(Compiled by the Associated Press ! Br the Associated Press. NEW YORK. March 6 — Bonds Idled In light dealings today as prices edged fractionally higher or lower, with gains predominating. Railroad issues, particularly those i selling at discounts, curved upward, j while low-yield carriers tended to slip j a little below the previous closing po- i ■itions. In the low and medium priced section, gains of V* point or better | were scored by Rock Island General 4s, Erie 5s and Southern Railway 4s. i New York Central 5s of 2013 also worked higher as did Alleghany 5s of 1949 and Baltimore & Ohio 4'2s. Gains of moderate to major frac- j tions were added by some of the Utility liens, notably Abitibi 5s, In ternational Hydro-Electric 6s and American & Foreign Power 5s. West ern Union 5s stood about even al though the company reported in creased 1936 earnings. The comparatively few industrials to show activity found support at un changed to slightly higher levels. Steel bonds and issues of companies identified with the automotive in dustry were buoyant. Washington Exchange SALES. Capital Transit Co.—6 at 15>4. Mergenthaler Linotype—7 at 51'4. AFTER CALL.

NEW YORK COTTON BT the Associated Press. NEW YORK. March 6.—Cotton fu tures opened steady, up 13 to 24 points on active general buying in response to sharp advances abroad. Heavy sales of cotton textiles were reported here. March, 14.02; May. 13.55; July, 33.36: October. 1297: December, 12.95: January, 12.99. Fourteen-cent cotton appeared on the board for the first time since Au gust, 1934, as March climbed to 14.07 while all new crop positions for the first time this season rallied above the 13-cent level in the most active trading of the year. Further weakness of the franc •timulated foreign and other specu lative buying while heavy price fixing reflected renewed activity in the cot ton goods market, where sales for the week were considerably more than double the current rate of production. Increased profit-taking sales and hedging appeared above the 13',2-cent level for May and reactions from about 8 to 18 points from the best followed. May eased from 13.56 to 13.47, but shortly after the first half hour recovered to 13.51 on continued good demand. The general market was ruling about 5 to 17 points net higher. Advances of Egyptian cotton at Alex andria carried prices there about 50 to 100 Egyptian points higher. Strength at Liverpool reflected some speculative buying influenced by weakness of the French franc. Futures closed very steady. 16-23 higher. High. Low. Last.
