NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-(P)-The
cotton futures market turned
reactionary today under pressure
of hedge selling and profit taking.
Final prices dropped 20 to 60 cents
bale. Much of the trading was
OF a year-end nature including con-
siderable switching from near to
later months. The reaction was at
tributed principally to technical
reasons following the sharp run
up into new seasonal high ground
IN Thursdays trading.
Some OF the selling was believed
in trade quarters to have been
inspired by the belief that it will
be profitable to purchase cotton
from the commodity credit corp.
GRAFTON offerings next month for
delivery against contracts. The
open interest in near months re-
Gently has bee decreasing.
Private advices reported practical
~ a cessation of mill buying in the
primary spot markets although To-
cal sales were relatively large con-
sidering the small movement OF
new cotton.

Buying interest was slow in

Traders noted report that wheat
exports last week totaled I'LL, 900
bushels, the largest of the season,
but that for the last six months of

Large accumulations of grain
still remain in Eastern seaports
