nnN,s REVIEW

NEW YORK, August 3O.--R. G. Dun & Co.'S current summary of general business follows. in part:
 Further progress toward business ex- pansion has marked the month now ending, which is normally an inactive period in most commercial branches. The current trade revival is still slow and uneven, but it is the more whole some and promises to be the more last ing because of the maintenance of q conservative policy. Factors which have formed the basis for the better ment in domestic conditions, such as the strengthened financial position of the farming community and the i'm proved prospects for economic recovery in Europe, are supported by other con- structive forces that may conceiYably exert more potent influence in the future. The increase in confidence has thus far been more evident than the gain in actual transactions, yet the relatively low merchandise stocks have necessitated purchasing for replenish- ment in various instances, and more disposition is being shown by some buyers to anticipate requirements. With the more frequent ordering, both for immediate and forward needs, the re- cent trend has been toward a rise of production, in basic industries and the reaction Of cotton prices from abnor- mally high levels is making for a re- vival in New England mill eenters. The sharp curtaiIment of output in most lines during earlier months this year has brought more steadiness in prices for manufactured goods after a rather prolonged decline, but a relief exists in some markets that the low point has not yet been reached and this tends to cause the withholding of conh- tracts which might otherwise be placed. Tn contrast to the movement in the six immediately preceding weeks, when ad- vances largely predominated, Dun's list of wholesale quotations this week

GRAIN ACTIVITY
 AT STANDSTILL Speculative Interest At Low Ebb During Most Of Session

CHICAGO, August 30.--Inactivity and easiness ruled the grain pits today, speculative interests being at low ebb during the greater part of the session, which took on the character of a pre- holiday. Toward the finish trade pick ed up with considerable evening up be- cause of the Monday holiday. At the finish wheat was k to 11sc lower, with September. $1.23N Q1.2S%, and Deeem- Der, $1.2sK @1.2SN; corn gained 1M to kc; oats lost M to Ac, and provisions varied from 10c decline to 200 advance.
 The signing of the Dawes plan by Germany and the other interested pow CTS. together with the strength in Liver pool quotations, failed to give the wheat market the strong tone here which had been looked for by bull traders. The market, however, showed fairly firm undertone moving within relatively nsrrow limits, but slightly lower. A liberal export business was said to have been put through, and this resulted in some fairly good buying, which brought about a quick rally after the early break Toward the finish there was considerable evennig up for over Monday.
 Corn averaged lower with numerous stop loss orders uncovered on the de- cline. A good class of buying followed the early break, however, and with balancing up of accounts for over the holiday, the market displayed consid- erable rallying power. The hot wave in the west was reported broken and scat tered rains were said to have occurred | in Nebraska.
 Oats were lower with corn, but ran Into some good buying on the dip and (recoVered well. Y Provisions were firrner on the for Sn news and with the strength in

COTTON REACTS
 AFTER ADVANCE Declines Are Attributed To Southern Selling
 And Realizing

NEW YORK, August BOA moder- ate early advance was followed by de- clines in the cotton market today as a result of southern selling and realiz- ing. December contracts sold off from 249Tc to 24.34c and closed at 24.S5c, the general market closing easy at net de- clines of 27 to 47 points.
 The market opened at a decline of s to 16 points under realizing by recent buyers, but soon strengthened on fur ther covering promoted by apprehen- sions that the tropical storm might as- sume threatening proportions over the weekend and continued reports of crop deterioration. Active months sold about 19 to 30 points net higher before this demand was supplied, October ad- vancing to ASSOC and January to 24.95c. creased slightly with southern selling here accompanied by reiterated reports of an casing spot basis. Considerable profit taking also was promoted by re- ports of rains in Georgia, with lower temperatures in the southwest. Other wise selling was held in check by con etinued uncertainty as to the further course of the tropical disturbance but prices worked off to 2464c for October and 24,30c for January in the late trad ing, or about 40 to 47 points net lower. General business was quiet enough to suggest that the, market had previous ly pretty we'll eVened up for over Labor Day. A private crop report placing the condition at 59.9 and the indicated yield at F, 900 bales attracted con <ra- lively little comment but may havs \c- counted for some of the early cover \ in connection with reports from Ma.
 chester that cotton goods trade pros, poets were the best in four years.
 The amount of cotton on shipboard awaiting clearince was estimated at 70,7O3 bales, against S4,966 last year.

