Cuban Sugar Purchase
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, Jan. i9.-The French gov
ernment is considering a trade
arrangement with Cuba which in
wolves the purchase Of considerable
amounts of Cuban sugar by private
French importers, government
sources said.
Negotiations have not yet been
started, as there are problems to be
worked out between the ministries
of commerce and colonies, it was
explained.
The purpose of such an agree
ment, 1t was stated. would be to
open the Cuban market to French
exports on a reciprocal basis.
No specific amount was men,
toned. but a figure of 100000 metric
tons originating in trade gossip
was termed fantastic"
In Havana, sugar circles said a
sale is being negotiated with France.
Several brokers were said to be in
terested in the deal, which--like
one made last year to England
will be divided into a number of
small shipments Both Cuban
quarters and sugar men in New
York mentioned 100000 tons as the
likely total sale to France. Last
season France bought $4,000 tons Of
Cuban sugar)

Tire Industry Holds
Sound Position,
Statistics Show
Inventories Cut Down
By Production Control
And Auto Boom
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-Statisti-
cally the tire industry is in sound
position to show profits expansion
this year, observes the Standard
Statistics Co. Tire inventories have
been whitfield down both by con-
troll of production and by revised
policy of carrying fewer sizes in
various lines. Crude rubber inven-
tories are being carried at prices
below the current market, and in
ventory profits will accrue as this
rubber is used, assuming no tire
price reductions. And the price
structure on tires is currently not
threatened.
Tire demand this year is expected
to be substantially higher than in
1888, as the greater number Of cars
on the road will lead to some rise
in sales of replacement tires, while
the sharp jump in automobile out
put in prospect indicates an ad-
vance in original equipment sales.
Last year original equipment sales
were held down not only by the
low rate of car production but also
by the large tire stocks which the
automobile companies carried over
| from 1887.
Demand for mechanical goods also
should rise this year in line with
the increase in industrial activity
and the constant search for new
industrial outlets for rubber prod
ucts.
The one real threat is the tenden-
cy toward weakness in sterling ex-
change, which, if carried much fur
ther, might lead to some weakness
in crude rubber prices despite the
strong statistical position Of rubber
This in turn would mean inventory
losses and a threat to the finished
goods price structure. However
with the British government max.
ing strong efforts to support thu
pound By increasing the resource!
of the stabilization fund, this is no
an immediate threat.

sn.c,al Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, Jan. 19-The Radio
Retailing barometer OF retail set sales
for the month of December stands at
1875, or Is per cent above December,
1887. This figure Is, OF course, for the
country at large. In some States
dealers experienced increases of SO
per cent or more. Only six States
found December unit sales below
1887.
The annual statistical issue Of
Radio Retailing, just published,
shows that during 1888 retail set
sales amounted to over 100000,
although Just under 100000 sets
were produced 'by manufacturers.
The reason given for the difference
between sales and production is that
the market absorbed 100000 units
carried over from 1887.
That this number actually was alb
sorbed is evident because inventories
everywhere are way below normal.
I'm fact" says the publication, some
manufacturers and distributors were
without stocks of some of the hot
models long before the peak of the
holiday rush Furthermore, dealers
reporting regularly for Radio Retail
ings sales barometer show their own
inventories down from 80 to 60 per
cent below year ago"
The analysis shows that tubes took
a beating in the early months of
1888, but this sluggishness changed
materially as set manufacturers
started pouring in orders to fill
sockets of holiday models. Toward
the end of 1888 most tube makes fell
seriously behind in production, but
were able to catch up before De-
cember ended
Radio Retailing sums up the situa-
ton as follows: Outstanding &C
complishment of the radio industry
in the year just ended is that it sue
cessfully dug its way out of an
almost hopeless looking inventory
situation of year ago, without
recording any significant business
failures or leaving the path streWn
with wrecked concerns"
