COTTON IS Firm
AFTER EARLY SAG
Uncertainty Over Coming
Crop Prospects Principal
Factor in Trading.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 3.--The cot
ton market again appeared to be DOM
mated by uncertainty as to the COM
ing crop prospect during the greater
part of today's trading. and reactions
from an opening advance were fol-
lowed by renewed firmness. Decem-
Der contracts, after selling of from
1917 to 1908, advanced to 1925 and
closed at 1924, with the general mar
ket closing firm at net advances Of 10
to IA points.
The opening was steady at an ad-
vance Of to 10 points on reports OF
continued hot weather In the South,
but the market soon eaSed under week
end realizing. There may have been
some local and New Orleans selling,
promoted by the outlook for cloudy
weather with possible showers In
Northwest Texas, as well as profit-tak-
ing and the market was rather unset
tied during the early trading. October
eased OF to 1881 and March to 1921,
making net declines Of about 2 to
points on the general list, but offerings
were absorbed by covering and trade
buying on a scale down.
This steadied the market, while
there seemed to be comparatively few
contracts for sale after the early pres.
sure had run its course, and the prices
f1rmed up again in the late trading on
renewed covering. October sold up to
1899 and March to $40, making new
highs for the day, in the late trading
and recoVeries OF about II to 20 points
from the low levels Of the morning.
Business was comparatively quiet
during the. entire morning, with the
market sensitive to orders, but there
was a little more activity during the
last half hour. The ofacial forecast was
for showers in West and North por-
tions of West Texas and for showers
in Oklahoma, with lower temperatures,
which was considered favorable. Pri-
vate reports Of deterioration and weevil
activity or damage continued to reach
the trade from scattering points In the
South, however, and there was evi-
IDENTIFY a disposition to. even up COM
mitments in advance Of the private and
Official crop figures expected during
the coming week. Owing to the holiday
there were no cables from Liverpool.
The market there will also be closed on
Monday, reopening for business on
Tuesday morning. The amount Of
cotton on shipboard awaiting clear
ance at the end Of the week was esti-
mated at about $4,000 bales, against
10000 last year. --.

have fuifilled all Of their obligations to
their holders. There are, Of course,
some $50 to ITS stocks that exhausted
themselves rather early in the bull
campaign and which now figure In
| weekly lists Of "new low records" It Is
fortunate that the stocks that have the
largest following have merit behind
them, for even. If they decline sharply
later on, their owners VII have title
no need to worry.
Investing Practices Change.
An epochal article has appeared this
week under the sponsorship OF John j.
Raskob. It will have the effect of
supporting conclusions that an army
Of American investors had already
reached from their experiences with
common stocks. Mr.. RaSkob tells how a
SOS, 900 investment related to General
Motors In 1928 Is today worth 81 ,000,-
600 Most significant of all, he de-
stroys accepted ideas of thrift and OF
steady accumulation of wealth through
deposits in savings banks and by pur-
chase of bonds.
There is a revolution going on rather
openly among small and large Amer
lean capitalists which will deeply eff
feet the traditions and practices of in
vesting it. That Is why it is just as
difficult today to determine whether
high-grade bonds are still high in price,
although at the lowest average in
several years. as 1t is to establish sound
arguments for selling common stocks
when they yield practically nothing
and when money rates yield so much.
Many have doubled and trebled in
market value since the time when con-
servative bankers throughout the coun-
try transferred all Of their securities
into cash and felt that they had done
wisely and could henceforth sleep
nights.
