COTTON
E YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, March 10 - ~
Cotton futures closed firm today
at gains of SITS to $2.35 a bale
over the previous close. Heavy
trade and outside buying develop
ed in late dealings and carried
the market to new highs for the
current move.
The upturn was influenced by
the sharp rally in grains and the
growing tightness in spot cotton
supply. Commission house buying
conferred in the new crop months
on indications that cotton paintings
this year will be under the acre
age goal recommended by the
government. Some trade buying
was attributed to covering against
foreign sales.
Textile exporters were reported
booking a substantial volume OF
business, anticipating the lifting
of export control on March Is.
There was further evening-up in
