COTTON PRICES
TURN LOWER

NEW YORK, April 10 G.N.s0.
Weakness in Liverpool and further
liquidation Of the May contract
turned the cotton market into a
reactionary affair today with
futures slumping so cents a bale
in active dealings.
In addition to the May liquida-
ton, there was fairly heavy selling
from New Orleans and the South,
while scattered offerings came
from spot firms. Buying was
limited, foreign and domestic trade
sources taking small amounts Of
cotton out of the ring and commits
sion houses making scattered pur-
chaseS.
Noon prices were off 9 to 10
points, with July off 9 at 11.66;
October, off 10 at 11.80; December,
off 10 at 11.91, and January, off 8,

Copper Industry's
Outlook Held Good
By International News Service

BY International News Service
Optimism over the copper out.
look was expressed by L. s. Gates,
president, Phelps Dodge Corp, at
the annual stockholders meeting.
Mr.. Gates expressed the belief
good buying of the metal would
develop when the code for the ir2-
dustry, now awaiting President
Roosevelt's signature, becomes ef-
fective.
Mr.. Gates expected the code to
have a stabilizing effect on the
copper industry and to stimulate
the demand for the metal, but
warned that it would not cure
everything"
Contrary to recent Wall Street
rumorS Of a 10-cent copper price,
the Phelps Dodge head said he
did not expect any great advance
and predicted a Scent price within
the next IL months. At this price
the company can make a fair
profit, he said.

prices, and to the fears of those
who are playing" for silver in
flation that the President will
not come along. New York State
measures concerning public util-
tiles might also be mentioned.
The crack in wheat naturally
caused some margin calls, and
probably some stocks were sold to
get funds. Farm stocks were also
affected Sympathetically. But the
general observation that the stock
market showed real independent
strength in the face Of severe de-
clines in grains is worth repeat
ing.
Had the technical position Of
stocks been weak, such a break
would certainly have touched off
wave of selling.
AS to silver moves, leave them
to those playing silver stocks. We
can have plenty of initiation with
out doing anything more for that
metal.
One should note that the move
in stocks since March % has
shown more Of the usual "culmina-
tion" signs. There has been no
large volume and no "distribu-
ton" period.
Now the reaction has been
checked Temporarily, at least) at
the level attained just before the
little dip on March 8-9. There is
a bare suggestion that a sort of
head and Sh' ulders" formation
may be seen. which might mean
further reaction; but this is not
strongly indie ated. It merely sug-
gestS caution to in-an-out traders.
Watch the 1929 level in the
Dow Jones industrial average. If
this is held, as seems to me rather
likely, the rise should be resumed.
At least, the upper level of a trifle
over los lould be tested" again.
Readers should understand
that I am not and have not
been recommending trading"
or speculation in the ordinary
sense. I am recommending q
sort Of investment; that is, the
sort of investment required
under present monetary c0ndi.
tiOns to protect ones money.
Before the deliberate abandon
ment Of the gold standard and
the reputation of gold clauses in
bonds, did not believe initiation
could occur in this country. But
since those acts and the following
unsound monetary policies, I have
not seen how initiation can be
avoided.
