WASHINGTON, Sept. 18 — Uncle Sam is going back Into the cotton business in a big way. ~ With the largest crop since 1937 being harvested —15,219,000 bales—the cotton trade estimates a third will go into storage under Federal loar: Cotton prices are coming down and have reached 31.04 cents, pretty close to the support floor of 30.74 cents. = Twenty-one million people in this country depend on cotton for their livelihood.

price goes up. If he doesn’t, the government will become owner

“|of the cotton next year.

The effect of this operation will be to hold a great amount of cotton off the market this year and keep the price from crashing through the support floor. The effect also may be to land several million bales in thc hands of the government. Set No Limits Agriculture experts say the cotton surplus in sight this year isn’t big enough to justify setting quotas (lintits) on the amount of cotton it will accept for loan next year. So the cotton farmer is assured one more year in which he knows he can get at least 30 cents for all the cotton he can. raise. ‘ , the long run, however, the cotton farmer faces a surplus and not a scarcity market, Other cotton countries are coming into production, * Export opportunities are dwindling, and the use of rayon for clothing is
