I l THE CLINTON CHRONICLE t’ace Two Thursday, August 2, 1951 Jones Says Cotton Farmers Undersold On Price Support Biiffii Announcements Columbia, July 30.—State Commis- ’ v.oncr of Agriculture J. Roy Jones i.mplained today that South Caro lina and other cotton farmers had lien undersold on price support by U. S. Secretary of Agriculture Char les F. Brannon. Hf made his complaint in a letter to Brannon, copies of which went to the press and South Carolina mem bers of congress and other Southern state agriculture comnjissioners. Jones' complaint was that farm ers had expected a support price ( from the Department of Agriculture at 00 per cent of the ceiling price es tablished by, the Office of Price Sta bilization, but that they have gotten a support price instead of 90 per ceivt of parity. The ceiling price is 45.76 cents a pound for 15-16s middling, whereas paiiiy’s 90 per cent currently figures to about 31.75 a pound—the govern ment loan value for cotton. Farmers feel that this year’s crop! was planned as a defense project,”! Jones said in his letter, and there- ( fore they "are justified in presum-' ing" the price would be protected. He said fertilization, insect control and harvesting costs are higher than ever, and that farmers spent money on these expecting a crop price of 40 cents a pound. Jones noted that the national de-> fensc act gives Brannon the power, to call a defense council meeting and reconsider the price arrangement. He asked that this be done.
