on that morning opened only 5 points be-
low the close of Thursday and held firm
during the entire day, which is about as
good test as any 20 which the market
could be subjected. The situation APP
pears TO be the strongest in recent years.
According to the best information, the
crop does not exceed 100000 bales.

demand from American spinners. it is
estimated. will amount TO from 100000
to 100000 bales more than III any pre-
viouS year. General business in all lines
is active, and consumption of cotton is
greater than ever before. With under
lying conditions so favorable it would
seem that cotton should be we'll worth
the ruling price, and that there must
be radical and unexpected change OF
affairs before any permanent low range
of quotations for cotton can be looked
for.
Sreeulatively the situation appears 10
be strong. II is believed that there IS 4
large short interest in the market created
by foreign selling at a time when South
African affairs seemed 10 be at their
worst. Recent profittaking sales by peo-
pie who bought options at much lower
figures have Also reduced the outstanding
long account. Nevertheless. should the
South African outlook assume graver
aspect it might throw damper on
European buying. Keeping this in mind,
speculative trading in cotton should be
conducted with caution. Spot cotton in
this market is strong. Middling being
quoted at rs. and all the Southern mar
kets are exceedingly firm, which facts
will justify purchases on reaction.
