BURGESS At the opening session of the International Cotton Advisory Committee in Washington, D.C.. in mid-October. Secretary of Agriculture Clifford M. Hardin underlined the importance of cotton to farm livelihood in this country, according to H.O. Carter, for the Agricultural Director for the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service. Believing that Secretary Hardin's remarks on the cotton industry will be of interest to cotton growers and others associated with the industry, Mr. Carter provided the following excerpts from Mr. Hardin's speech: "While cotton may not bulk as large in total U.S. agricultural production as in some countries, cotton is just as important to farm livelihood and to regional economies in the United States as it is in other sections of the world. "Cotton is an important crop in 12 of our SO States. In four of them it provides one-fourth or more of total receipts from the marketing of farm crops. "In the central part of our cotton belt - where 60 percent of the crop is produced - one-third of the crop production work force is employed in cotton. "The estimated investment in the US. cotton industry - in land, machinery, equipment, supplies - is in the neighborhood of S20 billion. "So it is natural - and proper - that the United States is concerned about the cotton farmer and his ability to make a living - just as every other cotton-growing country represented on this committee. "We are concerned that cotton has been in trouble and continues to be in trouble ?? worldwide as well as in the United States. We all know that cotton is not sharing in the impressive growth of the textile market. "The hard fact is that cotton's share of this expanding market has dropped from 65 percent to less than SO percent in the recent past. "In simple terms, cotton -- a fiber unmatched by any other, natural or man-made - has been out-researched, out-promoted, and outsold by man-made fibers. "It is unrealistic, I think, to expect that cotton can ever match the huge sums spent by man- mades on research and promotion. But it is realistic to expect that by working together, with wise use of the resources available, and with a sharing of problems and burdens, the cotton family can reduce the widening gap between synthetics and cotton, on which so many millions depend for a living "Price, of course, is a crucial factor - not only in the market place, where it largely determines sales, but in the cotton field, where the farmer t must meet his expenses and feed his family with the return he gets from his farming operation. 'This means that supplies must be balanced to provide the producer with a fair return for his cotton at a price that will move it on the markets of the world. This is no easy challenge, as all of us here can testify. "From the producer's standpoint, world cotton prices the last year or two have not been attractive, although the recent upturn has improved the situation. However, with competition from man-made fibers, there is no future for cotton at a high price - either in the short run or the long run. Cotton pays a penalty for high prices in shifts to man-made - markets do not seem to come back no matter what the subsequent price. "This suggests to me that the future of cotton, while it depends on research and promotion, yes, depends even ? more on the ability of the producing countries to shift their thinking from gross production to efficient low cost production. "The key question should be: How can we have a 4 prosperous domestic cotton economy at prices that are competitive the world over? "You will be discussing these and other problems this week, and next. The United States is pleased to participate once again, because we intend to continue to produce cotton, and to continue to work within the cotton family as a reliable producer for world markets."
