Early steadiness was followed by an
unsettled market and rather q sharp
break in cotton. March contracts sold

ii 14c, compared with 14.58c, the final
quotation of last week, with the gen
eral list closing barely steady at 4 net

The chief early feature was the COW

that accounts had been pretty we'll

traders found no special incentive in

Spain, which seemed to originate in
the grain trade and may have account
Cd for some of the Western selling,

chandise.
The increased Soothern offerings,
however, seemed chiefly responsible FIR
the late break, and, generally speaking,
the news from the goods trade was

Wholesale Markets More Active
AS Retailers Prepare for Sales
Better Sentiment in
Business, Says Bank

a brighter outlook for business,
based on the indications of re-
sumption of consumer buying be-
cause of lower retail prices now
IN process of being reached, is
seen by the National Bank Of
Commerce in q statement released
yesterday.
"Sentiment respecting forward
conditions, which until lately had
been almost uniformly depressed"
says the statement, 'is now no.
ticeably improving in many dircc-
tions. This better feeling does
not go to the point of optimism,
but there is evident degree Of
confidence which was previously
lacking, in the ability of COM
merce and industry to meet the
future successfully and to conduct
business with reasonable profit.
What is now required is cour-
age and respect for fundamental
economic principles. Artificial
palliatives which are being urged
with view to obviating the diff
culties Of the adjustment par
ticularly proposals involving fur
ther initiation and cheapening of
credit-must be avoided. Such
measures, if adopted, could only
result in the impairment of the
strength Of the credit structure
and in prolonging and increasing
the difficulties Of an adjustment
which worldwide conditions have
made inevitable"
