During 1880 Germany pur.
chased the largest amount Of its
cotton from the United States,

ranking next. From 1928 to
1880, Germany was this country'S

cotton.
Crop Prospect Better
An improvement was seen in
the Japanese crop outlook ana
the possibility of a disposal Of
silk stocks through a smaller
reduction. Large sales Of silks
to Europe and America brought
about better business situation

CURB UTILITIES
IRREGULAR

NEW YORK, Sept. "a dN.s),
Heavy profit-taking and a re.
sumption of professional short
selling influenced general irregu-
larity in today's curb market ses.
sion. In the main, however, i'm
portant declines were confined
to the run of high-priced volatile
issues which respond readily to
the changing speculative moods.
The run of active trading leaders
encountered good buying support
on a close scale-down basis, and
losses in this part of the list
were limited.
Utilities were irregularly lower.
Oils were moderately reaction
ary, with Gulf slipping ~ points
to 46 and Humble off about a
point at 81.
Great Atlantic and Pacific
Stores was the only issue to hold
up in the speciality list, moving up
212 points to 1874. On the
down side were losses of 3 points
in Aluminium to 10l, and a de,
cline of 3A points in A. o.
Smith to 74A.

In times like the present, are
advertising expenditures being
classed as unnecessary, or are
they being regarded as tndiSpen'
sable means of building present
sales and insuring future busi-
ness? Williams and Cunningham,
advertising agency, Chicago, says:
"The best answer to this
question Is to be found in the
record of how business,
throughout the country, has
backed its best judgment with
dollars, in normal times, as
well as during the present gen
eral depression.
"There is normally a close
relationship between the out
put of industry, rs measured
by factory payrOlls, and news
paper Advertising. When
chartered, the two lines run
almost parallel to each other.
The volume Of newspaper ad-
vertising is seen to drop when
industrial output falls off, and
to increase with production.
A comparison Of the trend of
these two factors, therefore, Is
striking evidence Of the atti-
tude of business toward news
paper advertising, during these
times.

NEW PAY CUTS
SEEN NEAR

Downward readjustment in the
volume of employment and in
wage rates has developed at an
increasingly rapid pace during
the current year and is typical
of the closing phases of a depres-
sion, says the Standard Statistics
Company, of New York, in a cur
rent survey of employment con-
ditions and wages, which contin,
ues. in part:
"DeflatiOn is now shifting to-
ward the more sheltered indus
tries, and additional wage cuts
are expected, especially in that
quarter. Reported industrial
wage rate decreases in the first
seven months of 1881 equaled
1874, involving about 100000
workers. Farm wages and in
come have declined even more
drastically."
Standard Statistics expresses
the opinion that. while opposition
to wage deflation still is cx-
pressed publicly, labor'S impo-
tence, under current conditions,
makes necessary a passive atti-
tude, so efforts now are concen-
trated on rationing available en-
ployment opportunities to as great
an extent as possible.

COTTON PRICES
ARE HIGHER

NEW YORK, Sept. "a 0.N.S0.
Foreign and trade buying and
short covering based on external
events rather than on any funda-
mental changes for the better
in the general cotton situation
sent prices on the important
months somewhat higher during
the forenoon trading today.
The market followed the ad"
vance, particularly when further
arbitrage buying here and selling
in Liverpool developed. Some
said that nearly all the old strad-
die accounts between this mar
ket and Liverpool had been evened
off, but there were intimationS
that the straddle operations were
being reversed. Orders to buy
here, at all events, took up the
moderate to fair a mount OF
hedges that appeared on the mar
ket.

UNDER HEAVY
SELLING
C0pperS Set New Lows When
Anaconda 0mits Dividend
And Utilities Are JoIted
By w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Sept. "a G.NSD.
Today was profit-taking day in
the stock market for the for
tunate traders and spectators
who bought stocks at the low
prices of Monday and Tuesday.
Prices dropped l to 5 points in a
long list of the shares which
scared so spectacularly yesterday,
the Sharpest declines being in a
few of the rails.
Railroad bonds we're able to
continue their advance on a
smaller scale, and cotton rose a
dollar bale.
Utilities Under Fire
The public utility stocks were
under pressure in the early after.
noon on lower estimates of net in.
comes of the lighting and power
companies for 1882. North Ameri-
can fell off points to 442 in
talrly heavy trading, Consolidated
Gas was down 4 at 1914, Public
Service of New Jersey down 2, and
Columbia Gas down /.
An advance in bankers accept
ance rates of u of 1 per cent and
an increase in time money rates
to 2 per cent were reported in con-
junction or reports that the Re
serve Bank of New York might
raise it's rediscount rate to 2 or
22 per cent after the close of
business today.
These are the most important
changes in two months in the
money market, and they fore
shadow the certainty of a greater
use Of bank credit in the near
future.
New Lows for COppers
Omission of Anaconda Copper
Company's quarterly dividend was
followed by heavy selling of the
copper stocks, most of which have
reached the lowest levels in three
years. Anaconda fell off about j
point to 1873.
With the ban on short selling
removed, the bears were reported
liberal sellers of the rail and in.
dustrial shares which led in Wed
neSday's spectacular advance. A
wave of selling in the early after
noon carried United States Steel
under 80 for a loss of 3l2 points
and American Telephone to l39,
down 5R.
