PRICES
GAIN LITTLE

NEW YORK, April II U.N.S)
At the opening of the cotton mar
ket today, New York futures failed
to advance in the near crop
months, but prices on the new
crop were higher. AS the fore
noon progressed, prices advanced
slightly. The technical position
of the market was an influence
as was the approach of the three
day holiday.
The weather map was con-
sidered favorable, showing further
scattered rains in the Southwest
which were benficial. but were
largely outside the extreme dry
area. The weekly report was ex-
ceptionally favorable aside from
the lack of moisture in the South
west, and the lack of more ade-
quate relief in this section served
to attract increased buying in
the new crop.
The New York cotton market.
just before noon, became fairly
active, due to trade buying OF
old crop, commission house de-
noand for new crop, and covering,
probably influenced by the cold,
dry weather in western Texas and
Oklahoma. Midday futures were
steady with May at 1905, July
at 1915, october old, at 15.41,
october new at 1913, December
old at 1856, December new at
1888.
