Cotton Textile Prospects
Remain Dim in Week
BY the Associated Press,


NEW YORK, July 1.-The cotton
textile market was quiet throughout
the week as mill and trade factors
awaited Qualification of price con-
troll legislation revising textile CELL
ings to reflect parity prices for cot
ton.
Approach of the holiday and shut
down of many mills next week for
vacations were additional retarding
influences to new business.
Small lots of cotton print cloths
and sheetings were released, but
prospects for an improved civilian
supply are dim as Government Or
ders tied up large part Of mill
operations.
The wool goods market was quiet.
Government orders and the man
power shortage prevented any large
releases to civilian trade. The in
dustry, however, expected possible

Selected Stocks
Gain al Close
Of Good Week
Utilities, Packers, Oils
And SpecioIties Edge
Into Higher Ground
BY VICTOR EUBANK,


NEW YORK, July 1.-The stock
market today concluded another
speedy and generally satisfactory
week with utilities, packers, oils and
specialties operating on the upside
while many recent climbers were
stalled by light selling.
From Monday on the list had to
contend with certain amount of
liquidation based on the idea the
lengthy rise to seven-year-average
peaks called for some sort of tech
nical correction which could bring
more profitable purchasing levels.
Demand for many peace-rated
stocks was attributed to the per-
sistently good war news. Develop
ments at the Republican National
Convention were in line with expec-
tatlons in the financial district and
little immediate repercussion on
share trends was in evidence.
Power Shares Favored.
Later in the week, though, power
and light company shares appar-
emily responded to mounting poll
tical hopes with a heavy turnover.
Although the penny" performers oc-
cupied the limelight, pivotals such
as American Telephone went into
the new high" class by comfortable
margins.
Motors and automotive accessor-
les were among the weeks fastest
sprinters. These were buoyed by
talk Of mergers for some independ-
ents and the belief that partial
civilian manufacturing might be
permitted soon. Steels revived and
rails just held their own.
Selectivity prevailed from the
start OF today's session, but gains
OF fractions to point or more, with
highs for 1914 or longer numerous,
were well distributed at the close.
Boardrooms were pretty well desert
ed as many Wall Streeters left Friday
with the intention of remaining
away over Independence day when
Exchanges will recess.
Average Higher in Week.
The Associated Press 60-stock
composite was unchanged at SIS,
but on the week showed a net ad-
vance Of 3 of a point. For the
month the gain was % points.
Transfers for the two hours totaled
646,540 shares compared with $751;
ITO last Saturday Bonds were
mixed. In the curb forward lean
ers were Electric Bond a. Share,
Cities Service, Tishman Realty and
Niagara Hudson Power.

turn engagement with Spoldi,
who lasted only seven rounds
with the hammering Henry in
1912.
