PROFITS IN COTTON
HINGE ON ACREAGE

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 8.--The cotton
growers of the United States, whether
they know it or not, are now Tipping
a coin to determine whether they will
make $3.50, 100000 or lose that amount.
The brightest minds in the cotton in
dustry say the answer lies in the hands
of the planters themselves. The way
they settle it will affect the price of
every cotton garment worn in this
country, as we'll as all the cotton yard
age used for industrial purposes.
According to the experts. it Is all a
question of acreage. If the planters
hold the acreage planted to last years
total or below it, they have an excellent
chance to obtain price ranging from
20 to Is cents pound for their raw
staple. That means profit to the cot
ton districts. This prediction comes
as the result of an exhaustive study
Of supply and requirements.
There is every probability that the
carry-over at the end of the 1928-29
crop year on July 81 will be 10000
is now proceeding on a basis which
leads statiSticianS to believe that the
seasons total will be about $500, 900
bales of lint cotton. This indicates
the absolute necessity of crop which
will approximate 15,500000 bales to
supply the demand of the spinners of
the world and at the same time avoid
the necessity of reducing surplus stocks
below the danger line.
Practically all the Statisticians agree
that the stocks Of American cotton at
the end Of the season, before the new
crop is available, will approximate
100000 bales of 500 pounds each.

In call money rates from IS to 6 per
cent ana the reduction In brokers loans.
In contradiction to these bullish In
dications came the renewed warning
by the Reserve Board that II brokers'
loans by member banks were not cur
tailed stu further, the Federal Re-
serve SYSTEM may adopt other means
OF influencing the situation" The bull
move That was under way in the oils
was abruptly halted by the Attorney
Generals statement that the Oil Con-
seryation Board could not grant the
OIL producers immunity from the Sher-
man act If they do carry through their
plans to curtail oil production. Although
later the producers announced their
intention Of continuing their curtail-
ment program anyway, the oil stocks
lost much Of the vitality they had
shown earlier in the week
A large majority Of the stocks listed
on the New York Stock Exchange
showed at least moderate losses for the
week. Even the oils, many of which
made new highs on Tuesday, fell back
by the end of the week to register a
net loss. While there were many indi-
vidual issues scattered throughout the
list which advanced, except for the ex-
press stocks and the steels, there was
no group which showed substantial
gain. On the other hand, many recent
favorites, such as the coppers and
utilities, registered stable losses for the
week. Prices on the Curb and local
stock exchanges also showed net loss
for most stocks last week.

Lighting the Airport.

The dangerous possibilities Of fog at
the airport landing place is reported
to have been successfully overcome by
a new system of lighting recently in
stalled experimentally at the munich
pal airport at Cleveland. Incorporated
in the design of this multi-light unit
are several principles of lighting, each
distinct aid to night pilots. 1t pro-
vides a fan of light which, when ro-
tated, reaches the pilot at any angle
at which he may approach the field.
One-half of this fan of light is white
and the other half red. The rotation
produces alternate red and white flash
es which instantly attract the pilots
attention and enable him to identify
the airport from brightly lighted parks,
railroad yards and streets. The high
intensity beams are projected by the
lower, drum-shaped units, of which
there are four-two red and two clear
identical in design with those used to
mark anyways. The upper units, set
to project a less intense beam Of light
at higher angles, are standard, narrow
beam, fioodlight projectors.

much wider margin than ever before.
Formerly one man would carry 500
shares of stock on a 10-point margin.
Today it is more likely that those 800
shares are being carried by three men
each with 100 shares on 30-point
margin. The average trader Of today
not only carries wider margins so
that he will not be so readily forced
to liquidate his stock, but he Is much
more inclined than the early, speculator
to hold stock for the long pull.
AS result, the market becomes very
duh whenever prices decline slightly
and remains dull until buying power
enters the market to send prices back
to approximately the old highs.
The wearing process continues. the
market rises slightly, declines slightly
and rises again, until many traders
become Sorely tried. But patience is
one of the essentials of successful
trading and investing. The success
with which trader keeps the profits
he may already have gained on his
securities depends upon his ability to
keep himself in an impregnable finan-
cial position in such periods of uncer-
tainty as we are now experiencing.
Last weeks total volume of trading
was decidedly below that of the week
before and regardless of whether stocks
were rising or falling, the trading never
acquired the aggressiveness necessary

Salmon's Jumping Record.

The salmon, like some other mem
bers of the fish family, returns to the
stream of its birth to spawn, after
which they die. The salmon often
meets almost unsurmountable obstacles
in its course toward the spawning
ground. High waterfalls may inter-
vene. Here Is where the salmon shows
its superiority over most other fishes.
Salmon will ascend waterfalls of con-
siderable height. They have been
known to make vertical leaps Of 5 or
6 feet. These are not uncommon, al
though one may easily realize that con-
siderable effort Is required on the part
of fish to accomplish this. What
is regarded as the record leap by any
fish is one which is backed up by a
photograph which a persistent snap
shooter secured after hours of patient
watching. The picture he succeeded in
getting shows royal chinook salmon
leaping over a waterfall in the Will
lanlette River, near Oregon City, Greg.
This specimen made leap horizontal
and vertical-of 14l2 feet by actual
measurement.

