Buyer Resistance Limits
Cotton Textile DEALINGS
BY the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, May 1.-Continue6
buyer resistance to prices this week
highlighted limited activity in the
cotton textile market.
In prompt delivery goods selling
was confined to scattered lots OF
print cloths, with prices on some
constructions showing further signs
of easiness. The greatest weakness
centered In sheetings, where bag
manufacturers continued to hold ofl
from the market.
More looms were switched from
sheetings to industrial goods, sucf
as drills and twills.
Comphcating the pricing situation
for mills was declaration from
the textile workers union that II
will soon seek another wage in
crease from Southern mills. Higher
wages, coupled with higher raw cot
ton, merchants felt, would force an
increase on gray goods prices.
The wool goods market was firm
but lacked feature.
Rayon goods were firm. Mills
made additional allocations of gray
goods for the third quarter.
