Chrysler and General Motors were

The upturn came out of earlier

by surprise. Considerable short

the upturn.
A few stocks were sluggish on

COTTON TURNS
REACT|ONARY

NEW YORK, Aug. % U.N.S).
The cotton market turned reac-
tionary today, following the over
night announcement of the loan
value of cotton at IL cents a
pound.
Heavy liquidation was evidenced
at the very outset, good part
of it profit-taking from local and
professional longs, and prices
were down from 6 to 13 points
at the first call. Some disap-
pointment was also expressed over
the failure to raise the loan
value to the higher figure at 13
cents which had been suggested
in recent days.
The official announcement was
made by President Roosevelt last
night, instructing the RFC to
make funds available to the Com
modify Credit Corporation ena-
bling it to increase lendings on
cotton to the 12-cent level, speci-
flying cotton of low middling
grade or better, which is and
has been continuously in posses
sion of the producer.
Gables from Liverpool said the
market there was puzzled over
how to interpret the loan figure.
Liverpool contracts ruled about in
line with due prices, figured in
American points.
The weekly weather report dis
closed that mean temperatures
for the period ranged generally
from three to four degrees above
normal in the eastern cotton belt
to as much as IL degrees above
in the Northwest. Showers were
rather general east of the Missis-
Sippi River, but another rainless
week was experienced practically
everywhere in the West.
Contracts were slightly above
their winning lows around the
noon hour, with October off 16 at
1928, December off 16 at 1887
and March down Is at 1885.

hdia;s S Cotton
Acreage Cut

The Indian Government, &C
cOrding to Bombay cables to the
New York Cotton Exchange Ser
vice, estimates the area planted
to cotton in India to August 1,
1884, at 12,9S5,OOO acres, com.
pared with 14,OS1,OOO acres
planted to August l, 1888, a de-
crease of ~ per cent.
The ratio of cotton planting
in India by August 1 to the final
area was 59.1 per cent in 1888,
59.7 per cent in 1882, and 58.8
per cent in 1881, or an average
of 59.2 per cent for three years.
Based on this average ration
final acreage in 1884 would be
21,934, 900 acres or a decrease of
S12 per cent from last years
final acreage.

A further sizeable advance at
