It is a maneuver for experienced
distances varying from six to 20
feet. The skier zigzags through
this course.
With speed a number OF prob
lens arise. Bumps that are al
most invisible to the naked eye
will jar you. Extreme flexibility
and strength are needed. A speed
of 70 m. p. h. has been reached at
st. Moritz and so m. p. h. is not
uncommon in big races. Beginners
should limit their speed.
Wakes are used on the bottom
of skis so that the snow does not
stick. How often you wax skis
depends upon the snow and speed.

Labor shortages, already acute IN

UNEMPLOYMENT, variously estimated,

perts place the number OF employ
ables without jobs now as low as

needed for armed forces and Tor
arms plants. This means drawing
workers away from peacetime pur-
suits, working harder and longer.

circles were fully alive to cost 1ac-

ton did.
Stock Market Quiet.
Trading in the stock exchange
fell of to the lowest volume IN
many years, and prices drlfted
downward throughout the earlier
months, getting close to the lows
reached on the fall OF France a year
before An early summer recovery,
aided by the strong fight against the
Nazis made by Russia, brought
prices back close to the January
peaks. but they headed downward
again. as the Russians gave way,
and the clouds grew darker in the
Far East. American entrance INTO
the war sent price averages'lnto
moderately sharp dip, to little un-
der the lows made on the fall OF
France.
Bonds, however, were higher most
of the wear, and trading increased.
Thev were not so vulnerable to the
threat of crushing taxes, since BOND
interest is deducted before taxable
profits are computed.
Keeping the interest rate low be-
came an increasingly vital Govern
ment objective as prospects for arms
spending reached astronomical
levels. If the yield on Government
bonds is permitted to go no higher
than ~ per cent-and Britain has
kept its borrowing rate there-the

AS much of the arms cost as feasl-
BILE will undoubtedly be met by taxes,
but at present only about one-third
of the outlay is being so met, and as
expenditures rapidly increase, taxes

even the present proportion. Tradi-
tionally, a large proportion OF war
the cost Of war, is met by borrow
ing and the credit structure can

Cotton Market Chief
OPPOSES Further
Acreage Cuts
Murray Cites Shorp
Gain in Consumption
For War Purposes
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The preG.
dent of the New York Cotton Ex-
change, pleased by the stability Of
the Nations cotton markets during
this momentous month Of war. said
today the trade had been adjusted
largely to q wartime economy.
The exchange executive, Robert j.
Murray, said United States cotton
mills under the defense program had
already raised their consumption
rate Of the staple sc per cent above
the average peacetime level and
would have to raise 1t still higher to
meet war requirements.
He said 1t appeared likely domestic
cotton growing would be held down
to the sharply eurtailed level Of re-
cent years, but warned 1t would bo
"unwise" to reduce the acreage fur
ther even though the country has
large stocks.
Help In Transition.
whatever opinions may have
been held as to the wisdom of price
supporting Government loans on
cotton and of huge Government
holdings of the staple in peace
time" Murray said, 'it was COM
monty agreed that these Govern
ment operations were advantageous
in the transition of the trade to a
war basis.
There was no need for potential
buyers of the staple to hold back
because of the great uncertainties
ahead and a consequent possibility
of large price decline, for the Gov.
eminent, by its lending operations,
was prepared to take an unlimited
amount OF cotton from the growers
and assume the price risk Of it.
There was no good reason for
the growers or other holders of cot
ton to withhold the staple from mar
ket for abnormally large price ad-
vances, for the Government held
millions of bales. ready at hand.
stored in warehouses through the
South and East, which, subject to
certain limitations of law, 1t could
release whenever 1t felt it was JUS
| titled in SO doing.
Stability Is Result.
Thus there was absent from the
cotton market either the possibility
of a deluge Of offerings or the posi-
bility Of an acute scarcity Of supplies
such as caused or threatened to
cause abnormal price movements in
some other commodities.
In his assertion that present cot
ton acreage should not be reduced,
Murray said:
1T appears probable that domestic
consumption plus the prospective
small exports will total more than
production is likely to aggregate on
the present acreage. Whenever this
is the situation this country will
have to draw on its reserve stocks.
1T should be borne in mind that
with the domestic mills consuming
cotton at an extremely high rate
they have to have for the best op-
Grating results very large working
stocks of the staple"
