Weekly Cotton Review
By Associated Pres.

New York, March 20.-The print cloth and convertible division of the cotton goods markets have strength ened as a consequence of purchases made by printers and converters for goods delivered as far ahead as Sep tember. Most of the business done was confined to deliveries this side of July. Sheetings are also firmer and higher following moderate sales for early delivery. It is now expected that percales and prints for fall will be priced on top levels owing to the rise rule firm and mills are we'll sold. Ginghams are unchanged and in con- stant demand for any shipment
 Jobbers report better business this week. although the improvemeyt has not been very broad. The continued bank pressure and the very much dis organized condit/ens of deliveries to and from New England mills and finish ing works continue to keep operations confined.
 A strike at Fall River has cut off production at few mills.
 Generally speaking production con tinues very fair and mills are making special efforts to make deliveries in order to hold the orders they have. I'm ports of cotton continue layger than for a long time past, while th~ export de- mand is lighter. The yarn markets have ruled steady to firm, some prices being quite as high as at any time. It is the general belief in the mar kets that when retail resumes after the winter hold-up there will be lit tie reason for looking for an yearly price concessions in primary markets. Prices current follow: Print cloths, 2S-inch, 64x64s, 16c; 64x60s, 15A c; 3s F inch, 64x64s, 24@ 25c: brown sheetings. southern standards, 29@ 30c; demims, 2.20s, 44@4Sc; prints, 21c; staple ginghams, 27he; dress ging- hams, 35 @372c.

RUMORS OF DAMAGE ID WHEAT CROP WAS

Oats Made Gains of Over a Cent, While Provisions Braced for 15c to soc
 on the Day
Ru As.onia,.a Pres,

Chicago, March Q.-Apprehension of damage to the wheat crop in the south west gave smart upturn today to the price of corn. Closing quotations were strong, 2sse to Sc net higher, with May s155A to s1.65ss, and July s1.4SA to s14s7s. Oats gained lc to Ac and provisions 15c to soc.
 Corn opened weak but soon began to rally. Free selling on the part of the commission houses was responsible for the initial declines. An opinion was prevalent that the recent advance had been overdone and that corn would no longer be profitable to feed. Talk Of a federal investigation of big upward swings in the market of late was also bearish factor. Setback today, how ever, found shorts ready to profits, and it only needed a moderate stimulus to send values kiting again.
 The incentive was supplied by re- ports that dry weather in the south west threatened the wheat crop in that section and that the forecast was fair and warmer. Weekend evening up of trades contributed to make demand unusually brisk at the last
 Strength of oats for the most part was in response to the action of corn Provisions rallied with grain. The market was easier at first, influenced more or less by accommodating stocks

New York. March 2O.-The final census ginning report for the season
 vas 11,25S,000. This was slightly
 larger than the trade had looked for-
 ward to, but was nos factor in to-
 days trading. Included in this amount
 is reported about 5S0.000 bales or snapped and bo1fy cotton. Trading.
 was active with a great deal of week
 end liquidation. Weather predictions over Sunday are for an improvement ever the entire belt. During the past few days the offerings on advances have shown an increase. which indi- cates that buyers are willing to take profits and wait for a favorable op- portunity to rebuy.

The same notice said that profits of the company for the first eigh- teen days of the current month are greater tha pany month in the his tory of the corporation. This week Middle States advanced above sT, but ran into heavy sellnig that ~ broke it under so Today it closed at S115.
 Prices of iron and steel products show no signs of reaction from the steady advance that has now been under way for many months. The average price of eight lead ing iron and steel products as compiled by Dow Jones x Co., stands at $79.I0 a gross ton, com pared with s77.60 two weeks ago. Principal advances during the past fortnight have been in steel bar plates and beams which are up 25 cents hundred pounds. The Steel Corporation continues to maintain it's old schedule of prices put into effect about a year ago.
 Heaviness in Shell Transport and Trading at d time when the rest of the market was booming has been variously explained. For instance, today it was intimated that the reason for the backa kawrdness of the issue was to be found in force sale on this side of large block for London account. The more plaus- ible eXpj%s ton, however, would seem to be that this as we'll as other international shares are un- der the influence of the develop ments in Germany, which have caused considerable depression in the London market. London ad- vices today said that Shell Trans port reported production of crude oil in 1919 at 4,223,500 tons, com pared with 100000 tons in 1918.

New York, March 2o.-After Cen eral Motors wild flight today the street heard a lot of talk about certain bear operators who had been badly punished, as the say ing is, and who are willing to say quits and settle privately. Such reports invariably follow spectac- ular upsurges in stock prices and oftentimes as not they are based on idle vaporings. In the case of General Motors, however. there is probably some truth in the story that the shorts have been severely squeezed. It is well known that the bear party had been fighting the rise in Motors ever since the stock got above 300. Today's ram pant market in the Durant issue was enough to give heart failure even to shorts with fat bank rolls. On the February break Motors fell from around 320 to 2251s. It sold at 3S9 today.
 Since the terrific slump in Mid dle States Oil stock from TIA to 2234 of a few weeks ago all sorts of rumors have been afloat regard ing the management of the com pany. One rumor to the effect that Governor Haskell planned. to re- sign as head of the company has been quite persistent. In fact it has been repeated so often as to bring out today an emphatic de- nial from the president. In a mo- tice sent out in this connection it was stated that the secretary of the company has already received from over 80 per cent of the stock holders for the annual meeting next week, which shows their approval of the management.s
