VIRGIN ISLANDS NATIVES
SEEKING NAVAL CONTROL
Want Salaried Men Back to Boost
Income and Occupy Empty
Houses.

BY the Associated Press.
Members Of the Colonial Council OF
the Virgin Islands are carrying on an
active campaign for restoration OF
naval control Of the islands.
The islanders want the 500 salaried
men of the Navy returned to boost the
natives income and to occupy the
houses which have stood empty since
civil control was established in 1891.
These former Danish possessions
were purchased by the United States
in 1917 for $25,00O,000. The population
Is dropping rapidly through emigration
to the United States.
Under the Danes the islands had D
large rum trade, but this was cut on
by American prohibition. In the last
IL years the United States has spent
between six and seven million dollars
in administering control and trying to
better economic conditions there.

Us. SEES TRADE
TREND HIGHER

Following the seasonal trend
there has been a pickup in busi-
ness activity of moderate nature
since the turn of the year, the
Commerce Department announced
today in the survey Of current
business.
In most lines of manufacturing
activity, January usually brings
some improvement over Decem-
ber. During the first three weeks
of the year gains over the month
before were reported in the steel,
lumber, electric power and some
of the consumer goods industries.
The coal and automobile indus
tries have maintained earlier i'm
provement. Activity in the tex
tile industry continued at a rela-
lively high rate, although below
the peak reached during the au-
tumn.
Car loadings in January inau-
gurated the seasonal upswing.
Construction contracts during the
first half of the month showed
an increase over December, where
as the normal seasonal tendency
is downward. Nevertheless, con-
struCtion remains at an extremely
low level.

COTTON LOWER
DESPITE FAIR
DEMAND

NEW YORK, Feb. 4 UN.s0.
With a good deal of weekend
profit taking in the market to-
day.
A fairly active demand from the
trade failed to help. In addi-
tion, spot and commission houses
bought on q small scale. New
Orleans was a seller again today,
chiefly in distant months, while
cooperative brokers sold in q mod
crate way.
Fertilizer sales for January and
for the first two months Of the
season showed gains over last
year in eight states, with one yet
to be heard from.
There were 'unwelcome increases
in the visible supply of American
and all cottonS. Movement into
sight, however, was lighter. The
falling off in exports and spin
ners takings from last year, de-
spite the fact cotton is cheaper
than a year ago, gave the trade
some concern.
Final prices were off 5 to 2
points, with March off 6 at 5.83;
May off z at SGT; July off z at
SOC; october off 6 at 6.29; De-
cember off 6 at 6.42, and jan

ing reports of the mounting Dutch

eral Reserve Bank resulted in
