COTTON SHOWS
L|TTLEPR|CE
CHANGE

NEW YORK, Dec. % dNS0.
Trading in cotton futures con.
tinued quiet today with the list
holding around the previous
close. The cotton trade here and
abroad appears to be still more
or less under the holiday influ.
ence.
Scattered hedge and Southern
selling in small lots was offset
by routine price fixing orders
through the large spot houses.
There was fairly good demand
from the foreign and domestic
trade.
Domestic mills we're not buying
cotton in most cases, as they are
now busy with inventories, al
though one or two southern CEN
ters mentioned some business
done with a few mills.
Southern spot market reports
continue to stress the firm basis
there, despite the fact that de-
mand both for domestic mills and
for export is light.
Noon prices were unchanged
to 2 points higher, with March
up at $50, May up 2 at 6.O4,
July up l at GIT, and October
UNCHANGED at 6,34,

RALLY Of RAILS
LEADS STOCK
b. UPSN|NG
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Dec. % U.N.S0.
Aggressive buying of railroad
stocks. particularly N. Y. Central,
turned the stock market upward
today after early irregularity.
The market snapped back from
to more than points in short
order. The rebound came in the
face of weakness in grains, many
deliveries going to new record
lows in Chicago in sympathy
with a weak tone in Liverpool.
Central Rally Leader
Central was used as the rally
leader by the bulls and the stock
was whirled up nearly 3 points
from its low and more than 2
points above yesterdays close.
Union Pacific did as well while
other rails were strong.
The rise in the carrier stocks
was aided by the good showing
of November earnings results,
better traffic figures for last
week and the beginning of the
freight surcharge hearings be-
1OEC GIlC 1. y. -. Ill " hoLAAAlS COAA
today.
The rest of the market fol-
lowed the rails. Leaders like
American Telephone and Allied
Chemical rose l to points each
while the U. S. Steel issues i'm
proved despite further drop in
the industry's operations for the
week.
Much Short Covering
Short covering played a prom
inent part in the rise. This was
evidenced by the strength in Case
Threshing against the break in
wheat. Rallying tendencies were
displayed by grain late in the
forenoon, which stimulated Specu-'
lative sentiment.
Bonds strengthened with stocks,
while commodities were sluggish.

CLOTH MARKET

NEW YORK, Dec. 9s G.N.SD.
Activity in the coarse yarn cloths
market today continued at a slow rate
with buyers showing at best only mod
crate interest in goods, and buying
minor quantities for the most part.
Mills were encouraged by the good
show of checking operations, which
they took to be ind 'Cative that buyers
were willing to take goods il they
could get concessions Concessions fail
ing to develop Milmen took the posi-
ton that buyers eventually would come
IN for the goods anyway, so that most
mills were determined to hold prices

Smaller Turkeys.

The turkeys which grace Thanks
giving and Christmas boards are gradu-
ally growing smaller, says h. L. Shrader
poultry husbandman Of the United
States Department of Agriculture. Ten
years ago consumers preferred large
toms and the smaller birds Casually
hens) brought lower prices, but now
the market demand is for birds weigh
ing an average of 10 pounds dressed.
This year the smaller turkeys have
commanded a premium of or cents
a pound. Mr.. Shader says. One Of the
largest chain-store buyers states that
three-fourtns of the demand IN bus
stores is for birds weighing from 8 to
Il pounds.

At the close of the evening the
players were treated to fine lunch

night winds. In the morning a thin
hlm OF ice had formed over the sur

today BY natives of India.

shooters went to Coleraine last Friday
and were defeated on the heartbreaking
score of Is to "a. Both teams played
an elegant game and at no time were

ignominiously but their comeback last
Friday to win by close score showed
excellent work on the part of the coach
who prof1ted by the previous defeat.
