COTTON TEXTILE
BUSINESS GAINS
Buying Shows First Real Ad.

servers Report.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

special DlSpdtcn 10 Inc star.
NEW YORK, Dec l3.-Men along
Worth street are striding with q
springer step and there is a notice.
able air Of "cheerio" In their greetings
to one another That means that the
cotton textile business. one of the first
to feel the bite Of backsliding commod-
ity prices, is looking up again.
AS a matter Of fact, the word is 60
ing around the well-known textile dis
trict, where just about all OF the coun-
try's cotton mill output passes through
the hands OF Arms which have been
selling agents for many generations,
that buying has shown the first real
lift since last March. The renewed
inquiry for goods started in print cloths
and gray goods and spread out to-
ward the end of last week to take in
sheetings, twills, drills and Osnaburgs.
Sales Of cotton gray goods have ex-
ceeded production for the first time
in more than six weeks. Jumped with
printcloth sales, the aggregate ran up
to about 50,000,000 yards, with most
OF the business done in the last few
days Of last week.
Regarded as Barometer.
The upturn in Worth street NAV
well prove to be a harbinger OF an
improved trend to buying in many
other directions. For it was cotton
that pointed the way up and led the
downward slide in commodities. A
year ago, Worth street was going like
house afire and merchants along
that textile thoroughfare told the
writer that the buying wave was even
bigger than that of late 1919 and
early 1920 To the writer's reminder
that the boom of that previous era
was followed by the commodity price
panic OF late 1920 and throughout sad
and slumpy 1921. the merchants In
terposed several points of difference
between the then current goings -on
and those Of 16 or II years before.
And for a few months it looked as
If the merchants were right about
things being different; but it all came
to the same thing in the end. Cotton
staple was selling around IL cents in
the futures market when the textile
buying furore was at its peak in No.
vember and December 1896. 1t rose
to around Is cents in late March,
1887. 1t went up in the face of big
crop prospects for 1887. But it
turned abruptly downward in April,

EXCHANGE REFORM.
PLANS DEBATED.
Many Brokers Fear S. E. c.
Proposals Will Curb
Market Further,
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The naming
Of committee to study administra-
ton Of the New York Stock Exchange
has focused Wall Street attention on
the question whether the Nations
stock trading machinery should be
geared for speculation or investment.
Under Federal rule the last three
years, dealings on the exchange have
been stepped down so far as to indicate
long strides toward suppression of the
old speculative ardor of the market.
But many brokers are apprehensive
the carrying out Of s. E. c. proposals
for further reform of exchange prac-
tices would mean thinning out of the
market to a shadow of its erstwhile
dimensions.
Augmenting interest in the question
OF further reform is contraction OF
trading In wake Of the recent market
fall. With dealings dragging at the
rate OF about million shares daily
last week in what is usually a fairly
active trading season, there was much
talk in brokerage circles of the neces-
sity of cutting facilities to what may
be an indefinite reduction in volume.
Backed by s. E. c. Threat.
The proposed shake-up in market
administration, backed by an S. E. C.
threat to intervene unless the exchange
acts on its own. is regarded by most
financial observers as part OF the
evolving S. E. C. program 10 attune
the trading machine to an invest
ment' market.
Charles Il. Gay, the exchanges
president, in appointing the committee
to investigate and report as soon as
possible, went outside brokerage
circles for part of the membership.
This was generally accepted as
concession to the liberal" wing of the
exchange membership which has been
disposed to string along with the
S. E. c. in opposition to control Of the
administrative machinery by pro-
fessional traders.
Where speculation ends and invest.
ment begins is question puzzling to
financial authorities. Some define
speculation as trading merely to profit
by rise or fall in prices, without regard
for investment qualities Of q stock as
an income producer.
1929 Ballooning Cited.
When the uninformed public Is
drawn in on large scale, it is held.
such speculation on the rise or fall
IN prices may result in quotations far
out of line with inherent investment
merit, as in the ballooning of prices
OF mystery" stocks in 1929.
What Chairman Douglas of the Sc
curlties Commission recently called
the Casino" element-professiona
traders operating for profit on price
f1uctuations-has been spotlighted by
the Government efforts to revamp the
trading machinery with the avowed
purpose Of making the market safer
10 navigate by the investing public.
These efforts to streamline the
market by curbing professional ac-
tlvity have drawn widespread criticism
IN financial circles. Advocates of an
active trading market hold checks on
professional dealings tend to make
the market dangerously thin" ex-
aggerating fluctuations in prices and
impairing the exchange function as an
agency for turning securities into
cash and channel for the flow of
capital to industry

Buyers Get High Sign"
Naturally. the textile market went
sour along with the staple. Some
users had bought so far ahead in the
late months of 1885 that they couldn't
do anything about it. Buying was
turned Of like q faucet. With the
raw material Of cotton textiles on q
long slide, there was no reason why
buyers should come into the market
until king cottons bobsled began to
slow down.
Buyers got the high sign" last
week. The raw cotton market had
been sort Of leveling of since early in
October. 1t was aided by Government
loan propositions and plans for
tightening UP on control of the crop
for next season. Andd last week
when the December / Government
crop estimate indicated a new, all
time high record crop for 1887 and
the futures market was able to lift
itself a few points despite that show
ing, and goods prices held accord
ingly. then buyers thought it time to
put an end to the long wait.
