NEW YORK. Feb. Ii gP.-Cotton fu-
lures broke sharply in forenoon trading
today as earlier liquidation and hedginc
gathered momentum. Prices were OF

close, with nearby March leading the de-
Icline. The market subsequently snapped
back fairly sharply On trade buying and
short covering TO regain part Of the losses
Eened Nervousness over the poor de-
lmand for cotton textiles coupled with
the tendency of dealers to hedge cotton
which had been previously carried on an
open unprotected basis we're important
factors contributing to the sharp sell-on,

Steel Surplus Threat
is Reported Serious
Some DeconfroIUrue
BY ihe A,,oeioted Pres.

CLEVELAND. Feb. H. Steel
magazine said yesterday that a
threat Of surplus steel now Is be-
coming increasingly serious.
"Government-control authorities
appear cognizant Of the situation
and the National Production
Authority is setting up a task force
to look into the matter" the mag
|azine added.
The Government is being urged
by industry representatives, Steel
said. to decontrol various items
in adequate supply. These were
listed as secondary tin mill prod
|ucts. cold-rolled sheets and strip.
merchant pipe and merchant
wire products.
Even though assurances have
been given that controls would be
lifted as supply conditions per-
INIT. the question Of whether
these items will be decontrolled
now presents a big "if," Steel con-
|tinued.
The magazines weekly sum-
mary of the Woodworking indus
try pointed out, however, that
although stocks of some items are
rising. ''the, overall supply-de-
|mand balance still appears months
distant
Generally, it said, few consum-
|ers "are carrying anything like
their normal inventory, which
averages so days and better"
Regarding defense needs. Steel
said it Is clear that still only a
relatively small amount Of steel
lis being used for this purpose.
The magazine said some
manufacturers think it win be well
into 1858 before peak defense
steel needs will be encountered. E.

Followers Of Rails
Have Big Stake in
Freight Rate Case
By DonoId 3. HodIey

Investors in railroad securities
here and across the Nation will
follow closely the freight rate case
upon which hearings will be re-
sumed before the Interstate Com
merce Commission February Is
Oral argument is scheduled for
February 25.
For at a time when railroads
are handling the second heaviest
traffic ever moved in peacetime,
and are taking in the highest
gross revenues Of all time. earn
ings are low, averaging only 375
per cent on net investment.
At ICC hearings which started
January Is, the railroads plea for
the remainder Of a 14.3 per cent
rate increase, which they original
ly sought in March, 1851, was
supported by an impressive array
of testimony. In August, 1851, the
ICC granted an overall average
increase of Sc per cent.
Especially in view Of further
rises in prices and taxes since the
original request was made. rail-
road witnesses have testified that
abnormally low earnings have
brought about precipitous drop
in working capital. a rise in rail-
road debt and an enforced cur
tailment Of the carriers program
of expansion and improvement.
Gas Profits Up Moderately.
Washington Gas Light. Co. to-
day reported net income Of $780,
264 in December VS.. 05,207 in

nues for the month reached ST.
$50, ,844 VS.. $2,365.573 and operat-
ing expenses jumped to $2,209.-
S39 VS.. $1.951,275.
Net income for the year 1851
amounted to $2,333, ,074 VS.. 81, ,843.-
1893 in the previous year. Operat-
ing revenues totaled $20,048.225
VS.. $17.348,036 and operating ex-
penses reached $17,909,106 VS..
$15,313,76
AS previously reported, con-
solidated net income of the COM

Delaware farmers are respond
ing to the call for more feed grains,
especially much needed corn. The
March 1 crop reports show that six
percent more land $4,000 more
acres will be planted to corn this
year than last. Delaware is one of

tension marketing specialist, Uni
versity of Delaware. Acreage will
be about the same for these crops.
Less barley and sweet potatoes are
expected in 1852. There will also
probably be fewer acres in truck
crops, except for white potatoes.
A favorable market last year might
encourage growers to plant more.
Farmers aren't always able to
meet the goals of the March l re-
ports because of weather, prices,
and labor supply. But Delaware
farmers are planning on 395,000
acres of crops this year, 1000 more
than in 1851. says McAllister.
