PAGE SIX BOARD WILL AID COTTON CO-OPS • Lend Association Enough To Advance 16 Cents Per Pound ♦ Washington, Oct. 21.— The Federal Farm Board announced today it would lend to cotton cooperatives sums suf ficient to bring the total amount bor rowed from all sources by such as sociations to' 16 cents per pound on graded and classed cotton, and di& closed simultaneously that it is pre paring to take similar action on wheat under a plan to be revealed later. The statement, which came as a surprise and was received with grat ifiaction by cotton state senators on Capitol Hill, was prefaced with the declaration that the board "believe." the present prevailing prices for cot ton are too low." Nearly $100,000,000 is available from the board's Tevolving fund for the cotton financing, and the board said it would ask Congress for more if it becomes necessary. Explaining its opinion that cur-j rent cotton prices arc too low, the board noted that the total supply of American cotton this year is less than it was year. That fact, together ■[ with consumption continuing at the same rate as last year and the ac- ( tual sale of cotton goods having in creased, the board said it felt might have increased the price if the raw product had been marketed in an or- J derly manner. Under the plan, the co-operative j associations will take the farmers' cotton and market it over a period of a year as it is needed, settling with the farmer on the final price obtain- j ed.
