Cotton Receivers
After Sharp Drop
TONewLOw Marks
January Contracts Advance
Rapidly as Shorts Cover,
Steadying Whole List;
March Near l3.Cent Level

An early decline, establishing new
low records for most deliveries, was
followed by sharp rallies in the cotton
market yesterday. January was rela-
lively firm, selling up from 1880 to
14e3c, and closing at 1852, compared
with 14.02c at the close of the previous
day. Traders short Of January con-
tracts were evidently rendered more
uneasy by the threat Of harhor strike
here beginning on Saturday.
The few January notices so far
issued have been promptly stopped, and
with a possibility that labor troubles
will interfere with the bringing of cot
ton here from the South in time for
delivery next month shorts were evil
IDENTIFY disposed to cover and found
mparatively few contracts for sale.
Both Liverpool and local spot house
brokers were among the buyers on the
advance, which ran the price about
s. points above tic quotation for
March. The strength Of the January
position pulled up 'hc rest Of the list
ard the market closed steady at
net advance of z to so points.
Southern spot Aets. as officially
reHorted, were unchanged to &c points
higher, middling quotations ranging
from 1290c at Houston to 14.50c at
Savannah.
The local market for spot cotton
was steady and so points higher at 15c
for middling; no sales were reported.

Wheat Is Firmer
As Shorts Cover
In Light Trading
Tone Improves After Early
Decline and Prices Rally
on Stronger Technical Po-
sition; Volume Is Small

The wheat market was frmer and
prices regained most Of the losses
which had been experienced on Monday
and Tuesday, closing with net gains for
the day of SIC. Early In the session
there was decline of lac under SELL
ing owing to disappointment over the
fact that British buyers had not come
in as expected and on deliveries Of
230,C coo bushels on December contracts
IN Chicago.
From this level, however, the mar
ket gained steadily and at the close
displayed much firmer tone. The vol
ume of business was not large, and it
was the opinion of some students of
conditions that the upturn had been
the result of tirmer technical posi-
tion, which resulted in covering in
market devoid OF offers.

and buy them now"
We said in our letter Of yes
terday, MANY Of the safest Sc
curities are selling at the heavi-
est discount. There is rea-
son for this, which we will ex
plain in another letter January
2nd." This is the explanation:
We have had a long period of
abnormally high interest rates.
We used to issue SO bonds and
sell them at par. Many of the
bonds being issued now bear an
so rate. Nobody is going to
buy a 5ft bond at par if they
can get an equally safe 80
bond at par. Many investors
are taking the bonds out of
their safe deposit vaults that
they had carefully selected over
4 ter n Of years and are selling
them fer whatever they will
bring and are putting the pro-
ceeds into tax exempt securi-
ties. Tie investor who comes
in the highest surtax bracket
Of the Federal Income Tax mist
pay to the government 73 Co of
his income. He gets $4,000 in
ierest per year on his bond and
he government takes $36.50 of
It. leaving him with $3.50.
Now, if he buys q municipal
bond which is tax exempt he
gets and keeps his full $4,000.
Stated i'll another way, he can
ret as much income from
100000 tax exempt bond as
he would get from $3.7OO.OO
'nVested in corporation bonds.
The above is only one of the
many reasons why we say that
perhaps never again will we see
such investment bargains.
Now as to safety. The public
sees a bond selling at, say. 7Oeo
of its face or par value and
says, "'Nhy, it cannot be safe"
Many OF these bonds are not
only safe but safer than when
some big capitalist after care
ful INVESTIGATION bought them
at par and carried them with
pride and satisfaction to his
safe deposit vault. We have
shown III the above example
now, II he sold $4,000 of
hese bonds for S1,O0O.OO and
bought tax exempt bonds his
income would be 10 less. In
other words. if income alone
we're to be considered he could
sell his corporate bonds at 27 @
If their face value and have
.'ust as much income.
Now let us assume, simply
Tor illustration, that one block
of bonds were issued on a
tlydro-electric power plant
built before the outbreak of the
war. We will assume the plant
was originally bonded for 500
Of its cost and all of the bonds
are still outstanding. This
same plant could not now be re-
produced for double its origi-
nal cost. so these bonds only
represent % C. Of the repro
ductlon cost Of the property.
AS the bonds can now be
bought for 70c< of their face
value 1t means that the pur-
chase price paid now for the
bonds is only 17.5@c of the re-
production value. The above
IS only an example Of one tvpe
81 many safe investment bar
gains.
'.ioi ( are rare bargains
70 be had cannot be questioned.
However. there was never
greater need for discrimination
IN making purchases. We arc
confident Of being able to get

People Still
Talking About Recital

Probably q number Of people who
attended the recital given Friday
night by Miss Edith Mcdonald and
Chas. Young and Alma Robertson
at the College Chapel were at first
puzzled and disappointed when they
discovered a monograph cabinet oe-
cupying the center Of the stage.
They hardly were reassured when
Mr.. Young appeared on the stage and
commenced to talk about "Re-Crea-
tom 1t finally became apparent
that the photograph was at least to
receive assistance from the singer, but
even then the mental outlook was not
exactly bright.
Mr.. Young explained that the pur-
pose Of the recital was to illustrate
that Thomas A. Edison, after years
of work, had achieved his ideal of
perfecting a musical instrument which
would actually Re-Create music so
that the Recreation would be indis-
tinguishable from the original.
This was broad claim but it was
before the evening was
over for the artists actually stood
beside the New Edison monograph
and performed>m unison with Mr.,
Edison's -Creation-so caIled-of
their performance. This would have
proved little, as the artists might
easily have overbalanced the tone OF
the instrument--swallowed it up-so
to speak; but they did more-or, to
be accurate, less. They paused from
time to time, apparently at random
and permitted their Reiterated per-
formances to be heard alone. This
gave an opportunity to compare one
with the other, and it is no more than
just to state that there was no dis
,ernable difference in tone quality.
There must have been slight diff

ference ia volume wlen the artists
stopped singing OBJ playing but it was
not noticeable for the tone which
came from the cabinet was round and
luscious with an Of the vibrant, pull
sating quality Of that which came
directly from Miss McDonalfs throat
and the instrument Of Mr. Young. It
was only by watching the singers
lips or the violinists or cellist's bow
Tor the piano keys) that one could be
sure when they sang or played and
when they did not.
This proof was convincing. If it
were not, another proof was offered.
After Miss Mcdonald had commenced
to sing one number, the lights were
turned out--ostensibly so that the
audience could not watch the singers
lips.
1t did not seem difficult to determ-
inc in the dark when the singer sang
and when she did not. The writer
was pretty sure about It himself UNI
til the lights were turned on again
and il was discovered that Miss Me-
Donald was not on the stage at all
and that the New Edison alone had
been heard.
