DRY GOODS

NEW YORK, March 20 GP -
Cotton gray goods traders centered
attention on fluctuations in futures
market today leaving Worth streets
trading light and prices unchanged.
The lull in activity was regarded
as the usual quiet conditions gen.
orally prevailing in primary markets
during the week preceding East.r.
A brisk demand continued in rayon
goods, especially for sheers and pig
ment t~affetas, and nearby deliveries
of the latter commanded a premium.
Trading in silk fabrics remained
quiet. With the approach of spring
weather, demand for dress goods
has been noted.
Sizable orders for wooden goods
have been booked in the mems wear
line. Mills r encouraged by the
absence of piece goods in the pri-
mary markets and distributing chan
nels and believe this a sign of early
buying for the fall season.
