..Too Fast and Too Far"

Most Of the market letters that went
out Of wall Street last night advised
profit-taking on the theory that the
rise has gone altogether "too fast and
too far" The senior member Of one
Stock Exchange house said he looked
for rise that might easily carry on
for three or four weeks more. But he
thought it wise for traders not to over
play their hand. He cited the old say
ing that nobody ever went broke TAX

Dallas, Texas, Sept. pa spirit
of unyielding optimism pervades
in most sections of the Eleventh
Federal reserve district, despite
the unsettled credit situation, and
trade authorities are counting
strongly upon heavy fall busl-
ness, predicated largely upon the
outcome of the cotton crop, accord
ing to the monthly review of the
Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas,
made public today.
Excessive rains and the decline
in the cotton market in August
created for a time widespread pess-
imism among cotton growers and
not a little apprehension in BUSH

The cotton CROP it was pointed
out, will undoubtedly be smaller
than was generally expected thirty

view, it still is possible to produce
a fair sized crop II weather con-
ditions continue propitious. Since
the government report on the con-
dition of the Texas cotton crop on
August 25, when it was reported
to be seven points below the con-
dition of July 25. reports from
North and East Texas have indl-
Gated further deterioration during
