GLOOM DESCENDS
IN BRITISH STRIKE
Ten Million to Be Affected,
Deputy Mayor Fears at
Manchester.

MANCHESTER. England, August %.
The gloomy prediction that more
than 100000 people within so miles
of Manchester will see their spending
power cut in half if the textile strike
just called becomes general, was before
the British public today.
1t was made by Alderman George
Tit, deputy mayor of Manchester, who
initiated conferences last week in vain
effort to circumvent a walkout over
wages and working conditions.
The failure of these meetings resulted
Saturday in orders for 100000 Weavers
not to return to work when the "hoot-
ers' call the mill operatives to their
tasks throughout Lancashire at am.
today.
General Walkout Due.
This strike order on the part of the
trade union was the initial move for a
general walkout. Within the next 10
days the spinners. the rest of the 500,-
600 textile operatives of Lancashire will
vote on 10 per cent wage cut. Even
if they should accept the cut, the alb
sence of the weavers would eventually
tie up the industry.
Alderman Tit based his peSsimistic
prediction on the fact that vast num-
ber of tradesmen and others look to the
cotton industry for a livelihood, while
thousands of others depend on cotton
investments for large part of their in
comes.
There was talk of possible defections
from the striking ranks, but trade union
operatives were confident their check
at the end of the day would show that
10000 weavers had responded prompt

GROWERS CHEERED
BY COTTON PICKUP
$500, 900, 900 Added to VAL
ueS in u. S. Since Low
Mark in June.
BY VICTOR EUBANK,


NEW YORK, August 29.-The cabin
in the cotton may be transformed into
a prosperous bungalow if the price Of
the Scuths principal agricultural prod
uct continues to mount.
There are some 100000 cotton farm
erS and their families in the United
States who, after long period of de-
| preston, are beginning to sit up and
| take notice of new shoes, clothes and
other necessities they had almost for
| gotten.
This is proving of extreme interest to
financiers, manufacturers and mer-
chants, who enVision turn of the buy
ing tide if, and when, the hard-preSsed
planters are able to cash in on the
growing values of their crops
Cotton Lowest In June.
Last June cotton prices lowered
around their all-time lows. Since then
the commodity has advanced some $50
a bale, an increase that the ordinary
farmer could hardly credit. Cotton
started to firm moderately in July and
really became bouyant following the
Governments crop estimate of IL ,306,-
900 bales early in August.
At present there are all sorts Of
private estimates, some holding that the
crop will not reach 10,500000 bales.
There is considerable speculation on the
Governments September estimate, to be
made public soon.
At present prices the approximate
total value of the cotton crop in the
United States for this year. and of the
carryover for last year, has increased
nearly S500,000,000 from the years bot
tom figures. Only part of this;
naturally, will go to the cotton farmer.
But that part will mean considerable to
him when it is seen that during the
past year the average gross income Of
cotton planters has been barely 5000.
Prices in Wcrld Market.
Crop statisticians believe the ultimate
course of prices will be contingent on
broad economic factors, such as general
! trade Improvement and the size OF the
! foreign output.
! World conditions are figured closely
| in the various estimates. Last year. for
| instance, it is noted that India's yield
was some 100000 bales below that of
! the previous season. The outlook for
| the present crop in India. however. is
| improved. The China crop is believed
to be about 100000 bales larger than
| in the previous season.
| At the same time, some observers esti-
mate that during 1932-l933 the worlds
consumption of American cotton will
! exceed the production by at least g.
! 500 600 bales.
