Senator Jordan Lot ton
By Sen. B. Everett Jsrlu
Recently the President sign
ed into law a bill which I sin
cerely (eel will bring a new
period of progress and expan
sion to both our cotton-produc
ing and our cotton-manufactur
ing industries.
This bill became law after
many, many months of hard
work on the part of both indus
try and Congressional leaders
and it will enable the American
textile mills to buy American
produced cotton at the same
price foreiTi mills have been
buying American-produced cot
ton. For several years foreign
mills have been able to buy
American-produced cotton for
about $42.50 a bale cheaper
than American mills could buy
the same cotton .
This, of course, has put the
American mills at a distinct
disadvantage and it has creat
ed very serious problems for
cotton producers since a great
many mills have been shifting
from cotton to synthetic fibers.
I was an original co-sponsor
of the bill that was enacted in
to law and I worked very close
ly with leaders in both the
House and the Senate in get
ting it enacted. President
Johnson invited me to be on
hand at the White House at
noon when he signed the bill
and he was thoughtful enough
to give me one of the pens he
used in signing it into law.
The program under the new
law will not go into full effect
until August 1, 1964.
The Department of Agricul
ture has announced an interim
program to be in effect be
tween now and then. Under
the interim program, American
mills will be given certificates
representing the amount ot
cotton they open and use be
tween April 11 and August 1,
1964. These certificates will be
valued at the rate of about 6
l/a cents per pound for the cot
ton opened and used between
now and August 1.
1 had hoped the Department
would go ahead and make the
payments at the rate or s-^
cents between now and August
1st. in order for the program
authorized under the bill to go
into full effect immediately.
There is still some question
about how some of the details
of the program will operate
after August 1st and the De
partment has scheduled hear
ings in Charlotte on April 30
and May 1 and in Memphis.
Tennessee, on May 4 and 5 to
work out final arrangements.
All in all, this new law is
far from perfect, but there is
no doubt about the fact that
it is a definite step in the right
direction. The new law will
bring about more demand for
cotton which will be of tremen
dous benefit to cotton farmers
and at the same time enable
textile mills to more nearly
meet the competition of syn
thetic fibers and foriegn im
ports.
ITEM: You can spend more for
your kitchen range than necessary
by selecting one with automatic
features that you do not need or
want. A quality range will give
years of service if it is made by
a reputable manufacturer and if
local service is available in the
future.
