Czarnikow advises under date. Lon
don. October 18th: Setting aside
the slight fluctuations in beets, there
has been no decided movement either
way, buyers as well as sellers still
acting with caution.
continental manufacturers consid-
er that at the present level of values
there is nothing to be gained by max.
/ ing forward sales, and they are there
fore contining their operations to re-
alizing ready sugars. On the other
hand the trade continue their hands
/ to-mouth policy. and the crop being
now in full swing, were enabled 10
| purchase at fractionally lower rates.
Later on we may see, as already pre-
/ viously mentioned. greater resistance
I on the part of holders. which, with
the unusually small stocks in con-
( sumers' hands might bring about an
/ improvement.
/ BEETROOT-The French Septem-
Der production shows IA larger work
/ ing of roots, yielding decidedly more
/ than last year, and the German Sep
/ TENDER yield is likewise 9.62 per cent
against 800, but this is partly attrl-
/ butable TO the larger quantity of old
seconds turned out. The roots are not
! quite ripe in Austria, where the crop
/ reports are less favorable than in
France and Germany, but even in
these countries the eNtravagant hopes
entertained by some firms seem moi
! to be realized. Reports from various
districts of the same country vary
