NEW YORK, August 22.-Sales of
steel for prompt or nearby delivery
during the week continued to indicate
steady expansion in business and pro-
duction has been increased to meet the
demand. The market presents a
rather healthy appearance, although
there has been very little buying for
forward shipment. Prices We're ir-
regular, in some cases showing mod
crate losses. Pig iron was generally
quiet. with sales principally of small
lots and prices unchanged.
Copper firm. 1t is believed that
most OF the larger domestic consum-
ers have covered their requirements
Tor September and October, also part
of November, but recent small offer
ings at slight concessions were readily
absorbed and the market showed in-
creasing strength toward the end of
the week. with some business reported
at new high prices for the movement.
Evidently the further reduction in the
stocks of refined during July increased
confidence in values and in some
cases asking prices were advanced
10 the 15-cent level at the end of the
week.
Tin was moderately lower, in sym
pathy with London, but later steadied.
Although spot straights were scarce.
consumers have shown little buying
interest, as they are receiving metal
freely on old contracts.
Lead ruled firm, with good gen
eral inquiry for September-October
delivery. Prompt metal continues
scarce, although most smelters are
operating at capacity.
Zinc was firmer, with a moderate
domestic consuming inquiry, while
offerings from producers were not ag-
gressiye.
Anthony was quiet, with spot
prices a shade lower, but the recent
firmness in the Chinese market has
tended to restrict offerings locally and
"A steadier tone prevailed at the close
of the week.

sy the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, August 22.-The cot
ton market was quqiet again today,
with traders evidently waiting for
Mondays Government report. De-
cember contracts were traded in at
prices ranging from 1852 to 23.70 and
closed at 1858. with the general mar
ket closing net unchanged to points
higher.
The opening was steady at an ad-
vance of 8 to 9 points and the active
positions sold about to IL points
net higher during the early trading,
with October selling up to 23.46 and
January to 23.21. Buying was pgo-
NOTED by relatively steady Liverpool
cables. more favorable adyices from
Manchester and continued appre-
tensions of crop damage reports from
the Eastern belt.
In addition to covering, some trade
buying was reported, but there was
enough for sale to check the advance
and prices eased later on private re-
ports of showers in north Texas and
the lower temperatures In the belt.
October sold off to 23.37 and January
to 23.13 and the close was within
point or two of the lowest.
Some buying was promoted by the
outlook for dry and warmer weather
following the lower temperatures of
yesterday and last night, but general
business was restricted and the
market acted as if accounts had been
pretty we'll evened up in preparation
for Mondays Government crop re-
port.
Another private report estimated a
condition of 81 and an indicated yield
Of 14,450,000 bales. but this was
nearly enough in line with previous
estimates to have comparatively little
effect on sentiment.
Manchester cables said that spin
ners in the Bolton district had voted
to reject the recommendation of

Trade advices from Liverpool said
the market there had been advanced

Summer Daylight Reception Certain.

The success of radio communica-
ton between the Navy Macmillan ex-
pedition and the United States during
the time when the ships are in the
area of continual daylight seems as
sured now that long-distance, short
wave messages have been easily han
died each way in daylight.
A. A. Collins, owner of station
9CXX, in Cedar Rapids. Iowa. has
carried out two-way communication
with the expedition. Station WNP
Of the Bowdoin, operated by John L.
Reinartz, principal proponent of the
daylight short-wave theories, first es-
tablished communication with the
Cedar Rapids station on a wave
length of Is meters. The Collins sta
ton worked on 20 meters.
All of the work was carried on in
Evening star., 1925-08-23

r1idafternoon at a time when the
Bowdoin was well inside the line of
continual Summer daylight. The ease
with which the communication was
accomplished would seem to indicate
that this years expedition will not
encounter any of the troubles that
beset the 1923-1924 cruise.
As another Indication of the re-
liability of the short.wave work, Rein.
artz, in the course of his conversation
with Collins, reported that he had
been able to log a number of Amer
ican stations working on the 20meter
band.
