Many Articles Shown Here by
Manufacturers

Hairpins and rubber tires, Christmas
tree ornaments and Oriental rugs are
but a few OF the many articles OF
merchandise displayed in the sixth
semi-annual exhibition of the Popular
Price Merchandise Association, which
opened yesterday in the ballroom of
the Hotel Commodore The exhibit will
continue through to March l.
About 100 manufacturers OF various
lines Of merchandise are represented
at the exhibition. While more manu-
facturers have booths at the exhibit
this year than ever before, candy makers
and manufacturers of apparel are lack
ing. The candy manufacturers say that
they have sufficient orders on their
books TO keep them running at capacity
without the necessity of going after
new business. No explanation could
be found for the absence of the ap-
parel manufacturers among the ex-
hibitors. There is a small showing of
womens waists, underwear and sweat
ers by different firms.

In d u s trial
Cotton

The temperance of Southern sell
ing orders in the cotton market yes
terday seemed to be the signal for
general liquidation and aggressive
pressure from local sources The
March delivery was particularly weak,
selling off from 1922 to 1925, and
closing. at 22.3S, or 72 points net lower,
while later months showed rallies of
some 20 to 35 points, with the general
list closing steady at net decline of
33 to 72 points.
Reports of increasing curtailment
among the Southern mills and of un-
favorable political conditions in Eng
land were factors contributing to the
decline. The continuance of Southern
selling suggested that low grades were
seeking an outlet notwithstanding
the extraordinary discounts. A
good deal of this selling was in the
near month, which probably stimulat-
ed the disposition to liquidate long
contracts in advance of possible no.
May buying orders here. 1t was the
first March notice day in the New Or
leans market, and according to private
advices there were no tenders there.
Exports for the day were 46,701
bales, making 2,970,262 so far this
season against 27s1 1893 last year.
Southern spot markets as officially
reported were 25 points higher to so
points lower, with rather better
volume of business, particularly at
Houston, where 5,422 bales were sold
at decline of 30 points to 1925 for
middling.
The local market for spot cotton
was quiet and Is points lower a.
$500 for middling upland, compared
with 26.65 on Friday and 31.95 tho
year before.

Produce Exchange
Opposes Wheat Bill
Wants 1919 Crop Marketed in
Usual Way, With No
Price Control

a plan to market the 1910 wheat
crop Of the United States through the
usual commercial channels under
which prices would be regulated by the
s-.- ,.-...es---, - ~. 4.J'--.
by 90 e'e" York Produce Excnange IN
letter which the organization's
presI,q,en,t, Edward Flash, jr has sent
to all the members of the United
States Senate. This action was taken
to oppose the passage of the Wheat
bill, which has already been passed by
the House of Representatives.
The plan proposed by the Produce
Exchange is, in effect, to require every
grower of wheat to make affidavit Of
his acreage, the threshing return per
acre and the amount of bushels upon
which he intends to claim benefit Of
the government guarantee. In each
market named in the Presidential proc
lamation a trade committee, contain
ing government representative, shall
determine and publish each business
day an average market settlement
price for the basic grade; the differ
ence between such daily published
price and the governments guarantee
figure to be the settlement difference
for any wheat tributary to the various
markets involved
In this way, the Produce Exchange
believes, the laws guarantee would be
made good to the grower, who would
be left at absolute liberty of action as
to when, where and to whom he shall
sell his wheat, while the consume
would not be subject to prices which,
in effect, represent practically a gov
ernment corner in commodity af-
fectlng a large portion of the worlds
population.
