Cotton Consumption
AT Mills Expected
To SET Record
Exports for August
And September Hit
60-Yeur Low
Py the Associated Press.

Py the Associated Press.
The Bureau of Agricultural Eco
Monies reported yesterday that mill
consumption of cotton during the
year to end next July 81, estimated
at more than 100000 bales, would
set a new record. 1t added, how
ever, that exports for August and
September were the lowest for these
months in more than 60 years.
Domestic mill consumption in Au-
gust established an all-time high
for that month, the bureau said
With improved manufacturers sales
and higher mill margins, the bureau
asserted that consumption this
month might establish September
record high.
In estimating the years domestic
mill consumption at more than
100000 bales the bureau said il
took into account large Govern
ment defense purchases, improved
business conditions and larger Gov
eminent subsidies on cotton tex
tiles 10 domestic and foreign con-
sumers. The present record, eStab-
lished in the 1867 season, is just
short of 100000 bales.
Mill consumption last season to-
tailed 7,750000 bales
Despite the high level of domes-
tic consumption, disappearance OF
American cotton, which included
exports as well as consumption. was
unusually small in August and Sep
TENDER, the bureau said. This fact
coupled with an increase of one and
one-third million bales in domestic
crop prospects in August, contribut-
ed to the decline in spot prices dur
ing August and early September
the report continued.
The September estimate of 70
772 900 bales for the 1910 domestic
crop, plus a world carry-over of
more than l2.5O00 900 bales. gave an
indicated world supply of American
cotton of nearly 25.250,000 bales. in

Figures
What TheyMeon
BY JOHN L. BECKLEY,


NEW YORK, Oct 1.-The en-
barge on exports of iron and steel
scrap is expected in trade sources
to have little or no effect on do
meStic prices.
The most which is anticipated is
sentimental weakness for few
days, perhaps a week. because some
purchasing agents may hold up
orders in the belief that supplies
will be more plentiful. Then do
meStic factors which really govern
the price will reassert themselves.
At least that's the way the scrap
dealers feel about it. and they make
out a good case for their contention.
Termed Insignificant.
Japan has been taking a relatively
insignificant amount of scrap, COM
pared with the requirements Of our
domestic mills. In the first eight
months of the year shipments of
iron and steel scrap to Japan to-
tailed about 100000 tons. BY COM
parison, American blast furnaces
are now consuming scrap at the rate
OF 100000 tons a month.
On the basis of these figures. scrap
dealers can't see how the embargo
can make much difference in do
meStic prices, even though it has
been hailed with much satisfaction
by some of the big steelmaking in
tereStS.
Certainly, dealers say, it shouldn't
affect scrap prices in the important
Steelmaking districts in the interior
of the country. Freight charges on
waste iron and steel products are
heavy, so that virtually all export
scrap has come from seaboard COM
munitieS.
Limited Effect Likely.
If there is any price weakness. 1t
is expected to be confined to these
coastal areas, where only relatively
small steel companies will benefit.
A similar situation arose, scrap
dealers point out. when scrap ship
ments to Italy we're suddenly stopped
by her entry into the war in June.
Italy had been buying scrap here
this year at almost the same rate as
Japan, yet the effect on prices was
merely temporary weakness.
Hardest hit by the embargo will
be scrap dealers on the gulf and
the West Coast. where most ship
ments for Japan originate East
Coast dealers will continue to have
a good market in Great Britain and
Canada
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1940-10-01

said. This makes the fourth con-
secutive year in which the world
supply of American cotton has been
close to 25,00000 bales.
With shipments largely, confined
to Great Britain, Japan and Can
ada, exports. for August and Sep
TENDER were estimated at 125, 0OC
bales, as against $4,000 last year
and a 10-year average of nearly
1000, 900 bales.

ShlpyarQS, machine TOOLS, engine,
steel plants are the ones hanging
out the signs: Men wanted AS
they dig into the mountain of I'M
filled orders, pay rolls are expected
to increase steadily. August en-
ployment figures showed a stable
gain in men at work and the trend
seemed headed for new high figures

lieved to exceed actual consumption
of metal at this stage for the United
States defense program.
