Lower Prices
on Nash Cars
Effective July z
Effective July z

Nash prices will be reduced, effective
July End.
This conforms to our statement nude last
October that Nash prices would be main
tanned until at least July l, 1921.
The reasons were plain. Until manufac
turing costs were lower we could not cut
price without cutting value, as Nash prices
were not inflated.
We pointed out then that while the aver
age rise in the price of motor cars for a
four-year period had been rs per cent the
price of Mash cars had been raised but 81
per cent.
This 81 per cent included the addition of
cord tires as standard equipment and
many other additions and refinements
which added materially to the value of
Nash cars.
So we re-affirmed our fixed intention of
rigidly upholding the high quality of Nash
cars.

Since then every effort of the Nash organ
ization has, been conferred on effecting
sound manufacturing economies.
New labor-saving devices were added and
production practice so perfected that every
process of Nash manufacture is model
of efficiency and economy
The savings have been substantial And
they demonstrate as nothing else could
demonstrate the remarkable Nash ability
to produce fine cars at the lowest possible
cost.
Even while working production costs
downward we were improving Nash cars
still further.
Now we can announce for July z a great
er Nash value than ever at reduced pur-
chase price.
At the new prices the leadership of Nash
cars is even more emphatically apparent.

Chicago. Sept, 3. - Closing of spreads between this market and Winnepeg, selling being at this end together with considerable profit sales, exerted weakening influence on what at the board of trade here today and final prices were at the bottom with net losses of 115@1%c being shown for the day. Lowering of cash wheat premiums and the fact that export business dropped off en- tirely on yesterdays advance in prices also had an effect.

Weekly Cotton Review
By Associated Press

New York, September 2-The ac- tion of the cotton market during the past week centered on the govern ments crop report which was pre- ceded by violent reaction and fol lowed by an excited advance ir prices. The earlier week was marked by continuation of the buying movement which had been started by reports of crop deterioration toward the end of last month. When De- cember contracts, which had sold as low as 13.12c on the August reaction reached nearly the l7 cent level. how ever, there was a sudden effort by recent buyers to secure profits. This was not due to any special change in the general news but to a feeling that the technical position of the market had weakened and that low condition figure had been discount ed. There was a break of approxi- mately a cent a pound from the best before these offerings could be ab- sorbed but the market showed indi- cations of returning confidence be. fore the government report was ac- tually published and when the con- dition figures of 4ss were an.
 nounced there was rush to buy from all directions. The report was
 not more than points below the average expectation but the market acted as though the worlds trade had not fully accepted the bullisr
 private reports and that the officia figures brought the realization oi what many regard as a crop disas. ter. The condition was 6 points be- low the previous low record for Aug.
 ust 25 and pointed to crop of only 7,037 ,000 bales, the bullish effort ot which was intensified by many pri. vate reports indicating that the de. terioratiop in progress last month hac continued. The advance which fol. lowed these figures carried the mar. ket up to above the Is cent level fo,
 December and later months, making advances of between A and 5 cents per pound from the low record ot
 last June. Some southern hedge
 selling has been reached at the ad <.
 vance but the fear that cotton would be rushed on the market has mate. rially diminished owing to the ar arrangements that have been made for financing 2 slow marketing of cot ton available for export -Heayy realizing sales were also reported to- day but both Liverpool and the con tinent were active buyers here and offerings were absorbed on compar- atiyely moderate reactions.

New York. September 2.-Brad- streets tomorrow will say:
 Jobbing trade reports are much more cheerful, especially from the south and west, and this access of optimism seems to have had fairly good basis in large volume of trad ing for nearby fall account. In addi- tion, the industrial situation is re garded as having improved somew Ina t. several important cities note reduc- tion in the unemployment, there has been quiet, marked upward surge in prices of raw cotton and cotton goods, grain marketing has been free, with exports heavy, and there is & rather better trend to late crop re- ports, cotton excepted. Modifying the very generlly more cheerful trend of the majority of the weeks happen ings 1t might be noted that the stock market has continued to display in decision, foreign exchange rates have generally ruled stronger, and and the bond market has shown a little more life.

IRON AND STEEL REVIEW

Cleveland, O., September 2.-(Spe- cial.)-The Iron Trade Review today says:
 Although improvements from week to week have been scarcely notice- able, the last of August found the iron and steel market encouraging but far from satisfactory. Inquiries and sales during the past seven days have at least equaled those of the previous week.
 An advance of s1 in the price of foundry iron is the outstanding fea- ture of the weeks trading in Liz iron. No foundry is quoted at S21 valley and Chicago Furnace prices in other districts are decidedly firm CT. Improvement in volume of sales is reported in the Cincinnati and Bir- mingham markets, while in northern centers rate of buying appears to be unchanged from last week.
 Persistent shading in sheets finally resulted last Thursday in lowering prices on No. 2S black, No 2S gal vanized, No. 10 blue annealed from Sc, 4c and 2.40c to 2.75c, 3.75c and 2 25c, respectively, Pittsburg. The upward trend in pig iron prices and decline in sheets combined to lower the composite market average of the Iron Trade Review from $36 .03 to s35.5 which is the lowest level since January, 1916, when it was $33.66.
 Owing to labor difficulties in the Connellsville region, coke prices have stiffened furnace fuel now being quoted at from s3 to s3.25 ovens. It is understood that the Ford Motor company will reduce it's present schedule 10 per cent.
 Aside from inquiry for 4,500 tons for car repairs and one for 5000 tons for fabricator plate, the market is dull. Demand for shapes is slightly lighter and prices are being shaded. Inquiries for sheets, however, are appearing in increasing volume. This condition is reflected by noticeable in operations of sheet mills.
 z Japan and China continue to figure prominently in export business. American exporters have sold 400 tons of black sheets. 15,0o0 base bcxes of tin plate and 2,100 tons of eo-pound rails to Japan. Chinese buyers placed orders for 400 cars and 37 locomotives, involving about s3250,00O. Pressed Steel Car com pany has received orders for 5S steel passenger fars from the Tientsin railway.

New York, Sept. 2.-Further eNten- give reduction of the short account in the stock market today with rcsult~ ant gains of to points among lead CTS and more substantial advances in special issues.

Prices suffered a sharp set back at the outset. Mex ican Oils reacting l to 3 points on ad- vices which suggested a hitch in the negotiations now under way between the Mexican government and foreign concessionalres.
 This was offset, however, by the strength of other oils, as well as steel, equipment, motor leather, to- bacco, sugar, shippings and chemical issues, rails also throwing off their recent heaviness
 Selling for profits caused an irreg- Elsr shading of quotations in the final dealings but many substantial gains marked the close, representa- tive issues being least affected in the realizing movement.

 Trading in bonds diminished but without impairment of recent gains. Recognized domestic and foreign is sues were firm and gains prevailed in the Liberty group. Total sales par value, $9,25o00O.

HUBBARD mos, LETTER

New York. September 2.-(Special.) ) Another advance took place today following the advance in Liverpool, where that market reflected the ef- feet of the government report on the continent Fluctuations have been quite wild, and the market has given the appearance of being temporarily high enough. Such a situation is quite natural before the three day holiday, and following the very sharp advance of the past two weeks. As to the future course of prices we must expect violent reactions which may run as far as couple of cents per pound as the market becomes temporarily overbought, but in the long run we see no reason to change our opinion that prices will ulti- mately go higher.-Hubbard Bros. &.
