The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Extremely quiet conditions prevailed
in the foreign exchange market. The
inability of banks to keep up cable com
munication with London because of the
heaviness sof government messages has
put the local market on its own as far
as the making OF quotations is con-
cerned. The general tone Of the mar
ket was steady.

Cotton Prices Soar
On Concentrated
Short Covering
Large Declines, Followed
by Maximum Rise AL
lowed by Exchange

The gods who control the destiny of
cotton seem tickle minded. An ominous
decline in prices Tuesday induced the
strong arm OF the government to inter-
venc, and the rules of the Cotton EN-
change limiting huctuation to 200
points we're automatically invoked.
Three days later yesterday the price
drift was in the opposite direction. and
ror The second time since the armistice
with Germany was signed fluctuations
in price had to be artiticially limited
TINS time to prevent an unbrdled ad-
vance.
The action OF the cotton market yes
terday gave credence to the theory that
the move OF the Cotton Distribution
Committee in forbidding short selling
would greatly marrow The market ana
lead to violent fluctuations. An &C
cumulation OF buying orders yesterday
morning, principally for Liverpool ac-
count, found little encouragement from
sellers. because of the no short selling
restriction. And the orders could not
be executed until the buyers bid up the
prices 70 the 200 point limit, thus at
tracing local people who We're long on
contracts and we're willing TO dispose o.
them and take profits Virtually no
substantial selling came from Southern
quarters. Liverpool's orders were in
terpretcd as an attempt to cover as in
terests overseas arc said TO be Strad-
ding that is. are short Of cotton in
New York and long in Liverpool.
Why the Rise Came
Price gymnastics are illustrated by
the movement Of January contracts,
which sold at 28.O5 at the opening. re-
acted to 27.30 and closed at 2S05, or
exactly $40 bale above the final price
of Thursday and sl2.75 q bale above the
low level Of Wednesday morning. This
represented a recovery to within ~
points OF the closing price OF last
Saturday.
The precise impulse which led to the
large accumulation of buying orders
was not clear to all observers Of the
market. Some believed that the shorts
We're coming to believe that the elm
inaton Of short selling made the mar
kct technically unsafe to remain short
in. Others suggested that perhaps the
bottom Of the decline for period had
been reached. The orders from Liver
pool, though large. were restricted by
q congosted cable service. which. how
ever, brought the news that Liverpool,
AOi VIC Sane VI Il!OI illy IIdd lOl-
lowed the American example and tenn
porarily forbidden short sales.
The opening sales were made AT an
advance Of 200 points on all months ex-
cept December, which sold 100 points
higher right after the call When sell
ers remembered that the price was
automatically restricted from rising
any more during the day they began
TO make realizing sales, causing reac-
tions OF GO to 80 per cent. The prices
at the close were at the maXimum

Exports 1887 Bales

New-York tribune., 1918-11-16

No serious business depression
ever came on the heels of iillable
shortage in one industry estimated
at three million men, with economic
conditions and the United States
government combining practically
to guarantee the highest prices IN
that industry. That is practically
the present condition of farming IN
this country, with thirty millions of
our population supported thereby.
The National Board Of Farm Or
carnations estimates the shortage
of farm laborers at three millions.
1t does not greatly matter if this
figure is somewhat excessive. We
know definitely that taking three
million men for the army meant
taking nearly one million from the
farms. Making war munitions had
taken from one 10 TWO millions from
the farms before that. The short
ages made nave been to some small
extent compensated. But we know
that the actual quantities Of food
produced on the farm, even at war
prices, has not been in excess Of
the pre-war average. And such is
the present condition that the gov
ernment not only guarantees the
wheat price, but practically fixes the
price for hogs as we'll. That price
is $17.5O a hundred. That is equiv
alent also to fixing the price Of
corn. The price thus established
for the three is about two and a
half times the average pre-war
price. Wheat, corn and hogs virtu-
ally determine the average price Of
all other. farm products. And this
is still by far our greatest industry.
Two billions less for taxation
ought to take a great weight off a
great many industries on which the
proposed war taxation for next year
bore all too heavily. One possible
result of the elections was to make
it. clear that a Willingness on the
part of Congress to let Northern
capital and industry bear the major
burden of the war taxation might
be subject to 4 revision.
One shrewd observer looks at con-
dit;ons this wise: If, in peace time,
the savings banks had piled up eigh-
teen billions or more in new ac-
counts in two or three years it
would have been regarded as a
financial miracle. Yet, taken to-
gether, the Liberty loans and the
war savings stamps represent some
thing Of an equivalent to this very
thing. Not precisely, it is true.
Some of this sum has been spent in
the same way as in the European
nations at war, but it is we'll to re-
member that nearly eight billions
has already been put on loan to for
eign countries, and perhaps two
billions more will have gone into
ships and the creation of other rea,
and profitable property. That means
at least ten billions that may be said
to represent real savings, of exactly
the same sort as if the money haG
been put into the banks and ther
loaned out to industry and on rea
improvements.

Nhcat.-The government apparently
recognizes the fact that the needs of
Europe for foodstuifs are so urgent
that the FIRST shipments from tins coun-
try should consist of materials which
can be most readily utilized for quick
consumption. The first shipments will
probably consist largely of flour, and it
is said that the government has pur
chased around 100000 barrels for
prompt shipment in the last few DAYS
Not only have the mills been called
upon 20 furnish large supplies Of -four
