Following the lead OF stronger cables
than expected the local cotton market
opened / to SS points higher, with the
exception of December, which opened 4
points lower.
Spot houses and Liverpool sold
moderately, while brokers representing
commission houses were good buyers of
January and March.
The market weakened shortly after
the opening. Liverpool was a good
seller. There was renewed southern
selling, although this was not so much in
evidence as the pressure from local and
Wall street sources.
Prices broke into new low grounds in
consequence. with December selling off
to 29.75c and January to 29.25c or about
3s to 40 points net lower.
At these figures there seemed to be
little more demand from trade
sources and also covering of shorts, with
the market showing slight rallies.

Unavoidable Conditions!

Owing to the fact that the war has brought
about many changes in the business world, we
compelled to adjust our business accordingly.
The government is regulating the prices many
articles which we have to sell these prices are fig
ured on n cash basis, therefore, the manufacturer
is holding the jobber to a cash ten day term,
likewise the jobber is demanding cash from the re-
tail merchant, now it is down to the point where
the retail merchant must get the cash for his
goods or go broke, Therefore from this date we
will confine our terms of credit to strictly thirty
days. Goods are hard to get, help is scarce, ex-
penses leaping upward, and we are forced to this
very much against desire. We hope our
friends will look at this vodable circum-
stance over which we haveno control
