Moderate Advance
Registered at End

NEW YORK, March 23.-Cotton
futures prices moved ahead this
week in the general commodity up
turn, which was associated with the
abrupt silencing of peace rumors by
an exchange of violent air bombings
by England and Germany.
The moderate gains were eked out
as result Of a fairly steep climb
Wednesday. when active contracts
pushed up IS cents to $1.O5 a bale.
The trading week ended Thursday
in token of the Easter holidays.
Foreign selling tended to depress
prices on Monday and Tuesday, but
trade and professional support sup
piled good cushion. Traders were
reported active on the buying side
when it became apparent the Senate
would approve the measure calling
for larger agricultural expenditures
in the coming season.
Reports from Worth Street indi-
Gated buyers of cotton cloths were
still disinclined to place substantial
forward contracts.
The weeks turnover in print and
broadcloths was light and some con-
structions were reported obtainable
at concessions of around u of a cent

Montgomery Sees Good
In Insurance Inquiry

That life insurance has nothing to
fear from the investigation being
carried on by the Temporary Ma
tional Economic Committee nor
from the Federal Governments So
cial security program and that, on
the other hand. life insurance stands
to make important basic progress as
the result of both, was emphasized
yesterday by William Montgomery,
president of the Acacia Mutual Life
Insurance Co.
Pointing out that there was strong
opposition to the noted Armstrong
life insurance investigation in New
York in 1905, as has developed now,
the Acacia executive said yet that
investigation is primarily RESPONSE
BILE for the progress and development
Of life insurance since that time be-
cause the laws enacted in various
States as result of it made possible
the organization and growth of prac-
tically all of the companies that
have since been chartered"
Should the Government sell an
nuities at one third lower rates than
the insurance companies charge, the
difference would have to be made up
by additional tax levies on the pub
lie, he commented.

Residential construction In the
Washington Metropolitan Area
staged a sharp comeback during
February and reached a new all
time record for that month, a re-
port from the Bureau Of Labor Sta
tistics showed last night.
Permits issued for new housing
during the month were valued at
S4,729,557 and provided for 1,242
families. This contrasted sharply
with only 81 ,937 ,005 and 533 families
in January, when adverse weather
curtailed activity.
The February residential permits
also were well above $3,841 800 and
933 families for the same 1899 month.
The bureau reported total public
and private construction in the
area reached $10,739,7l3 in February,
compared with only $2,992 ,899 in the
preceding month and $7,260,937 in
February, 1899. However, the grand
total was we'll behind $l4,557 1884 in
the 1898 month, when large Gov
ernment project was listed.

building and the number of families

Dental activity has caused uneasi-
ness among some real estate leaders,
who fear the possibility of over
building, particularly in the apart
ment field.
The February report brought
scant comfort because the new peak
in families provided for, when
coupled with proportionately
smaller gain in valuation, indicated
that an important part of the
months residential activity came
from new apartment projects.
Total construction, residential
building and the number of fami-
