Cotton Goods

NEW YORK, May IS I.N.S.).-A quiet
week in the cotton goods markets
closed with conditions showing gradual
improvement as q fair volume OF print
cloths began to move in the last session.
Prices on q few constructions were adj
vanced and the tone Of the market was
considerably better than at the beginning
Of an apparently hopeless week.
The change was occasioned by the
feeling growing among buyers that
prices are as low at present as they are
likely to be for some time. With the
price OF the raw staple increasing and
the mill margin consequently narrowing.
buyers became afraid of a stiffening OF
quotations and began to come into the
market.
Mills are by no means out Of the
woods yet. Purchases were for nearby
delivery almost exclusively, and 1t Il
quite possible that having to an extent
satisfied such requirements buyers will
again withdraw from the market next
week.

FOOD INDUSTRY.
TRANSFORMER

Recent earnings indicate that
companies in the food industry as
a whole, and particularly those en-
gagged in manufacturing high
quality packaged products, have
definitely turned the corner, ac-
cording to Poor's analysis:
One Of the most encouraging
aspects of this business at present
is the rise in consumer incomes,
which have brought about q
marked improvement in the sale
Of higher quality goods, it is
pointed out in the analysis. This
permitted leading companies to re-
port first quarter earnings in 1886
well above the corresponding 1885
period. The report adds:
"AnOther encouraging factor
il the lower cost Of materials.
"Since packaged foods are not
easily susceptible to price ad-
vanceS, profits usually suffer
with rising costs. The Agricul-
tural Adjustment Act, with its
emphasis on crop restriction
and high farm commodity prices,
dealt a heavy blow to the earn
ings of food companies. The
invaIidatiOn of AAA, however,
with the abolition of processing
taxes and increases in farm pro-
ductiOn, is now resulting in lower
prices Of materials. Felt only
to a slight degree during the
first quarter Of 1886, because
old, higher-priced materials were
being worked off, the lower costs
. now prevailing promise to be-
come more effective during the
months tn come "

Ans: My answer is, No.
First note the difference between the
Deficit and the Debt. We can easily reduce
the annual deficit, and balance the annual
budget. This, however, would not necessarily
reduce the huge total debt or the taxes re-
quired to service the debt and pay it off.
The chief step in balancing the budget is
to stop the spending. So wasteful is the
present Administration that it is easily pos
sible to lop off about three billion dollars

Last year, there were but so cases
