Excerpt from Cotton Purchase: Hearings Before the Committee on Banking and Currency, House of Representatives, Sixty-Third Congress, Second Session, September 21, 1914The southern people are not coming as petitioners and beggars in this matter. The are presenting to you a question that is national, international, an world wide in its aspect. For when you strike down the cotton industry of the South you destroy a national and international product. You not only injure the South but every State in this Union and the balance Of civilized mankind. The farm ers of the South did not bring this Condition upon themselves.C The terrible war conditions in Europe have brought it about. W'e' all hope that those conditions will pass within the next few months and that our markets for cotton will be reopened and that the situa tion will be normal. And when the war is terminated and the. Market is reopened, then cotton can be purchased.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
