COTTON GROWERS

Pres. johnson Says Price
ArtificialIy Depressed.

ATLANTA, GA, Feb. 1.--(SpeciaD
In calling attention to the coming
annual convention of the Georgia Div
ision OF the Southern Cotton Asso-
citation, which will meet in the SEN
ate chamber at the state capitol next
Wednesday, President H, L. Johnson
today stressed the Importance of or
ganized action by the cotton pro-
ducers to the end Of maintaining
a fair price for their product.
President Johnson said:
1T is fact worthy of construc-
ton and comment that other great
farm products than cotton are holding
their own in price and are higher now
than for several seasons past at the
same time of the year.
This fact is true of wheat, corn,
hay, oats and all of the staple pro-
ducts, and yet the volume of money
for the purpose of handling these
crops is just as small and scant as
that available for handling cotton
"If the volume of money is so mat
erial factor in fixing the price, why
has not the alleged scarcity affected
the price of wheat and corn just as
it has affected cotton2 The supplies
of these crops to meet the demand
are just as plentiful, if not more so
than the supply of cotton.
The truth is the alleged money
scarcity has nothing to do with it.
Treasury reports show that our sup
ply of money is greater per. capita
now than it has ever been. The fact
is that systematic efforts have been
made to depress the price of cotton,
a southern product"
