CARRIERS HELPING

Some Cut Fares, Others
Campaign for Business
During Slack Hours.

neciaI Disnatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to Inc star.
NEW YORK, December 1.--Busi-
ness men all over the Nation are
using every effort today to encourage
the snirlt of Christmas, not from SEN
timent. but as a sound, solid business
asset. This move is especially actlVe
in the public utility companies, nota'
bly, the common carriers.
Thousands of street railway men
were instructed today to cultivate the
Christmas spirit. to show courtesy
and forbearance with holiday shop
ming crowds, TO use every effort to aid
MESSENGERS burdened with bundles and
to make traffic as speedy and sa1e as
possible.
Merchants Of every type are aiding
the traction companies in these ell
forts. They realize what beneflt can
accrue to them from safe ana speedy
handling of shopping crowds and
what a check to sales traffic conges-
tion can prove. Merchants in various
sections are divided as to the advan-
tages of allowing parking of automo-
biles in shopping districts, but all are
anxious to have the crowds make
their way to the stores as promptly
and safely as possible.
EraIIC NOUScStfou at "VaS@
Traffic congestion today Is worse
than it has ever been in the history
of this country. Police regulations
have not proved thoroughly satisfac-
tory. and the transportation COM
panies and merchants are turning
toward individual effort by transporta-
ton workers.
The instructions given by the Phil
adelphia Rapid Transit Co, operating
street cars, busses and taxis, are typi-
cal. These say: "It is a time OF frayed
nerves and sorely tried patience on
the part of the riding public. The
company appeals to every employe to
be especially watchful of the public
need, tolerant of the criticism Of our
riders and vigilant in the battle we
must wage against adverse weather
and countless interruptions to traffic" !"
The transportation men and mer-
chants are making a strong country
wide appeal to the public to shop be-
tween 10 am. and 4 pm. AT that
time the load on the transportation
systems is lowest. The volume of
business in the stores also is lower
than before or after these hours, es-
pecially in the holiday season.
In some cities, the transportation
companies are carrying passengers in

RANGE IS NARROW
IN COTTON MARKET
Early Gains on Trade Buying
Wiped Out by Bear
Dealings.
Rr tho Assnciated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 1.-The cot
ton market opened steady today at a
decline of points to an advance of
points. A little selling on the easier
showing of Liverpool was absorbed
by continuation of the covering noted
on the rallies yesterday, while there
also seemed to be some trade buying.
The market showed net advances OF
7 to 10 points shortly after the open
ing, but demand was less active than
yesterday and prices eased back TO
within a point or two of yesterdays
closing figures by the end of the first
hour under realizing Of renewed liqui-
dating.
A private crop report placed the
yield at 1880 900 bales. compared
with an end-October report of 1860
900 bales.
Private cables said some continental
and Bombay buying in Liverpool on
expectations of bullish crop estimates
had been supplied by London and
Manchester liquidation.
Offerings attracted by the early ad-
vance proved sufficient to carry prices
tations, but the market firmed up
again on renewed covering and trade
buying. January advanced from 1907
to 1928. making net gains of about 8
to 13 points on the active positions,
and prices were within a point or two
of the best at midday. Another pri-
vate crop report was published plac-
ing the yield at 12.S36,00 bales.

to-4 period for less than the regular
fare. In one great Pacific Coast cen.
ter, the fare has been cut during
those hours from 10 to s cents. In
many others the fare has been reduc-
ed from and s to cents.
Many Charge Accounts Added.
In the last year there have been
hundreds of thousands of charge ac-
counts added to the books of the de-
par tment stores. Possessors of these
accounts have fallen into the habit of
having goods delivered instead of car
rying them home personally. This
has added to street traffic congestion.
Many stores are experimenting with
night deliveries where such are pos
sible. At least. they are carrying
their mail and freight and express
