Cotton
NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, Jan. 30-lRNCot-
ton futures sank $135 bale under
heavy pressure of hedge selling
mostly against purchases OF gov
eminent cotton. Prices rallied
slightly toward the close on cover
ing and mill buying and finished
IS to $1.2O bale lower.
The market was unsettled by
reports that the trade was buy
ing more cotton from the Commod-
ity Credit corporation at the gov
eminent sterilization price which
IS about / IL cents pound under
the market level. Such purchases
were estimated in some quarters
about 100000 bales.
The CCC recently announced that
it had sold 100000 bales to the
trade on a bid basis. There was
talk that the next government offer
ing expected to total $4,000 bales,
might be sold on the government IS
sterilization price rather than on
bids.
Spot sales at the ten primary
markets were substantially higher
and were believed to reflect the
government sales and freer Of
ferings from producers at the
current high prices.
Futures closed 95 cents to $1.2C
bale lower.

GROUND ON TRENDS

NEW YORK, Jan. 30-R- The
bond market operated on the lean
side today with changes small fol-
the most part and trends obscured
by numerous minus and plus in the
same groups.
Activity diminished as the mar.
ket halted for new perspective
after two days of generally rising
prices. Sales of SC. 120, 900 compared
with $7,890,000 the day before. The
20 rails in the Associated Press
averages finished unchanged, the
10 industrials were up L of a
point, utilities were unchanged
and foreign bonds lost fractiOn.
The 10 low-yield reflected the ex-
IRENE stability of the investment
market by advancing to a new
high at 1888.
Ending little higher were,
among others, American Telephone
IS, Armour 3 las, Atlantic Coast
Line 4 lbs, Chicago & Eastern
ILLINOIS, income IS, big fOur LIS.
New Orleans, Texas & Mexico IS
and LIS, Southern Pacific 4 lbs
and Wabash 4 LIS.
Less prosperous, some ending
with losses up to point, were
bonds of the New Haven, Rock
Island. st. Paul, Baltimore &
Ohio, Central of New Jersey, Rio
Grande Western. Detroit Edison,
Illinois Central, International Hy-
dro Electric and Northern Pacific.
U. S. governments held within
the same narrow limits that ruled
the corporate list.
Some of the Chilean bonds were
higher but changes were insignifi-
cant in other foreign dollar bonds.

sistant United States Attorney John
P. Burke represented the Govern
ment at the hearing, said the sum
owed by Mr.. Smith, former gun

clear just how much was for SUD-
port of the divorced wife and how
much was to be paid for the support

had argued that under Michigan

unable TO support herself in order to
charge a crime against the divorced
husband for nonSupport.

Smith under personal bond, after
stating he thought Mr.. Smith
should contribute to the support of
the child. 1t was generally agreed
among counsel that Mr.. Smith make
arrangements to contribute the sum
OF $50 month toward the childs
| support.
