COTTON GOODS REVIEW.

The outstanding feature In cotton
goods trading during last week was the
price revisions announced on staple and
dress ginghams by the moskeag Manu-
featuring Company the new prices being
on basis of 10h cents net for staple
einghams and 10 cents, subject to trade
discounts, on utility dress ginghams.
Those prices were lower than the trade
anticipated. although expectations OF very
low figures were generally held.
A little more business OF n general
character has been passing In odd con-
structions and widths Of print cloths and
convertibles and the anishers are be-
ginning to have more merchandise sent
10 them for handling. In the next few
days prices on percales, prints. musllns,
denims and colored cottons are ex-
neoted 10 be announced TO bring the
market 70 level Of value indicated
by the rev values on ginehams.
A substantial volume OF merchandise
has beer sold and shipped to jobbers on
memorandum. and II will be charged al
the new prices. Although there Is still
n great deal OF unscttlement and hesita-
,tion In the trade. the sentiment Is grow
.ng better steadily and many merchants
are convinced that bottom has about been
reached In the prices likely to prevail In
the next few months on staple cotton
goods
A small volume of now business Is
coming forward on printed and woven
wash fabrics for spring. Soon after the
turn OF the year II is expected that some
large plants will resume operations and

An Investment
Message


effort to carry to you this mes
sage:
Perhaps never again
will there be such bar
gains in investment Sc
curities as the market now
offers and SO we say to you
all, and this means you
scrape together all the
money you can get with
out borrowing and buy
investment securities
and buy them now."
We gave you Thursday an
example of how a bond that had
originally been sold at par and
could now be bought for 1920 Of
its face value was not only just
as safe so far as the prompt
payment of both interest and
principal were concerned but
also why it was much safer.
This letter is primarily to
urge discrimination in purchases.
While some securities have be-
come more safe, it goes without
saying that some securities have
become less safe. That is why
we are urging all Of those who
do not have a professional
knowledge of investment securi-
ties either to be guided by our
advice or to rely upon one Of
the many thoroughly reliable
houses that deal in investment
securities.
Generally speaking, we also
advise sticking strictly to invest
ment securities rather than to
speculative securities. 1t is pos
sible to secure a handsome in
come yield and the assurance of
a profit without going beyond
high class bonds and preferred
stocks. Prices have been carried
to unprecedented low levels by
the forced sales of stocks held
by those who have purchased on
margins and are unable to sup
ply additional margins in a fall
ing market. There will be
partial recovery in market price
as soon as this forced selling is
Overland we think the most of
it will be cleared up not later
than the first week in January.
Very few true investment securi-
ties are carried in these mar
gined accounts and yet their
market value is influenced by
these forced sales. AS interest
rates become normal the value
of securities will go back to
their old levels.
We do not promise that there
will be a full recovery in three
months, or even in three years,
but it is bound to occur sooner
or later, for we are bound to
have normal interest rates again.
The longer securities prices are
low the longer will be your op-
portunity to accumulate more
funds and invest them advan-
tageously. Even with invest
ments limited to strictly high
grade bonds and preferred
stocks we believe it is possible,
in addition to getting a hand
some income, also to realize a
profit of $3.50 or more.
While we solicit your patron
age, we think it highly impor-
tant that selections be made by
experienced people in whom you
have complete confidence. We
urge you ito buy, and to buy
now," and do not represent that
we are the only house that can
furnish you with good, safe Sc
curities. There are lots of bar
gains and lots of investment
houses that will serve you to the
best Of their ability, the same as
we will do. Any investments
left To our iiIdpment will he

Polish Trains Haul

Trains made up entirely OF Polish
rolling stock and manned by Polish
crews began making regular trips in
to Rumania recently to bring grain
to the new republic which suffered
terribly In crop losses last year ewing
to the Bolsheyik offensive. Rrmania

about $4,000 tons of grain month,
are now making regular trips from
