COTTON EXCHANGES
QUIET DURING WEEK
General Business Is Restricted by
Approach Of Long Fourth
Of July Holiday.
NJ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press
NEW YORK, July 4.-The cotton
market was comparatively quiet during
the week. There was further evening
UP of the July position, but the trad
ing in the near month became much
less active after the first notice day,
and general business seemed to be re-
stricted by the approach Of q three
day adjournment for over independence
day and the week end.
At the beginning Of the week ex-
eessively high temperatures In the South
and complaints Of dry weather In some
Central and Western belt sections APP
peared to bring in some buying. This
was supplied on comparatively moderate
advances, however, while moderating
temperatures and showers or rains in
the South were reaSsuring as to crop
progress later.
Additional July notices were issued
from day to day, but for small amounts
and appeared to be readily stopped, pre-
sumably by the same interests who had
taken up cotton on the May contracts.
Circulation Of these notices led to some
further switching from near TO late
months. which, however, appeared to
be without much effect on the general
level of values.
The private end-June crop reports so
far as published UP to the close today
pointed, on the average, to a decrease
of about 3,5 per cent in acreage and To
an end-June condition Of Tia per cent,
compared with TIA per cent at the end
of June, last year. Four of these re-
ports carried figures on the indicated
crop which ranged from 14,150,00 up
10 1901 900 bales, and averaged a.
$4,000.

Special Dispatch to The Star
ALEXANDRIA, Va, July A park
and planning commission will be ap-
pointed here in the next few days, and,
with the aid Of experts, will undertake
the task OF properly planning and zon-
ing the city. At the regular meeting
OF CITY Council yesterday q resolution
was ADOPTED calling on Judge william
=. WooLS OF the Corporation Court TO
appoint the commission.
The need for this commission and
the proper zoning of the city was point
ca OUT py eouncilmen before the adop-
tlon OF the resolution, and particular
poLnt was made Of the recent petitions
Ior the establishment of business places
N RESIDENTIAL sections, particularly Rose
mont, which the proper coming of the
city would automaticall put an end to.
Due TO the fact that but three Of the
nVe councilmen were present at yester-
Gays meeting, the matter of awarding
was delayed and a special meeting was
set Tor next Wednesday afternoon,
In connection with the granting of
the new electric franchise, petition was
presented council by Col. Charles B.
Moore, OF POT Prince street, bearing a
large number of signatures, calling on
council TO demand that proper stems be
taken to correct the alleged smoke
nuisance now coming from the electric
power plant at the foot of Wolfe street
This was received and 1t was announced
that the Virginia Public Service Co
now had engineers here studying the
matter and that they were expected to
take proper steps to remedy the stu
alton.
A resolution was introduced and
passed requesting Attorney James r,
Cation, who will celebrate his fiftieth
anniversary as q member of the local
bar on July IL, to permit council to
have published in pamphlet form the
series Of articles which he has been
publishing from time TO time, entitled
"Jottings From the Annals Of Virginia

The council received the resignation
OF Arthur Herbert as q member Of the

STEEL ORDERS Off
IN THIRD QUARTER
Slump in Automobile Demand
Is Biggest Factor in
Present Conditions.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


CLEVELAND, July 4.-Steel produc-
ers enter the third quarter with no
illusions concerning the early part of it,
says Steel, formerly Iron Trade Review.
Automotive demand for steel is at the
vanishing point, with Ford closing from
July IL to %, Chevrolet down to q
three-day week and most other makers
curtailing. Railroad business on mill
books Is nil. While structural awards
are moderately good and pipe output is
excellent, these divisions Of the indus
try merely continue June levels.
July, therefore, is a month which
producers themselves concede the sooner
past the better. Partially because this
month threatens to dip so sharply, there
is some opinion that a modest rebound
will develop in August. For one thing
automotiVe manufacturers who are out
OF the market this month should be
back in a modest way next month.
Also. many consumers have permitted
their inventories to dwindle to the point
where some replenishment becomes i'm
perative.
Early Rebound Held Unlikely.
But no great hopes are predicated on
this rebound. In the frank spirit with
which it now views the situation, the
virile market without a decisive come
back in buying by the railroads and the
automotive industry. There Is nothing
now in the general situation to warrant
expectations that q general recrudes-
cence of buying power will materially
quicken these major consumers of steel
in the next few months.
While the trend of steelmaking oper-
atoms continues downward, the true
ctf lar De nka AxT TttIxy A ela,.k-
downs. Many finishing departments
will be off all week depressing this
weeks rate abnormally and resulting in
disproportionately higher one next
week, due to probable accumulation
Of orders.
Steady deterioration in the steelmak-
ing rate has more than Its counterpart
In pig iron. An estimate for June shows
a net loss Of 20 active stacks during the
June's daily rate of 1892 gross tons
was 6.3 per cent below that of May.
The June output Of 2939,172 gross tons
gave the first half total of $1,000, 278
tons, marked shrinkage from the d.
63T,537 tons of 1929, but within dis
lance Of the 1S,510,46 tons of 1928.
Pig iron buying continues light.
June Car Orders Disappointing.
When the railroads bought only 600
freight cars in June they did the small
est business since last July. For six
months of 1880 car orders approximate
10000, against 62,700 in the first half
of 1929 and $500 in 1928. Norfolk g.
Western will build 500 box cars in It's
Roanoke, Va, shops.
Steel continues in identic form the
composite market average developed
and carried along for many years by
Iron Trade Review. Weakness in pig
iron at Cleveland and nails and bars at
Pittsburgh lowers the average 10 cents
this week, to $33.34, compared with
1888 for June.
