Figuring 1926 takings for do. mestic mills on the sale basis—and ¢hey have been no higher so far this year than in 1926—that leaves over 15,000,000 bales to be absorbed by the remainder of the world. British Mills Crippled. The English mills have been badly erippled by the coal strike and their requirements are not expected to be up to the levels of previous years. ‘The situation, however, is not en- irely without its bright side. Certain grades of cotton goods are in fine demand. The lower for goods are calculated to stimulate demand and men with their fingers on the pulse of retall’ trade anticipate an excellent demand for cotton mill prod- ucts, Then, too, the quality of cotton will ‘have much to- do with tl amount the planter obtains for his crop.

The South, notwithstanding the above situation, is adequately pre- pared ‘to meet conditions, Fewer farmers are totally dependent on cotton than ever before, and the other crops are yielding fine returns, with the exception of sugar in Louisiana. The tire trade is counted on to absorb a tremendous amount of tire cord fabric, and this will ald many mills, New England experts say that while a cotton spindleage of at least 800,000 is mow offered for sale or removal in New England, those plants with sufficlent capital reserve to- tide over present conditions will pay their way again become distinctly profitable enterprises, pro- vided dead wood is shaken out.