STOCKS DISPLAY GREAT STRENGTH Public Interest Revives And Bears Are Active
 Sellers

NEW YORK, August 3o.-Stock prices gave an impressive demonstration of strength In today's brief session of the market. Gernany's acceptance of the Dawes report. coupled with increasing indications of trade recovery, helped to revive flagging public interest and stimulated covering by bear traders, whose active selling, particularly of in- dustrial specialties, had contributed largely to the decline of the last two weeks.
 Buying spread over a broad list which was rather unusual for a pre- holiday session, and several large blocks of stocks changed hands in the two hours of trading. Absence of many i operators over the Labor Day holiday resulted in an unusually heavy bust ness being done over commission heads and private wires.
 United States, Steel again proved the L beIl-weather of the market, climbing I more than point to 109A. American Can spurted more than 3 points on what l appeared to be buying for the short I interest. Baldwin closed 1A points higher at 125 and Studebaker improved fractionally.
 Exactly one dozen issues established new peak prices for the year. They were Maxwell Motors "A" and "B, Pierce-Arrow prior preferred, Texas Gulf Sulphur, Associated Dry Goods Unified States Cast Iron Pipe, Cush- ! mans bakery, St. Louis, San Francisco coIinon and Fleischmann. Union Bag E and Paper sank to a new low. at AZ offs1H.
 Other industrial strong spots included American Smelling, Congoleum, Dupont Cuban Dominican Sugar preferred Maracaibo oil, National Enameling National Lead, Railway Steel Spring Stfofnberg Carburetor, United States Smelling and Wilson and company pre- ferred all up points or more,
 Rails did not participate in the ad' vance as much as the industrials, al though Missouri Pacific preferred and 4 PePa Marquette each closed points 4 hi6her, vile Southern Pacific, Rock Is- land, Erie, New York Central Northern Pacific and Great Northern preferred were among the stocks to close point or smore higher. Jersey Central broke 5%s points on sale. Foreign exchanges turned slightly re- actionary. Demand sterling again fell below $450 and French francs sagged about 5 points to 5.43 cents. The Cana dian dollar was again quoted at a slight I premium in further reflection of the flow of surplus funds for investment across the border.

NEW ORLEANs COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, August 30.-The cotton market developed a fair degree of activity today for short Satur- day session. The trading was largely of an evening up character in advance of the double holiday and the fact that, although American markets will be closed Monday for the Labor Day holi- day, Liverpool will be open on that day as usual Fluctuations were frequent and broad. After opening few points down and declining to 24.22c for Octo- Der and 24.34c for December or 10 points under the finals of yesterday, the mar ket advanced on liberal buying and short covering, October being forced up to 24.75e, December to 24.70c and Jan uary to 24.75c, or 33 to 36 points above the earlier lows. The market then turn ed easy and declined on profit taking end selling in anticipation 'of liberal selling orders of hedges over the holt- days. October dropped to 23.96c, De- cember to 24.0Sc and, January to 241Sc, or 57 to 62 points down from the day 8 highs. The close was near the bottom showing net losses for the day of 33 to S6 points.
 Although many reports of rapid de- terioration of the. crop continued to come in and a New York authority is- sued an estimate of only 12,10Q,000 bales, based on a condition of 59.9, which was largely responsible for the early ad- vance of the double holiday. Early pny- CTS saw an opportunity to take protlts and longs generally took advantage of the early bulge to liQuidate.
 Owing to the increasing movement 1t is anticipated that considerable hedge selling orders will accumulate over the holidays and traders feared that the Liverpool market would decline whlIe American markets are closed on Mon- day., As a result there was burst of selling in the second hour of trading and all the early gain was lost and considerably more besides.
 The tropical storm was at last re- ports north of Porto Rico, moving rath- er slowly northwestward.
