oy _ cost to the State of $402,413.79. In 1926, 1931 antl 1938 these Rentals were again discounted and the total cost of all the
discounts was $3,063,684.24. The largest item of debt was the assumption in 1931 af the $26,667,909.30 debts of the various
counties of the State incurred by Highway construction.

By the bonded debt, by discounting rentals, by the assumption of county debts, by the scablishinert or the Hospital
Authority, by buying prisons on a lease rental basis, and by antici ipating future income for Highway construction, the State
_by December 31, 1940 had an accumulation of debts: which reached the highest peak of $53,170,146.09. These obligations
were composed of $14,528,866.31 in past-due debts for which there was no cash to pay and soci 64,279. a in eolqnans
having future maturing dates. es



As it was necessary that action be taken to place Bstegic ina stronger fi financial position, the General hesokly in
January 1941 and in 1943 enacted Legislation to aid the administration in correcting the States financial condition.
By December 1942 the $14,528,866.31. cash deficit had been overcome, and there was $7,619,494.57 cash on hand in
_ excess of the current obligations, which together with the $2,546,720.00 cash in Sinking Fund, reduced the States net Jiability
on the $35,961,630.38 future payable obligations, down to $25,795,415.81.

This December 31, 1945, the State stands in the enviable position of having- a current cash surplus of $591,230. 09,
which together with the Sinking Fund reserves of $21,304,580. 45, will completely liquidate all obligations now outstanding |
against the State whether due today, next year, or five years from now, and still have a current surplus of $591,230.09.

In. the present Constitution the administration, General Assembly, and the people, by their vote, have enacted laws to
_ preserve the present solvent condition of the State, however, only time will tell as to whether or not these laws are of suf-
ficient strength to carry out the purpose for which they were enacted. _

Today, the State has an excellent system of financial control which has been developed out of the eoraaieeaion of the
State in 1931 prior to which time there was a hue and cry by the people for centralized control and responsibility rather
than a dislocated control by thirty or forty different boards, It is regretted that in the last few years we have a ceually

, feversed the progress and apparently are now inclined towards the old form of government. _
It gives me great pleasure to report these particular facts to the people and this office takes considerable pride in its
small contribution in cooperating With the administration in liquidating in the oe five years obligations against ae State
which had been Gceumilating since 1838. : os ;

The Georgia Legislature passed by
imanimous vote strong resolutions in
opposition to any ceilings on cotton.

I am also-in receipt of a message
from Honorable Si Corley, Commissi-
oner of Agriculture, of Mississippi, of
strong resolutions passed by the Miss-



_ Honorable Roy 761 ones, Commission-
er of Agriculture of South Carolina
told me on the telephone that the South
Carolina Legislature was considering
resolutions on the same line.

: A few days ago, I sent a telegram
to. the Senators and Congressman from
= Georgia and also to a number of Sena-
tors from other states who are my
friends. _

The response from this Elenen
a8 ee encouraging and both Senators
George and Russell state unalterable op-
position to the ceiling on cotton.
Tam in receipt of a telegram from
Senator Elmer Thomas of - Oklahoma,
who is Chairman of the Senate Ne
tural Committee, which reads as follows:

MARKET BULLETIN

Retel advise conference held yes-
terday with Senators George, Bank-
head,
present. Agreement reached to oppose
eeiling on cotton and if ceiling is impos-
ed to defeat extension OPA, Hope you
will take lead with other cotton commis-

sloners 12 asserting and supporting. this
program.

Senator Clyde R. Hoey of North
Carolina writes me that he is doing all
in his power against it.

I am also in receipt of the follow-

ing telegram from Senator W. Lee
ODaniel of Texas:
Telegram received and having

consideration have introduced a bill to.
abolish the OPA and am _ considering

your views concerning Commodity
redit Corporation.

J am also in receipt of. letters from
Congressmen Wood, Vinson, Peterson,
Pace, Brown and Cox, all of Georgia
and all vigorously opposing anv ceiling
on cotton. |

I feel quite sure that the other Con-
eressmen of Georgia from whom I have
not heard are also opposed to any ceil-
in.

HOURLY WAGES -

It is a well recognized principle
throughout the cotton "helt: that it re-
quires one hour ef labor to produce one
pound of lint cotton and harvest it.
The national administration is lending
its every effort to raise hourly wages in
mills and factories. The national ad-
