To BerIe
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Charles R. Hook, president of the
American Rolling Mill Co., told the
Monopoly Committee today he ia
vored giving business the right of
group cooperation with respect to
prices
The steel mans suggestion was
contained in letter to A. A. Berlc,
jr., Assistant Secretary of State and
an administration economic adviser.
Portions of the letter were read by
the committee counsel.
Il haven't changed my opinion" I"
he said of the letter.
"No sensible industrialist," one
paragraph said, would contend that
there must not be certain proper
regulation of corporate activities:
however, we cannot pay wages or
continue to increase wages if man.
agement is denied the right of group
cooperation with respect to prices" !"
Commenting on the letter, Mr..
Hook said he was not advocating
giving units the right to agree on
prices, but said he thought it per
fectly proper for corporate manage
ment to discuss the relation between
cost and price"
Mr.. Hook discussed the British
system, under which industry may
cooperate with respect to price"

wandered aimlessly over slightly un-
even territory in most of today's
market, but improved tendencies
appeared here and there in the
closing hour.
1t was a slow-motion session
throughout, with transfers of around
100000 shares, being the smallest
for full day in about two weeks.
Spotty trends at the start were
succeeded by a little firming up of
selected steels. aircrafts, rails and
specialties before midday. There
was another slipup later and mod
est betterment of quotations as the
proceedings drew to an end.
Business news still was to the lik-
flow Of earnings and dividends fur
nishing further confirmation of the
fall upswing. At the same time,
likelihood of some corrective" re-
cession in the next few months was
recognized in financial quarters.
Frightening the scene was a jump
of one point in this weeks steel mill
operations. At 935 per cent of ca
pacity. output was. for the second
week, highest since the American
Iron g. Steel Institute began issuing
estimates in 1888.
Those who have been holding
stocks on the basis of American
benefits from lengthy war were
said to have received stimulation
from latest European dispatches in
dicating peace moves of Holland and
Belgium may get nowhere.
Most foreign markets did fairly
we'll and brisk rally of the Brit
ish pound sterling and the Bel
gian belga in terms of the dollas
was thought to have reflected the
evident postponement of the Nazi
blitzkreig.
Stocks taking on fractional ad-
vances at one time or another-some
retreated ultimately-were Repub-
lie Steel Chrysler, General Motors,
Curtiss- Wright, Douglas Aircraft,
Eastern Airlines, United Airlines,
American Telephone, Santa Fe,
Pennsylvania. Electric Boat, Amer
lean Can and United States Gyp-
sum-
On the minus side the greater
part of the day were Kennecott,
United States Steel. Bethlehem,
Goodyear, Union Carbide, Eastman
Kodak. Sperry. Sears-Roebuck and
Consolidated Edison.

CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-Declines of

by peace talk reports coming from
Europe and prospects of possible
moisture relief in the domestic

Tending to encourage some buy

New York Cotton
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-An active
demand for December and March
contracts in the way of trade price
fixing and covering through Wall
Street houses impaired steady
tone to the cotton futures market
today.
Prices moved over an irregular
course early as Liverpool and New
Orleans buying was offset by active
hedging and foreign and domestic
liquidation.
Sentiment improved later as the
trade bought cotton persistently and
late this Afternoon prices were un-
changed to points higher with the
exception of distant October, which
was lower on an early sale at BAT.
December was higher at 955 and
July was unchanged at 8.87.

cusSion was held which brought out
many interesting bits of news and
events not found in other channels.
Among them, Lion Penn Kaanta
brought cut the fact that on the
Shortwave length the best news re-
ports were heard from Station KGEI
in San Francisco after 4 PM. Lion
Westerlund told the club of the new
program of the public schools not
to have any more "mid-semester"
students, or students that start
school in January and go on thru
their school career as in-betweens.
The elimination of "mid-semester"
students will enable teachers to
give better attention to their stu
dents as this will eliminate half of
their assignments. Lion Fortunate
Mazon brought out interesting facts
about the increase of sugar prices
and their causes.
