. As for the future, there is no
assurance of any broad advancing
tendency while general business
and stocks are rounding out the
balance of the decline begun last
spring. To be sure, this may not
mean materially lower levels in the
stock market, but until the decline
has spent its force and a broad ad-
vance is in prospect, there is no ar
gament for purchase of any specific
groups. The chances involved in
trying TO work against the trend are
too great. Textiles will probably
be profitable purchase when cot,
ton and other commodities stabilize
at levels which give some assurance
of being maintained and when the
fear of increased competition from
abroad has been either fully realiz-
ed or dissipatcd. But that time is
not the present.

buy there should be included in

WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass,
Nov. l9.-The recent drop in certain
textile securities has led many in
vcstors to believe that unseen fac.
tors were at work within the indus
try. Roger w. Babson's analysis
summarized in a statement today
pretty we'll accounts for the dcvel-
opmcnt.
Conditions in both the cotton
goods and worsted and woolen goods
Industries are Irregular. and unset
tied" says the statisticiqns - The
fundamental reason for this is
largely the fact that prices Of these
goods are relatively much. higher
than most other kinds of. articles.
When business men in any line feel
that the price structure is beginning
to get top-heavy, there is likely to
be considerable caution exercised
regarding the purchase Of ra5S ma-
terials, the manufacture of thes2
high-priced materials into furnished
goods and the buying CT gpafs for
retail distribution. This IS the case
now in both cotton and woolen and
worsted goods, especially men s
wear lines. Curtailment of produc-
ton is in progress.
'TAc cotton goods industry be-
gan this fall with a fairly good sup
ply OF orders taken during the lase
summer. Production was good dur
ilg September, especially among
southern mills. During October,
however, Il tendency to increase the
price Of cotton goods in line with
the advancing price Of raw cotton
brought about renewed resistance on
the part of buyers. As q result,
many mills in both the North and
South are going on part time. .
Supply is Low
Whether or not the recent gov-
crnmcnt report, wherein this year s
cotton crop is estimated about 49,
250,G00 bales as compared with n
average of 100000 during the pre-
vious three years, and of l2,3O0,O00
during the three years previous
thereto, will result in frcer buying
of cotton goods, time alone will
show. There is much evidence pre-,
scnted to show that both the Amer
lean and the worlds supply of cot,
ton is very low compared to the
need for cotton goods. Buyers,
however, argue that conditions are
