COTTON VALUES
ON RISING GROUND
Spots in Americas Market
in Good Demand.

Cotton contracts showed a good
gain at the opening yesterday as
compared with the close for Sat
urday. Early cables were indiff-
erent. On this side of the water there
was cold weather reported and cover
ing by shorts at the opening rushed
up prices. Liverpool continued to
advance until the close there was
most encouraging to the advocates OF

gains over the first figures.

CLARK & CO.'S COTTON LETTER

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Cables to-
day on opening were rather tame,
especially in the spot division. Our
opening was fairly active with COM
mission houses buying. The wealth
er showed traces of rain over the en-
tire belt and low temperature in sew
eral sections, Shreveport, Louisiana
receiving some snow. \ The excellent
buying from the Liverpool crowd
and good spot business after our
firm stand in the first hour caused the
more timid shorts to get uneasy and
cover, pushing January up to 1927
The market hesitated around these
figures on account of the heavy re-
ceipts reported from Galveston,
Houston and New Orleans. The fnan-
cial situation seems to be clearing
up according to newspaper reports,
but we are inclined to the belief that
they are doing this in their efforts to
keep down pessimistic opinions
Scrip is being handed out nearly ev-
cry Southern town with banking facil-
tiles in a worse condition than a
month ago. There will be larger
quantities of cotton coming out on
every advance wherever the farmer
can get the cash, as on every farm
we hear of large stocks being piled
up. The bear pool are working over
night, with everything in their favor
and we prefer the short side until
we can once more see those dear old
green backs

ABOUTTYPOGRAPHlCAL UNION
Something of the History of the Oldest
Trade Organization in the World.

Trade Organization in the World.
The great strike in the book and JOB
printing industry. in which the Inter
national Typographical Union of North
America and the United Typothctae of
America have been pitted against each
other for Is months. has attracted CON
siderable attention To trade union
methods and the history of trade or
CARNATIONS. The international Typo
graphical Union was formed in 1852,
and has had successful and progress
sive existence since that time. Pre-
vious % 1872 there were many local
associations Of unions of printers. and
la convention of these local assoCia-
lions was held at early as 1894.
The International Typographical
Union is recognized as conservative
organization and this is borne ont by
the effort that was made by he officers
OF The union 10 peaceably adjust the
S-hour contention with the employers
before the strike was entered into.
This strike has been Il marvel of tinan-
Ciering. The International TNpO%raph-
zeal Union has a membership of about
1900. and. with the exception OF about
$4,000. these 1900 members have
raised by assessment more than s.,
10000 for the conduct OF their strike
for the S-hour day. The assessment
was at first 20 cents per week, then 10
per cent of all wages earned. The 10
per cent assessment was effective for
nine months. It was then reduced 20
: per cent. later 10 per cent. and is
now > per cent. The method of levy
ing the assessment is also worthy Of
explanation. II was not placed by I
convention. nor by the officers OF the
organization. The proposition was sub
mi-ted 10 a referendum vote. The pro
posaI to levy 30 cents per week re
votes. and the proposal to levy a 10
| per cent assessment received a ma
jOrity OF more than $4,000 votes.
The International Typographical
| Union also conducts Il home at Col
Orado Springs. known as the Union
| Printers Home. This institution was
erected and is maintained by the Inter
/ l!'ilIViol I y Bp-l dIllllNdl l mum Iti IT,
aged and distressed members. Thus
| far. the union. in erecting and carry
ing on this part OF its philanthropic
work. has expended more than 100000
+ in about twelve years time. There
are at the present time at the Union
! Printers Home about 100 inmates.
Local typographical unions also have
their benefit features. such as caring
! for sick members. assisting those who
may be temporarily out of work. and
! burial funds which are contributed TO
| by ali members. Along these lines
| thousands of dollars are expended ev-
cry year
The headquarters of the Interna-
| tional Typographical Union are located
in Indianapolis. Ind. and the officers
of the organization are continually
