Records of the ECA - show the Government has been buying cotton up to almost a million bales, mostly from Anderson-Clayton Cotton Company and paying as high as 37c a pound for hundreds of thousands of bales. 4 I am at a loss to understand why the American Farmers cotton is worth so much less than Anderson-Claytons cot- ton. There is one thing certain and-every farmer knows it, that is, the Secretary of Agriculture, whoever he may be, is an appointed member of the Presidents eabinet and must necessarily play ball with the Presidents policies. Since it is the policy of each President to get him- self re-elected and since the consumers have the votes, it follows as a matter of course that discretionary authority vest- ed in a cabinet member will be used against the producer and in favor of the consumer. _. The Commissioners of Agriculiure of the cotton growing states have instruct- ed me, as President of the Association of Southern Commissioners of Agricul- ture, to appoint a committee for the pur- pose of drafiing new legislation to be presented to your Honorable Committee and the House Committee. That will re- quire considerable time and certainly could not be done to advantage during the present session of Congress. In view of the above stated facis, let me again urge repeal of Aiken Bill and continuation of present price support another year. TOM LINDER, President Association Southern Commissioners of Agriculture The Southern Commissioners of Agri- euliure will draft a bill which will pro- vide a minimum price for agricultural products just the same as the law now provides a minimum wage for industrial workers. The Government does not subsidize wage earners, they simply passed a law making it illegal to employ a person for less than a minimum amount. There is no reason why the Government should subsidize anyone vecause the only possible way for the Government to subsidize anyone. is to take it away from someone else. Hven the money that we give to the Marshall Plan countries has to be taken out of the pockets of all the American people. The and Issue Sept. 21st ynore to the Marshall Plan countries know just what is going on. Government doesnt subsidize the Mave ee shall Plan countries. It cant. The Gov- ernment simply forces you and I to sub- sidize the Marshall Plan countries. Last year the Government forced the people of Georgia alone to contribute than the people of Georgia paid for the | entire State Government, including | schools, highways, Eleemosynary Insti- tutions and every phase of State Gov- ernment. It is a well known axiom that, The power to tax is the power to de- _ stroy. The most effective way on earth for the Federal Government to de- stroy all State Governments is to tax the peoples in the state to death. Then there is nothing left on which to operate a state Government and the State Gov- pee ay of necessity falls. : The history of all great nations of the past show, without exception, that once a Government is embarked on a course of subsidizing the people that the Gov- ernment fell and the people were left in much worse condition than if no sub- sidies had ever been granted. : This country and the world is passing through tremendous changes. These | changes move with such lightning like rapidity, it is impossible for anyone to There-i83, one thing we do know, however, and that is we cannot save ourselves by becoming weak, and we know that squandering of assets will make any business weak, ine | cluding the Government of the United at States. i There is another old axiom which says *When in doubt do nothing. The ac- tions of Congress with regard to pro posed farm legislation certainly shows tremendous doubt in the minds of the Membrs of Cengress. We now have commodity eredit loans which are work- ing reasonably satisfactory. It is time to hold on to the known which we have tried and to steer away from the um known which we have not tried. I cer- tainly hope that Congress will let well enough alone. Keep commodity loans as they are and take a long time to think before venturing into new uncharted fields.
