He said cotton farmers know that market ing must be financed, stored and merchandised later.

Tha: cotton was sold on t*e market by the grcnvc-ri.^a..a price higher than ti'x loan value. About $17.50 a bale was distributed Lack to grower^ by til? Commodity Credit Corporation on cotton which remeired under loan from the l'.)48 crop. , . Again in 1949 ’■farmers partici pated by placing more than one- :ifth of the crop into the loan. Ad vancing market prices made it profitable for producers to repav nearly all the loans that year and sod the cotton above the loan val ue. Producers were thus able to take advantage of a rising market. “Last year, good market prices of the small 1950 croo resulted in lit tle use of the loan program."

Upon inquiring the reason, I learned that, in view of the recent raise in wages and the 40-hour week law, the real es tate and insurance offices tried to make both ends meet” by closing on Saturdays.

This closing of the real estate office prevented my friend from renting a cottage because he could come down to look at cottages only during a week-end. The next two week-ends were cold and rainy.

But both employers and wageworkers must cooperate to increase sales and pro duction and the quality of the pro ducts.

The cTfcrks have no more money to take home; the real estate offices lose commis sions; the cottage owners lose rents and the merchants lost customers. Higher wages may be deserved; but they should not be followed by shorter or fewer working hours which result in less business and higher prices. Certainly, this infla tion balloon is bound to collapse sometime. The plan of keeping an office or store open fewer hours in order to keep costs down is bad for the na tion as a whole. Merchants are the bottleneck of business. The fewer hours an office or store is open, the less it sells; the less it sells, the less it buys from the factories. As re tail sales decline, the factories are obliged to layoff employees. This unemployment results in less pur chasing power and so the trouble increases. Working fewer hours may easily be a cause of the next business depression. What Is the Remedy? If prosperity is to continue, more sales and more production are es- Whal About Strikes? Then finished costs would go down, causing lower prices to ben efit consumers; while both real wages and real profits would in crease likewise. But strikes which are costly to all parties must also be discouraged. It would greatly help in reducing strikes by insert ing a clause in every labor contract that neither the labor officials nor the company officials could get any pay while a strike is on! This sim ple clause would do much to help] out us consumers. Another thought:. Returning to my reference to the cottage. The owner of the vacant cottage had some idle money which he had planned to use in building another cottage next door. The fact, how ever, that he failed to rent his pres ent vacant cottage caused him to give up building the new cottage. This will result in a loss to 27 dif ferent industries, from the woods men who cut lumber to the electri cians, plumbers and painters. Yes, even the city of Gloucester loses one more cottage to tax while the new summer resident would lose a vacation making him more efficient all next year. .32 .39 .39 1.28 .32 .46 .21 .13 $2.50.

By placing cotton in the loan farmers can spread the marketing cl this year’s big crop over ajqng- cc period of tima and prevent ma ket gluts. Preventing market gluts will strengthen the market and protect prices. “Cotton farmers must realize, however,” Mr. Workman said, “that a floor under the market will net build itself.
