ATLANTA TO STAGE
GREAT AUTO SHOW
Will Be Forerunner of Better Business
in Motor Industry in this Section.

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 2s.-In all lines
Of business the question arises, What
will 1929 bring about?" No one can
say with certainty-but there is every
indication that a marked improvement
will come about early In the year.
AS for the automotive business,
there is logical forecast OF pro-
nounced stimulation throughout the
year, resulting in such progress as the
industry has never known. That this
condition win directly bear upon all
lines of industry is a certainty.
The motor world is facing the new
year enthusiastically and determinedly.
Never have there been such elaborate
plans among the larger manufacturers
OF the industry. The various automo-
bile shows to be held will be more ex-
pensive and lavish than ever. In At
lanta, during the week of Feb. Ills.
the Atlanta Automobile association
win stage its second annual show
known as the Great Southern Auto
mobile show. This event is to the
south what the large national shows
are to the north and the east.
Automobile men throughout the
south are determined to force re-
vival of business through the medium
of the show. Every effort is being
expended, with a lavish use Of time
and money, to assemble in Atlanta on
these dates the greatest exhibition Of
the kind ever held outside of New
York and Chicago. Motor cars of
every make and model will be dis
played, together with a comprehensive
showing of trucks, tractors and auto
motive equipment.
AS this show is held in the interest
of the motor world of the entire south,
q great attendance is expected from
every section. The show held in At
lanta last March was attended by the
motoring interests Of every southern
state, and Judging from the present
indications the attendance record will
be far exceeded during the 1929 show
Extensive features of entertainment
have been arranged, and elaborate
decorative effects planned for this ex-
hibition. More than 10000 square feet
OF display space will be utilized for
exhibit purposes in the huge munich
pal auditorium OF Atlanta. From every
standpoint. the 1929 Atlanta show
promises to eclipse all previous events
of this kind held in this section OF the !
country.

WEEKLY COTTON
REVIEW

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-The cotton
market has been weak and unsettled
during the past week with prices max
ing new low ground for the movement
at the opening today. May contracts
sold at 1000. the lowest price touched
since they advanced to 22.aS early last
September and a decline of 1856 from
the high price touched at the begin
ming of this month. At this level the
market showed evidences or a ffrner
technical position and there were rail-
lies from the lowest on covering. Some
trade buying was also reported, accom-
panied by reports of steadier tone in
the southern spot market and a slight
ly better business in cotton goods.
The declines earlier in the week
We're due to reiterated reports of I'M
favorable trade conditions and appre-
tensions of increased spot liquidation
with the approach OF the planting sea-
son.
According to private advices a sharp
break in the Bombay market was due
to the collapse OF bull deal in Jan
uary contracts there and riots In
Egypt were attended by reports of a
decline in the cotton market at Alex
andria. More recent reports from Bonn
bay, however. indicated a rally fol-
lowing the liquidation of the January
bull pool holdings for the benefit of
creditors and an increased demand
from Japan.
These developments in India and
Egypt are supposed to have been part
~ responsible for unfavorable reports
from Manchester and the unsettled
showing of the future market at Liv-
erpool. There have also been reports
of labor troubles in New England mills
over reduced wages and some talk OF
mill curtailment in the south but the
latter was contingent upon the failure
OF business to improve within the
next few weeks and so far as known
domestic mill consumption is still pro-
ceeding on the recent scale. The GEN.
sus report showing 7,913,971 bales of
cotton ginned up to Jan. 16, or only
2S.093 for the last period, was regard
cd az pointing to crop slightly under
the governments estimate but had no
material influence on the market,
which was dominated by the unfavor-
able trade reports.
Toward the end of the week buyers
Of cotton goods were reported q little
more active and considerable price Ak
ing for the trade developed in the flu
lures market here on the basis OF Is
cents for May and about Is cents for
December.

DuN,S REVIEW

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Dun's to-
morrow will say:
Expansion of business, If not wholly
lacking, still develops slowly. The
coolest weather OF the winter at diff
ferent points has augmented demand
for heavy weight apparel and fuel.
yet there is a disposition now to watch
closely for gains which result from
other than purely seasonal influences.
Basic industries have held most of the
advance of recent months and IN some
instances have made further recovery
but rapid revival at manufacturing
Establishments remains the conspicu-
Gus exception. Revision OF wages or
increase of working hours to effect
lower production costs has evidently
not been completed and the expecta-
ton of railroad freight rate reductions
persists, despite the delays expert
enced. With readjustments still to be
achieved and avrious uncertainties
present, there is not unnaturally a
cautious and hesitant attitude. and
reluctance to undertake forward OPP
erations OF magnitude.