FORD STOCKS LEAD
IN CURB DEALINGS
Few Issues Sell Higher-Utii.
tiles and Copper Shares
Lower.
BY HARRY H. BECKER.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 8.-Quiet trading
and irregular price changes character
lied today'S session on the Curb Ex-
change. Except for renewed excitement
in the Ford Motor of Canada shares,
the session was one of the most unin-
teresting this year. Business appeared
to be entirely professional.
Speculative interest converged largely
on the Ford stocks, which advanced
violently. The new voting B opened at
100 and after losing half of the 90
point gain over Saturdays final level,
climbed steadily well above the first fig
ure. 1t appeared that those traders who
sold it when it was first listed, on the
assumption that it was non-voting GER
tif1cates, were having a difficult time
to cover because of the relatively small
floating supply. The old certificates
advanced we'll above $12 share. The
rest of the group was unaffected.
The advancing tendency, in fact, was
confined to almost a handful of issues.
Some success on the up side was ac-
complished in Imperial Oil of Canada,
Tri-Continental Corporation, BendiX and
Wright Aero new, all selling at new high
prices for the year. The gains were
subsequently modified by profit taking.
merchandising and strictly industrial
shares drifted lower. largely because
speculative incentive was lacking. THE
principal selling was witnessed i'll the
! metal division and was influenced by
beariSh statistical reviews of the in
dustry and predictions that the adj
vance in the price of copper had been
definitely checked. Newmont lost turth-
er ground, due to the depreciation in
the market value of the copper Secur-
titles it owns.
While there were spurtS of activity
in the utility issues, no improvement
in price was witnessed. International
Telephone, Electric Bond, the American
Superpower issues and United Gas I'M
provement f1uctuated aimlessly, while
American Foreign Power warrants lost
several points. Similar fluctuations
ruled in the aviation group and in the
investment trusts like Goldman-Sachs
and Transamerica. Among the spe-
cialties Gold Seal Electric recovered a
3-point decline, but Grigsby- Grunow
broke sharply and United States Freight
also met persistent pressure.
With the exception of Humble, oils
marked time. Some interest was revived
in United Gas on the news that a Is
month drilling program by its operating
subsidiaries in Refugio County, Tex,
has increased the proved area of their
holdings from 1000 to 1000 with addi-
tons to underground gas reserves esti-
mated at 00,000,000 cubic feet. It
now has 81 producing gas wells in the
field.

Money and Prices
Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, April 8.-As
the Juror of alleged credit imitation In
the stock market continues, signs of a
possible danger of general defiation are
not lacking. Last weeks decline in COM
modify price levels was insufficient to
cause concern of itself, but was broad
enough to raise question as to whether
a downward price trend is appearing.
Interest rates on money continue
strong: The relatively low Federal Re-
serve rediscount rate might contribute
to situation in which gold exports
from the United States would be large
enough to increase stringency and bring
price declines amounting to defiation,
with attendant injury to business anS
employment. Any contraction IN United
States exports resulting from the con-
templated tariff revision would tend to
increase gold exports.
|. High commercial and call loan inter-
est rates in the United States may, on
the other hand, attract sufficient gold
from Europe to cause defiationary ills
there. It is the achievement of stabil-
ity as between these two dangers with
which the Federal Reserve system has
to deal.

WHEAT PRICES GAIN
IN EARLY TRADING
Market Is Buoyant on Reports Of
Farm Relief.
Plans.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, April g. Grain prices
took decided upward swing today
after a wavering start. Buying was
associated largely with current reports
that broad plans of farm relief legis-
lation were taking definite shape rap
idly. Opening at 20 decline to 1s rise,
wheat later scored a sharp general adj
vance. Corn, oats and provisions also
were firmer, with corn starting 1s on
to "a UP and subsequently showing
gains all around.
Higher prices attained today in the
wheat market here were in the face OF
lower quotations at Liverpool. and de-
spite favorable weather conditions
throughout domestic wheat territory.
Bearish factors, however, were of suffi-
Gent influence to cause Chicago wheat
values to average lower in the early
dealings. Then the attention of traders
appeared to focus on Washington adj
vices that House and Senate committees
were planning to provide more than
$500 ,000, 900 revolving fund for opera
lions of Federal farm board with
sweeping authority to work out its own
problems. 1t also was asserted the pro-
posed legislation would permit the pur-
chase and storage Of grain in any guam
tity required in the Judgment Of
farm relief board to be established.
Reports of a widespread cold wave
in Europe tended also to lift wheat
prices today. According to dispatches
at hand. the hills of Central France
we're covered with snow and streams
again were frozen over. The amount
Of wheat on ocean passage. although
less than last week, was still consid-
erably in excess of the total year ago.
