COTTON REVERSES
ITS UPWARD TREND
Professional Long Selling De
presses Futures-LOss of
25 Points at End.

The cotton market reversed its posi-
ton again yesterday under professional
long selling and eased off to the extent
OF 25 to 40 points IN the course of deal
ings, closing somewhat up from the
lowest level IL to rs points down from
Tuesdays finals The market reflected
in part the poor Liverpool cables. re-
ports that spot demand In the South had
fallen off considerably in the past few
days and the reactionary tendency Of
securities prices.
Many traders felt that the safest
policy 10 pursue was TO await the tirst
December notice day, or the final es-
timate as TO the size OF the 1922 crop.
which will be issued by the Department
OF Agriculture on December II. The
only feature of trading was the liquida-
tion of December long commitments in
anticipation OF heavy tenders and the
switching from that option into later
months.
Absence OF trade demand and selling
for Wall street long account marked the
opening call when the list showed losses
of II to 14 points. There was a brief
recovery in the first hour. in which prices
were bid up 70 within or 10 points OF
the previous finals, but the market
could not hold in face OF the amount
OF cotton offered. Liverpool futures
prices opened about az high as eX-
pected, but that market dropped quickly
later in the session under trade selling
and long liquidation. Spot business
showed little sign OF betterment, sales
continuing light.
The local market for spot cotton was
quoted 20 points lower at $3.50 cents
pound for middling. The New Or
leans market was unchanged at 25
cents pound. Its sales were 1929
bales.

NOTES
AND TRADE NEWS
Large Producer Advances Rug
and Carpet Prices by 5 P. c.,
Effective Dec. 1.

An average advance of about five per
cent, over opening prices on certain
grades OF carpets and rugs made by a
large producer was announced yester-
day to become effective December 1.
The manufacturer felt justified in adj
vancing prices because OF increased
costs of wool, jute. cotton and other
components Of rugs and carpets. The
new price list carries the announcement
that should our cost be increased by
conditions over which We have no con-
troll we will give you ten days notice OF
the advance. with the option of either
canceling your unified orders or allow
ing them TO stand at the new prices"
The r.ght to drop such patterns that
are not selling up to expectations alsd
is reserved.

Material advances In the price OF high
class ribbons are not looked for
by a leading manufacturer for several
months. 1t Is hardly likely, In his
opinion, that ribbon prices will reflect
to any appreciable extent the higher
raw silk costs this year. Most ribbon
houses, the manufacturer said, have
fairly large stocks of goods on hand
which were made up from silk pur-
chased before the rise OF raw material
prices. Manufacturers generally believe
that higher ribbon prices will be stub
bornly resisted by merchants.

committees of the allied industries OF
shoes and leather advise all members
of the industry against the hapit OF
making unfavorable comments upon
prevailing styles OF footwear was
adopted at 4 meeting held under tne
auspices Of the National Boot and shoe

turers believe that such comments are
taken too seriously and active styles
