NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, Oct. 3. G -
Cotton futures closed S to As cents
a bale higher today. During most
OF the session prices moved in a
narrow and irregular range. A
late furry of trade buying was
attributed partly to further cover
ing against government cotton
purchases.
Favorable news in the cotton
picture failed to have much in
fIuence marketwise with rallying
tendencies discouraged by presis-
tent hedge selling. against the new
crop.
The Commodity Credit Corp.
asked for offers on an additional
$4,000 bales of cotton for Japan.
Recent purchases by the C. C. C.
for Japan were estimated at about
225,000 bales including this
weeks purchase. Private advice
said that mills were buying spot
cotton more actively.
Futures closed 5 to As cents
a bale higher thar the previous
close.
