NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK. Dec. 10 t41.-The cotton
futures market eharted an IRREGULAR
course this week. II started out on
the downside and then firmed up, but
was headed sharply lower again when
the week ended.
Active futures contracts traded on the
New York Cotton Exchange rounded out
the week with net price changes rang
ing from % cents bale higher to = IS
bale lower than at the close of the
week before. The current December
month was the only delivery to finish
in higher ground. July was the worst
loser.
Profit-takins and hedge selling de-
pressed the market at the start OF the
week. Some selling also reflected gem
erous private estimates Of the size OF
the current crop,
The market then staged q recovery.
Sustaining factors included the con-
tinued heavy movement of cotton into
the Government loan. and Secretary Of
Agriculture Benson'S statement regard
ing the possibility Of 30 per cent
parity loan rate for better qualities Of
wheat. Some observers felt this pro-
posal might later be broadened to include
cotton.
The low rate OF exports was charac-
terized by the exchange as most dis
courRging." For the week ended Tues
day exports Of lint cotton totaled only
i12,0No IN the Ike. week last year; That
br2ught the total for the season to b4s,'
OF bales vs.. l.24l.000 . year earlier.

Handicapped employees at their

In Washington a short time

of Commerce issued a new report
on hiring the handicapped to It's

employer to review his employ

Said the chamber: Statistics
show that properly trained and

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Hiring the Handicapped

Of a huge pool Of skilled Ameri-
can workers which it is hardly
tapping-the pool Of the handi-
capped.
President Eisenhower has ap-
pointed a Committee on EN-
ployment Of the Physically
Handicapped which is actively
working to stimulate hiring OF
the disabled. Congress has voted
additional funds to the Office OF
Vocational Rehabilitation so II
can extend more millions of aid
to State agencies working on this
problem. More and more pri-
vate associations are co-operat-
ing in a year. round campaign
to awaken public interest.
Over and beyond the emo
tional impulse, there are two
exceedingly practical reasons for
the stepped-up drive:
The scarcity of many types Of
workers during this period
OF high employment-and the
outlook for a continued scarcity;
At the same time, the in
creasing number of Americans
disabled every year am o n &
whom are many already skilled
or who could be easily trained.
On one side a growing de-
on the other a growing
supply: The existence of each
need can help solve each need.
But despite the increasing
activity, the problem is increas-
ing-and only stab has been
made at solving it.
The American Federation of
the Physically Handicapped esti-
mates there are over 7 million
American Of working age who
are handicapped. Only 3 mil
lion handicapped workers are
employed.
