Wednesday.
Spinner takings for week Fri
day will, run against 161,000 last
year and 188,000 in 1921; were
87,000 last week.
The increasing receipts at Gal
veston, 41,000 thus far this week
vs 25,000 last. year, points to
larger exports than last year fn
near future Compare with last
year stock on 'shipboard at Gal
veston Thursday m&s 25,000 vs
25,000, at New Orleans 5,000 vs
5,000.
Despite all the talk of the crisis
in Germany exports from United
States to Germany during July
were 82,000 vs 05,000 last year.
Exports from United States to
Germany last season were 934,000
vs 1,441,000 season before last—
the almost worthless mark now.
In some manner Germany finds a
way to pay for cotton in dollars.
The increasing exports refute
the claim that there is no demand
for spots. The real situation is
that there is little of old crop
cotton outside Texas for sale ow
ing to very light stocks and where
cototn is available in quantity in
Texas, sales are larger for this
time of year. The small stocks
abroad, the smallest in years,
makes it almost compulsory for
Europeans to buy freely for im
mediate and future requirements.
Expect for the talent being
little reactionary, sentiment re
mains conservatively bullish.
