OIL LETTER
NEW YORK, March 27.-To abandon the bull
side of the cotton oil list at this stage would
lie premature. True, factors are shaping to
hinder a further great enhancement OF value,
especially in the new crop positions, but these
factors have not become formidable enough as
Yet to nulllfy the influence of the remarkable
dearth Of cotton oil supplies, which the trade
must face for another six months.
The soap trade is no longer vitality interested
in the cottonseed oil Of this season aud the
export buying is down to small volume. Oil
for salad. butter and baking purpose Is being
bought very conservatiyely; other oil users have
adopted a similar attitude, But sufficient IN
roads have already been made on the cotton
oil supply TO merit the recording or Sun hlsher
levels before summer. The increased business
Of the compound lard trade is aggravating the
Tho many peace reports, logical and
others puerile, must not De lost slght OF; feac9
may or may not come soon, but the sentimental
effect of the advices permeates a vast terri
tory Should peace come, lard would be eN-
pected to soar the prospect Of immense SNIP
ments TO Germany 1t is this possibility that
is helping lard at present, causing compound
lard makers to buy more cotton oil and lnsurlns
higher cotton oil values.
At Later date when the cotton crop start
shall have been determined satisfactory and
high oil prices shall still argue against its
/ consumption, we shall recommend the sale OF
the distant new crop oil positions in the New
/ York market Except as profitable hedge
against next seasons crush we feel that there
need be no undue haste in selling these deliveries.
! However merely because oil will be here
in October or perhaps little late in September.
/ II might take six months Of new crop oil sup
| plies to appcase the demand certain 10 exist
| as on ourgrowth Of the startling shortage this
! year.
