NEW YORK, September 11.—Ap- prehension of unfavorable weather developments over the week end failed to create much buying power in the cotton market here today and prices broke severely in the late trading un- der liquidation and Southern selling. December sold off to 17.14, or 14 points net lower and closed at that flgure, with the general market clos- ing weak at net declines of 38 to 44 o The market opened steady at a de- cline of 13 to 18 points in response to relatively easy Liverpool cables and a favorable view of early weather re- ports from the South. There was| considerable Southern selling here and further liquidation, but the initial offerings were absorbed at net de- clines of about 19 to 20 points, and prices rallied slightly on the uncer- tainty of week end weather condi- tion: Fears were expressed that low temperature would work down into the Southwest before Monday morn- ing, while there was also u possibility, in the opinion of some local trade that the tropical disturbance reported southeast of Florida might move toward the belt. This storm, how ever, seemed too remote to cause much anxiety, while it was considered still too 1y in the season for talk’ of @ cold wave lo'cause a frost scare and the market became very weak in the late trading. The failure of the so-called storm threat to make more buylng was a disappointment to Interests who car- ried long contracts over previous de- clines. This may have been respons- fble for some liquidation, and the de- | cline caught a good many stop orders ! below the 171;-cent level for Decem- | ber. October sold off to 16.95, or 44| points mnet lower, with near-month | liquidation promoted by ,the reported arrival of 10,000 bales of cotton here, presumably for delivery next month. Reports that one of the large New England plants had closed down for n indefinite period contributed to the | weakness. Private cables at- tributed the weakness in Liverpool t increased hedge selling and liquida- | tion.

BY HARDEN COLF!/ Steps are being taken toward the organization of an interindustries com- mittee of national scope designed to effect economies eventually which may mean_higher prices to the wool grower and the cotton farmer and at the same time put clothing on the backs of American men and women at lower costs. Representatives of all the varied lines of the textile industry, including domestic producers and importers of raw materials, manufacturers of fabrics and manufacturers of cloth- ing, household merchandise and in- dustrial goods, and the distributors, both wholesale and retall, together with the numerous allied branches, appear to have decided there Is a common ground for silk and wool, for rayon and cotton, and that now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the situation. No Revolution Expected. No sudden revolution in any ‘of the stages of production or in the distribution is expected to be brought about which will give the consumer more raiment or bed clothing or au- tomobile seat covers for less money than he is paying now, but it is be- licved that economies, beginning on the sheep range, the cdtton field and far-distant mulberry trees where the silk worms spin can be carried through every stage of the industry until in course of time their develop- ment will reach the consumer, mean while also benefiting business men all along the line. The industry itself has initiated the movement to bring its various branches together. The Department of Commerce has been asked to lend a helping hand and has been sound- ing sentiment with results which brought indications this week that the formal organization of a national committee to eliminate will take place this Fall, A, There are agricultural associations, manufacturers’ associations, import- ers’ and exporters' organizations, trade assoclations of wholesalers and retailers without number in the tex- tile field. They touch one another at times, but principally in a single of the industry such as when manufacturers and distributors of the same kind of textile gods will have organized contact. Cotton and Wool Contact. Nothing heretofore has been devised to bring together the cotton and wool interests all up and down both line | for instance. The proposal for the na- tional textile committee contemplates a_single contact point for every phase of all branches of the industry. It will be a committee of industry it- self, free from the dominance of go ernment bureaus, although co-operat- ing with them. Food, shelter and clothing are the three essentials of life. The textile in- dustry, using the term in fits compre- hensive sense, has reached its great- est proportions in the United States. Here, its manufacturing phase alone ranks second among all manufac- tures, with an output annually val- ued at more than $10,000,000,000 and employing rormally nearly 2,000,000 workers. The United States not only produces more cotton than any other country in the world, but it consumes more. More than half of all the cotton con- in the mills of the world is American grown, This country is also the largest producer of wool, but is largest manufacturer of this fiber and imports about half its total require ments.

It is the comparative quiet that comes after the height of the Summer season. It is the calm that settles on the Boardwalk and its surroundings and stills the rough and tumble surf. It whispers rest while you play in the healthful salt sea climate. While you promenade or roller chair the Boardwalk, ride horseback, surf bathe, play golf or tennis, trapshoot, attend the theatre, a dance or ocean pier entertainment, INGCTON = PTEMBER 12 by far the leading country of. the world, although forced to draw en- tirely’ upon forelgn sources for its raw materials. Rayon, the trade name for artl- ficial” silk, has found its real home in this country, although firat pro- duced elsewhere, Consumption of this remarkable new.comer in the textlle ranks Increased about 44 per cent here last year, and although domestic production ' gained 37 per jcent In the year, fmports more than doubled, so heavy wus the demand. The introduction of rayon into the commerce of the country has dis placed nefther cotton nor silk. This synthetic fiber has won a place on its own merits. Consumption of silk was never so heavy as it has been in recent years. Incidentally, the civil war in China may affect the Ameri- can silk market, for .the present strife {s in China's best silk-produc- ing region, and the flight of labor out of the zone, plus the death of cocoons from the booming of cannon vrobably will find an echo here, as this Orfental republic last year sup- plied about 12 per cent of the raw silk of the United States. It is proposed that the national textile committee solve such common problems as improved production, transportation, packing and handling and management. A single carton made of pasteboard may be used to transport yarn from the spinner to ithe knitter, from the knitter to the wholesaler ‘and retailer, and, finally, may find its way to the home of some consumer as a delivery box Similar opportunities are numerous, and huge aggregate savings are be lieved possible.

September 11.—The City Commission issued an order today banning any further services by “Bishop” Grace, “faith healer. Riot officers called out to quell a threatened disturbance by negroes be fore the city hall had been successful at noon with the arrest of a few leaders and the dispersal of most of the crowd. Only a few score of the negroes loitered about the municipal square and these were apparently of curious nature. 1 The gathering was the result of a request that “Bishop” Grace, a Portuguese, desist from his services and halt a baptismal ceremony tomor. row, in which, it is alleged, he plan- ned to immerse hundreds of negroes who professed to-have been healed i by faith The “healer” declared that he had violated no laws and hence was un- der no obligation to refrain from ! holding his meetings and baptizing | his converts. He declared that allegations con- cerning a $3 fee for baptisms were false, saying that sums given him were “purely free will offerings.” | Clark’sFamousCruises By CUNARD-ANCHOR new oil burners at rates including hotels ides, drives and fees. . & 62 days, $600 to $1700 MEDITERRANEAN 8s ““Transylvania’ salling Jan, 20 28rd cruise, 'includins Madeira, Lis- bon, Spain (Madrid —Cordova — Granada), Algiers, Cnrthal}v.
