PRESSURE PRUNES
!! COTTON II POINTS
Weakness in Liverpool Starts
Local Futures Market on

Further active liquidation and new
speculative selling was encountered In
yesterdays cotton market. which broke
about SO to ~ points under Saturdays
closing prices late in the day and ended
weak and unsettled around its lowest
level Much pressure encountered yes
rerday undoubtedly was caused by the
proximity of the Government ginning
report, due to-day. There was the pos
stbllity that this report would indicate
a crop greater than looked for. Some
operators have been of the opinion that
the crop may be close to 10000, 600
bales.
The early selling movement really
was started by the weakness of Liver
pool Cables were decidedly lower than
expected. Instead of opening 4 to 8
higher, Liverpool futures opened to
lower and later turned weak. Spot bus
tness abroad continued slow only 5000
bales changing hands yesterday. De-
cember was relatively weak even at the
outset, rejecting liquidation before first
notice day next Friday, and the ten
dency of many longs to transfer COM
nitments to later positions.
At first mill demand ana profit taking
from shorts furnished the market with
rallying power on the break but even
this support was not sufficient to hold
the list late in the day. when local op-
orators were general sellers. The trade
seemed to anticipate another weak mar
ket in Liverpool to-day. Manchester
ca bles were far from constructive. Re-
duced demand from India and China
has led to serious consideration of half
time operations. In the South demand

active
The local spot market was quoted 90
points lower at 2505 for middling. De-
livery on contract was 500 bales. The
New Orleans market was 20 points low
er at 25 cents. It's sales were 1O2 bales.

every county in the state which the

That the proposal is feasible. is in
dicated by the fact that from

the Rotarian 80 yard line and by a
