futures registered gains Of IS cents
to 81. so a bale on trading buy
ing and short covering today.
The unexpected reduction. Of IL
cents a pound in the cotton export
subsidy had little effect on the
market. Traders felt it emphasized
the need for Gotten at home with
domestic stocks moving down to
an 18-year low. The lower subsidy,
however, was generally considered
unfavorable on export prospects
next year with Brazilian cotton
selling sharply under the Ameri-
can staple.
offsetting this development was
the expected army buying Of U.s.
600 to 100, 900 bales of cotton for
use in Germany japan.
Private crop reports were favor
able. Mills bought very little spot
cotton and are selling some sur
plus stocks in an effort to reduce
high priced inventories, pending
marketing of the next crop.

 Diggs predicted that either his group or some other twill start this railroad within three or four years"
 "The present plans contemplate that the railroad will be construct ed by private capital" Digg said. We hope that after we reach Alaska our government will aid in the construction but we have de- ceived no commitments from it though government officials have shown great interest.
 We are anxious that a railroad be built to the Territory for we believe that is the only way it ever will be opened up.
 And, in view of the present Russian situation, we should have such a connection with our Terri tory.
 The railroad will open up vast resources and in Canada tap coun- try exceedingly rich in natural re- sources such as coal, timber and pulp wood"
 Canadians have shown great in- terest in the proposal, Diggs said, adding that his group consists of both Americans and Canadians.
 He said that two New York banking houses have shown an in tereSt in financing the proposed road, estimated to cost S200,000,- 900 or more, but declined to name them.
 The plans are to construct the railroad west of the mountains, which Diggs described as the only feasible route for such a project

 Being Investigated

Declaring "There is no reason

here Monday to send a letter to
each member of the Civil aero

The commissioners decision
was made despite a restraining
order which State Airlines has
been attempting to have placed

1T feel it is our duty to the
people to urge CAB to allow
Wilmington north-south air ser
vice now," Harry Gardner, said
who added that he was informed
that Piedmont can start opera
tons here within five days of
receiving a "go ahead" sign.
Would Stall Service
State Airlines, which has a
petition before the CAB to re-
verse the Piedmont franchise
and grant it to State, seeks to
stall off service here until the
petition is heard.
The commissioners received a
Monday from Hamilton
Aviation committee chair
man, urging that Bluethenthal
airport be placed on a joint city
county basis of operation. He ex-
planned that the committee be-
that joint operation would
prove more economical and eff
ficient.
