Cotton goods along all lines are at

press the hope that the peak in prices
has been reached At all events, the
effort to check demand for cotton goods
grows as governmental needs increase.
The effort is based on the adoption by
many large houses Of fhort-term selling
The latest feature in The trade was the
report that reached it yesterday 10 the

crument buying are to be co-ordinatod.
Under the ruling the Red Cross would
be given the same priority and other
privileges Among the latter will he

Interested i'm the ruling as popular
move to make the Red Cross dollar go
further than in the question OF fixing
a basis on which agents can sell 10 an
organization whose buying has been the
cause Of much needless competition. II
Is believed in some quarters that when
this action Of the war Industries Board
becomes effective it will tend to hasten
relief in the matter OF shipments to and
