AT last Congress, itself pre-eminently
guilty finally is aroused TO the frightful
waste OF white paper. While newspapers
have put into effect strictest economies both
as Il matter OF patriotism and to Offset con-
stantly increasing prices, there has been no
apprcciablc diminution in the size OF the Con-
grcssonal Record, while every government
institution seems TO regard it as essential that
1t have It's own booster newspaper and the
various departments and bureaus continue to
burden the mails and use up an endless num-
Der OF tons OF newsprint paper in recording
their several activities. TO q certain extent
their publicity efforts are laudable, but it
may be ventured safely that at least so per
cent represents merely wasted energy and
white paper. The record is filled to over
flowing with much that truthfully can be la
beled bunk; the institutional and bureau
publicity is largely duplication and redupli-

It was said farmers in central Illinois were hauling corn at every station. Consequent gossip that free marketing would result gave an evil dent advantage to the bears. Slow ness of eastern demand was also a handicap to the bulls, who during the first half of the session had been able to lift prices in the temporary absence of any aggressive selling, Later, how ever, conditions, were reversed, and In the last hour especially sellers had the whip hand.
 Oats displayed relative strength. Sea board demand was fair, and coun~ try offerings light. Provisions reced- ed with corn and hogs. Pork was neglected as government purchases were said to take most jof; the meat .which would be made'into that pro duct. Ia Ass.a.,

Last prices showed gains of 27 to g points. In the spot market, there was rise of 3S points, middling closing at 26.S3.
 The buying wave was encouraged by private reports of generally bet ter inquiry over the south, larger sales and a greater willingness on the part of buyers to meet the price views o spot owners and by the showing made by exports this week. The an nouncement by the war trade board that Holland would be permitted to import 100000 bales. of cotton in creased bullish sentiment.
 Cotton closed steady at an advance of 27 to 32 points.

WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW.

New York, Dec. GA firmer tone developed in the cotton market during the week. The decline which started after the signing of the armistice and which seemed to have been only tenn porarily checked by the prohibition on short selling, extended to 24.53 for January on last Monday, making a break of $59 bale or nearly 12 cents a pound from the high records of ear ly September. At this level old long accounts appeared to have been quite fully liquidated while there was a decided falling off in the selling at tributed to hedging stocks of yarns or goods and the market turned up ward on trade buying. There was also covering by Wall Street and Western interests and toward the end of the week better trade demand was re- ported. January contracts today sold at 27. 43, making an advance of about 290 points from the low level of the week end movement.
 Several private reports have been is- sued ranging from about 11,317, ,000 12,000,000 bales excluding linters most of them being under 11,S00,0 bales.
 It is stated that the British freight room allotment for January amounts to 100000 bales and that the trade agreement with Holland provides for the shipment of cotton and cotton goods equivalent to about 112,00t bales in Dutch bottoms.
 Rumors that French and Belgian iy, ho ,,1yo otc for several lines of cotton goods have been circulating but otherwise little ol no change has been reported in the goods markets.
 Further indications of improving export prospects and reports of in creasing interest among domestic

spinners lead to a further sharp ad vance in the cotton market here today. The general list closed easy at net advance of 15 to 50 points.
 The market opened steady at an ad vance on reports that the trade agree ment with Holland provided for the shipment of about 100000 bales in Dutch bottoms. Liverpool advices re- porting improved prospects for ship ments from this country and an in- creased January freight allotment as compared with December, and bullish Southern spot advices.
 There was considerable realizing around the initial figures causing re- actions of several points during the middle of the morning. The market soon firmed up, however, owing to the continuous absence of hedge selling, reports that spinners were either call ing cotton or fixing prices and that southern shippers were buying con- tracts here against spot commitments which they were finding it difficult to fill in Southern. markets. Reactions followed under realizing for over the week and some scattered southern selling was also reported.
 According to a private report is sued here today, the prospect is for a crop of 11,S25O0O bales excluding lin- ters, while the same authority esti- mated exports for the season includ- ing August at S,200,000 bales and do- mestic mill consumption for the same period at 7,5O0,O00 bales. -
