Planning to Send
Buyers Here Early in Month
Indications of Fairly Big
Purchasing Movement in
January Is Seen: Pro-
ducers Awaiting Orders

Indications point 70 a buying move
ment Of fairly large proportions shortly
after the turn OF the year. Resident
buyers said yesterday that reports
from their clients among the retailers
IL all parts Of the country show that
most merchants are planning to send
their buyers to the market in January
At the present time fairly large num-
Der of buyers tor interior dry goods
"holosaalng establishments are in the
market placing few orders, but de-
cIarlng their intention of doing their
real buying next month.
With few exceptions manufacturers
OF textiles, garments, etc, are not pre-
parlng large stocks in advance for this
expected buying movement. AS far rs
possible, they want to book orders
against future production and delivery.
Just how the buyers will receive quota
tions for goods to be made and shipped
at later date is the basis Of some
speculation throughout the textile and
kindred markets.
Manufacturer8 are banking on the
widespread curtailment in production
TO act as q stimulating factor to new
buying. Talk of q scarcity of mercr n
04oSs which oIOppeu ny CNe way
with the large offerings Of distress,
goods during the last four or five
months, is being revived, and some OF
the trade leaders are assuring their fel-
low tradesmen and customers that the
market in various lines of merchandise
is extremely short Of desirable sup
plies.
On the other hand, most of the con-
servative wholesale sellers in this mar
l;ec are of opinion that new buying
for spring will he scaled down consid-
erably in comparison to the purchas-
ing in preparation for last spring.
The spreading unemployment, losses
through the fall in crop prices, less
money for those who draw incomes
from manufacturing plants and from
stocks have '!eel eased the purchasing
power OF the country to some extent,
it is felt.

Cotton Goods Advance
Not Expected by Trade
Increase Buying Unlikely to
Boost Prices i'll Opinion of
Optimistic Observers

Even the most optimistic cotton
goods merchants are not anticipating
any extensive price advances once buy
ing IS resumed on & normal scale Ell
1orts TO put up prices on the strength
Of rather widespread operations in the
gray or unfinished goods division of
the trade have proved truitless and
have served to check buying sharply.
The notable feature OF the gray
goods market is the growing wiling
ness Of New England mills to meet the
prices established by secondhand SELL
ers OF prices acceptable to Southern
mills. The recent shift to d lower wage
basis in New England has been re-
flected in the wider acceptance Of
some Of the low priced bids that have
come out Of the gray goods market in
the last week
oonVerters are reported TO be revis-
ing their prizes downward still further r
IN an effort to start spring buying by
Jobbers in tMe TO give the latter an
opportunity 10 send their men on the
road after january J.

comp leNing sltuatlol A late price list
cut under. on some numbers, list IS
sued 10y Il competitor q few days ago.
The first list has been revised to meet
the second. No wide response has been
felt as result of the new prices, it is
said. Commission houses that have
not announced new prices are continu-
ing the distribution Of goods on memo
