COTTON TO BRING 10 CENTS POUND Roosevelt Approves Plans For Loans To Set Minimum Price Washington, Sept. 22. The Roosevelt administration today fash ioned a powerful lever by which it hoped to raise farm prices through a virtual guarantee that cotton still on the farm would bring 10 cents -—or'more —per pound. Through Reconstruction corpora tion funds, the farmers who still hold their cotton will be loaned 10 cents a pound, if necessary, the plan being a companion piece of the 1934-35 cotton control program which was announced today by Secretary Wallace. The secretary said he understood the loans would be limited to thos? farmers wljp. agyceed' to join in the —etiTfip&lgn to reduce cotton acreage in the south next year to 25,000,000 acres. Oscar Johnson, finance adminis trator of the farm administration, said loans of 10 cents a pound would be made, in all probability, on all cotton of the 1933 crop held by the farmer—should he desire it. The 10 cents, Johnson said would by farm price and not exchange prices which are 40 points or more higher than the price to the aver age grower. He said some adjust ment would be made to take care of freight rates etc., but these would be worked out later. Prices on the New York exchange are around 9 cents for middling cotton at present.
