In addition to this. there has been a

cash market has shown more strength
than the deferred deliveries. Exporters
seem to have retired from the market,
not being willing TO compete with the

going on.
Large manufacturers OF mems clothing
here and in other eastern cities have an
nounced a curtailed production due to
the small number of orders for fall de-

the weather. However, there Is some
strength in the immediate cash situation
which will help shape the course of
