Plum Branch, S. C.
Coimty Agent E. L. Rogers calls
attention to the following state
ment of the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration regarding the
causes of lower exports of Ameri
can cotton.
“With reference to the decline in
exports of cotton textiles and re
cent increases in imports, it
should be observed that a compen
satory tax equivalent to the do
mestic cotton processing tax must
be paid when manufactured cotton
articles are imported into this
country, and the cotton processing
tax is refunded when manufactur
ed articles are exported from this
country”, says the Agricultural Ad
justment Administration.
“Foreign manufacturers buy
American cotton at the same prices
that are being paid by American
required to pay a
compensatory import tax equival
ent to the cotton processing tax,
and in addition the tariff on cotton
textiles when the materials are im
ported into this country. It is
therefore obvious that the rise in
prices American producers receive
for cotton and the cotton process
ing tax are not factors in the com
petitive situation between Ameri
can and foreign mills.
! “In considering the increase ki
imports of cotton clqth. from the
low point of 1932 wften 29,436,000
'square yards w^re imported, to 1934
when 41,533,000 square yards were
Imported, it should be kept in mind
tiiat imports . were still compara
tively small. From 1926 through
1929 imports exceeded 60,000,000
square yards annually, and at the
peak in 1923, imports amounted to
218,970,000 square yards. Domestic
production of cotton cloth totaled
7,086,437,000 quare yards in 1934.
Imports, therefore, amounted to
slightly less than six-tenths of one
per cent of our domestic produc
tion of cotton cloth."
