COTTON FUTURES
Anxiety Noted Over Plans
For New Control Struc
ture During Past Week.!
By BERNARD S. O’HARA 1
Associated Press Financial Writorl
NEW YORK.—(#)—Cotton fu
tures had a few wide swings last‘
week but they appeared to havel
little meaning apart from current
anxieties over the government
plans for a new farm contrJl
structure .
The price movements were de
cidedly erratic. There was 4 good
advance Monday, a mid-week
Flump and a fairly strong finish,
enabling the active list to close
the period 5 cents to 70 cents a
bale above the final levels Feb
ruary 1.
Reports carried by the Wash
ington wires on discussion of
plans for disposal of government
controllad cotton were factors for
keeping trade sentiment some
what unsettied.
The market appeared to give a
measure of endorsement to the
resolution introduced by Senator
Smith of South Carolina calling
for sale of the cotton in small but
uniform amounts from week to
week irrespective of the price.
There was some shifting of in
terest to the crop possibilities for
the new season. With planting of
the new crop about to begin 1n
south, Texas, the trade naturally
turned its thoughts to acreage.
Estimates so far have ranged
from around 30,000,000 to 38,000,-
000 acres or more, but these are
consideréd mere guesses, in view
«f the uncertainties as to the ef
fective date and scope of the new
soil conservation movement.
The New York Cotton Exchange
service estimated the total year
end stock of all cotton at 28,392,-
000 bales against 28,676,000 at the
end of 1934, and 31,612,000 two
years ago.
World stock of American cotton
was placed at 14,602,000 bales
against 15491000 a year ear]icr‘
and 18,432,000 two seasons ago.
The aggregate supply, the ser-‘
vice said, is the smallest for a
year-end since 1930 when it was
27.3000,000 bales. The American|
stoeks were the smallest of any
December since 1929, but the for
eign holdings were considerably
above the average of that date !ni
recent vears. |
There were reports of improved
activity in some print cloth lines,
Jbut the textile selling situation
generally continued slow, authori
ties said.
