HIGH SCHOOL SUSPENDS;
NO HEAT FOR PUPILS

BLUE MOUNTAIN, Miss, Nov. 1G.
(Spl)-Blue Mountain high school has
again suspended for an indefinite pc
Rod, the reason being the failure of
the board Of trustees to get the new
school building equipped with a heating
plant in time for cold weather. The
former school building has been made
unavailable for use, hence there IS
nothing to do but discontinue the work
until provisions of some kind are made
for keeping the children comfortable In
the new structure,
Prof. p. w. Hampton sees no imme-
date solution of the situation, but the
board of trustees will be certain to
make some temporary arrangement,

cause Of the difficulty in securing both
material and labor for construction,

three or four weeks of work on ac-
count of the epidemic Of influenza.

limit.
Now Up to South.
From a trading standpoint. the week
was not satisfactory, and none can say
how long conditions VIII continue as
they now appear to be. The contract
markets naturally will amount to little
while sales are under the ban as they
are and they will be scarcely other
HI d reflection of the spot
Trading will certainly become more
limited, although fluctuations may pc
erratic in the extreme. There Is a
big short interest, and it will be largely
at he mercy of the South, which hol1s
the only large supply OF raw cotton IN
the world. Unless those who w II
are willing to sell at prices now cur
rent, the holders of short contracts VIII
naturally try TO buy therH in, n thus
will have to pay whatever figure de-
manded by liquidating longs or sellers
Of hedges against the actual.
There was never a time perhaps Whel
the South had better opportunity oil
showing its ability to handle a situa-
ton sensibly. There is reasonable as
of the shipping situation get
ting better at no distant date, Tor COZ
ton is almost as important to many
sections of the world as o itself and
supplies are at famine levels outside
the southern part Of the United states.
The bearish argument that conditions
following the long war make 1t unlikely
that there will be liberal buying OF
material, due to financial weakness and
the general state of unsettlement, Is
admitted to have some merit, perhaps
but is not accepted by all the trade,
particularly in the South, 1t Is con-
sidered a good talking point for the
bear side at a time when there must
be a lot Of buying Of material rn i the
thought especially true of Great Brit
ain, which will certainly not hesitate
to undertake as soon as possible 10 re-
sumo it's business of supplying cotton
goods to a large part or the world. IN
the United States there Is reason 10
think that consumption Will increase
and that the cancellation of government
orders, when they come, will be more
than offset by larger civilian needs, so
long kept as small as possible.
The holders have 80 rar handled their
task well and there seems reason Tor
thinking that they can continue 70 90
so. 1t has been denied that the federaI
reserve banks were urging selling OF
the actual, while advices from nowhere
in the belt tell of any distress signals
being raised. It was announced FRI
day In Washington that no change was
to be made in the prices mills were 70
receive for their finished product, Whlch
means that they can pay 80 cents or
better basis middling upland n sun
make big profits, This government
supervision of prices will only last for
a few months more, but it is expected
the announcement that lower prices
are not to be had will remove Of
the reasons for the hesItant attitude
among manufacturers ABOUT buying
their needs.
The weather has continued favorable
all the week, but current ideas on the
size of the cron are between 1850, 600
and / 1000, 900 bales. Statistics continue
bearish. but have been a small factor.
The notion that congestion in move
ment has seen its worst helps to OFFSET
the effect thereof.
