Advance of Four Points
to 77.2 Shown After
Steady Decline.
The downward movement In whole
sale commodity prices which had pre
vailed for the last month was reversed
in the week ended March 30. The in
dex of the National Fertiliser Associa
tion. based on the 1936-1928 average
as 100, advanced to 77.2, a rise of four
points over the preceding week. A
month ago the Index was 7".9 and a
year ago 71.0.
Of the 14 component groups of the
index six advanced last week and two
declined, compared with one Voup ad
vance and six declines in the preced
ing week. The principal increases were
in the foods, grains, feeds and live
stock, textiles and fats and oils groups.
Eleven commodities In the grains,
feeds and live stock group advanced,
Including corn, oats, wheat, cattle,
hogs and lambs. The foods group reg
istered seven advances and only one
decline.
The rise In the textiles group was
due in large part to. higher cotton
prices, although burlap and silk also
advanced.
Seypn Items In the fats and oils
group declined and only three ad
vanced, but the group index rose 34
points, the rise In lard and butter
prices much more than offsetting the
declines In the vegetable oils quota
tions. Slight advances were registered
by the textiles and chemicals and
drugs groups.
The fuel group declined as the result
of a seasonal drop in anthracite coal
prices; the Index for this group was
at the lowest level reached since the
week of April 7, 1934. The fertilizer
materials group Index fell off slightly
as a result of lower prices for cotton
seed meal and tankage.
Thirty-three commodities advanced
last week and 21 declined; In the pre
ceding week there were 15 advances
and 32 declines; in the second preced
ing week there were 16 advances and
37 declines.

IN COTTON TRADE
Exchange Seats Are Sold at
$8,000, or Lowest Mark
Since 19H.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. April 2.—The cotton
trade becomes more disorganized daily,
reflecting the effect of Federal policies
on domestic and foreign cotton busi
ness.
Two memberships of the New York
Cotton Exchange sold Monday at
*8,000 each, off $7,000 from the last
sales' and at the lowest price since
1914, with Its $7,000 record low. The
peak of $45,000 was in 1928 and 1929.
Prospects of small trading volume,
widened differences between Southern
spot and futures prices, and a cotton
trading Investigation, which Is ex
pected to add little to known facts,
contributed to these lowered exchange
seat quotations.
Mill Operations Curbed.
Cotton goods was helped somewhat
by the volume of sales last week, the
only week In March In which sales
equalled production, but the general
accumulation of stocks, resulting
from slackened domestic and foreign
business, compelled the 25 per cent
reduction, starting Monday by Gov
ernment order in three branches of
the trade—print cloths, wide sheetings
and carded yarn sales.
The decline of cotton goods during
March, amounting to an average of
% cent a yard, followed the sharp
break in cotton, as much as 1 cent
a pound. March 11, and a net decline
during the last month of iy3 cents a
pound. Diminished raw cotton ex
ports, along with the gain In Japanese
goods exports, contributed to the drop
In the commodity and its products.
The world cotton crop last year,
estimated by the New York Cotton
Exchange at 22,396,000 bales, was
about 3,000,000 less than the preced
ing year. The American crop alone
was down 3,000,000 bales from the
preceding year and 5,500,000 bales be
low the five-year average.
Price Spread Narrowed.
Recent narrowing of the price
spread between foreign and American
cotton* m*y help our export*, which
also may benefit from foreign pur
chases based on Inflation or war
scares. Prospects of small Russian
cotton purchases here and of a siz
able quantity of German buying de
pend entirely on satisfactory credit
arrangements.
While Washington talks of higher
processing taxes and an export sub
sidy, the trade thumbs historical rec
ords, for it Is out of statistics that a
glance at the future may be gained—
facts well realized by the sellers of
mules, fertilizer and other materials
to planters now busy preparing for
this season’s crop.
Estimates by the New York Cotton
Exchange of last year’s crop show
foreign cotton production was the
second largest In history, falling short
of the previous season’s record growth
of 12,850,000 bales by only 73,000
bales. Decreases occurred in Egypt,
India and Mexico, but these decreases
were almost completely offset by In
creases In China, Russia and Brazil,
and in the smaller producing areas,
.Uganda, Chosen, Argentina, Anglo
Egyptian Sudan, Belgian Congo,
Greece and Persia.
