The SUn's cotton review says: cultures
were slightly lower for this crop, and partially
l Point dearer for the next crop. IL was to day
mainly local switching market. Operators
were inclined TO carry forward their contracts
ana besides selling early months and buying
next, there was q long list of 'exchanges on
the blackboard Other influences were for ths
moment ignored. Weather reports from the
south were generally favorable TO crop pros
poets. The widening OF the differences between
june, July and August shows that the market
is distinctively long and the switching
process may go on for several days. Spot
