Readjustment in
Copper Industry
Making Prowess
huet for Year Likely to Exctwl
1,100,000,000 Pound
Cotton and Oil Returning
To Normal Conditions.
By HOLLAND.
The VU Street Journal hi pub.
lulled in estimate o( the total talci
of copper In the first 10 montht of
the present year. Iheie sales were
in excenn. according to thi eitimate,
of 85l).UOO.(HW poundi. Should the
talcs in November and December
amount approximately to those of
October, which were 140.000.000
pounds, then the total ale for U
month will be a little over
1,100,1X10,000 pounds. A lorrtcwhat
enforced coincidence between the
copper talcs measured in poundi and
the alr of itate, county and mu
nicipal bonds thiS year is suggested
by the fact that the sale of these
bonds measured in dollars is utmost
exactly equal to the estimated sale
of copper measured in pound?.
Were It not for depression and the
STumulallon of very Ian surplus stocks
of copper the uln thin ir should have
h-en tin! fur from l.tOO.i'OO.UOi) pounds.
'I'hls copper situation should be conaldsred
In association with I he altuatlon In all
and cotton. All three show a convincing
tendency toward perfect readjustment
' from which will follow normal conditions
and th"n Increas-d prosperity.
Condition In South Improve.
Tiia rottnn altusllon aa It m-ss In tha
lata summer chamc.,! In such uddn and
even ictncuir manner aa to ba aura
to inaka thts rtianxa one of the tradltlona.
It liiillraled readju-tment not exactly In
tha roiton trrowlnir Imluatry but in cotton
manufacturing and In tha world'a demand.
It haa unproved financial conditions In
ni.nl ta uIm.Jb rf al ail In nlh., nmrtm
of tha country.
Soon after thla change In the rottnn
altuatlon ram almost over nlitht, another
reverse action altogether favorable took
place In tha oil Induatry. That had been
really depressed. It wsa neceaiary to
reduce Hayes and In all many thouaand
operatives were laid off. Then, no one
ran tell esartly why or how, the favorable
reveme heitun. There wa an Increaae In
the price of Pennsylvania crude oil and
aoon after another Increaae. Home of tha
leadera In the nil induntry ventured to
say that the corner had been turned.
Jleartjtistment had begun. The Industry
was approaching normal and healthful
i conditions. The Increaae In price of crude
was no muro nun in. woraing out
of the law of aupuly and demand.
, KcailjiiHtnient Vnderway,
Therefore It la now possible to report
that read.luattnent In three of our Impor
tant Industrie haa begun and la contin
uing. It haa Involved reduction of wages
considerably dhiow the large wage pay
ments which were made In war daya and
wore continued until recently. Thla means,
increased employment, tn many caaea very
large Increase., and conaequent large pro
duction together with a reasonable stabil
ization of prlcea.
A chart which was published a day or
two ago by the Wall Street Journal makes
visible demonatratlon of the change In
the oil situation. It ahowa that the alt
uatlon haa Improved alnce aummer. Tt
also shows'that from January 1 to July
1 of thla year the oil altuatlon was very
unfuvorable. Of course when the price
of Pennsylvania crude oil dropped from
16.10 to 12.31 and when Mldcontlnent fell
from 13. SO to $1 no other calculation wa.
needed to prove the extent ot the depres
sion. Until about August of thla year' the
leaders In the copper industry, which la
one of the leading American mining In
dustries, found themselves in a fog, so
to speak. Some of them frankly con
fessed that they could not see far Into
the future. . it bad been necessary to
lsy off many thousand miners, the price
dropped to a figure considerably below the
actual cost of production. Various meth
ods were taken to aurvlve thla embarrass
ment. One waa an agreement not to sell
but Instead to carry millions of pounds
of surplus of copper. Soon after the cot
ton and tho .oil. situation favorably chang
ed from 'actual depression to reasonable
encouragement, the copper Industry began
uwarua Sinn iznunn or rea.tinsrment wtm
taken. These Involved present or con
templated reduction of wagea and also
a large financing of copper sold, to for
eign nations, especially to Germany,
Cotton, Oil Stabilised.
Here then tire three industries, cotton,
oil and copper lit which readjustment haa
begun and which If continued will lead
to sound and therefore prosperous con
ditions. - Tn the case of cotton wages
: were not Involved, at least so far as the
cotton plnnters of the south were con
cerned. But a reduction of wagea to a
reasonable and 'yet generous basis waa
found necessary' In both the copper and
the oil Industry,
Some of the smaller industries, small
In comparison with copper and oil, are
also rejoicing In the fact that stabiliza
tion with its consequent Improvement tn
business haa begun. Thla is true of
the American cotton-oll business, rrob
nbly no corporation relatively suffered
greater depression since the armistice was
signed than did this industry. Not evon
in or after the panic of 1907 or tha earlier
panic was Its business so greatly Impaired.
New it Is beginning to do hUBluess profit
ably. Readjustment has been completed
and the manngers of the corporation have
directed its finances with admirable skill.
'Ilia result Is that thla industry, as Is
...t .nra niin some inner oi in. smaller
industries, la now gaining the benefit of
heroic readjustment.
Possibly early In the year the effect of
readjustment and the stabilization of
wages and prices will be noticed in the
ateel and Iron Industry. As that was one
of the last to feel the effect of depres
sion. It Is thought probable .that it will
be among the last perfectly to recover.
Now York Cotton.
New York, Nov. 15. Pressure Increased
in today'a cotton market aftsr an early
upturn, and prices dipped 20 to 23 points
under last night's close In the afternoon
trading, but the day's third and final

the generat list back a bit . above the
level of Monday.
There was continued Improvement In

Market, Financial and Industrial News of the Day
1
unancia
By ALEXANDER DAJ4A NOYES
Chicago Tribune-Omaha llee Leased Wire,
New York, Nov. IS. The course
of cveuts showed pretty plainly that
the financial markets are not at pres
ent in the mood to be greatly i
fluenced by an event like the anna
mcnt conference. An , irregular re
covery did indeed, occur' on the
stock exchange, but it was only par
tially sustained and the- market
closed in great irregularity, foreign
exchange, whose response to the plan
of reduced army and navy programs
would be natural enough, advanced
a fraction further in today's early
market the London rate going
to 3.97 but all the early gain was
lost in the later hours.
It might be said, perhaps, that the
incidents of this week's markets up
to date have been mainly interest
ing as a study in financial psycholo
gy. The practical question is, how
ever, what light they throw on the
actual tendency of those markets.
No Cause for Drop. '
If the fact of the disarmament pro
posals was not likely to send prices flying
upward, on the other hand, there was
certainly nothing in them to cause dis
couragement, and the actual movement
must be Judged, therefore, independently
ot the Washington conference. So far
as regards the stock marktt, it is a
reasonable inference that the failure or
anything; like a vigorous autumn trade
revival to appear has checked disposition
to bid up prices. No one now doubts that
we shall at least have to wait until the
spring for another important recovery
In general business.
On Monday, when cotton prices sud
denly rose 13 or 14 per bale. Wall street
was informed that the cotton market, at
all events, was responding to the dis
armament plan. The explanation was
not very convincing, and In fact, today's
cotton prices declined, though recovering
at tne last.
Except for January, 1929, when England
bought to cover her eastern textile orders
more than her usual amount, last month's
shipments of our cotton .to the outside
world exceeded largely those of any other
month since March, 1916. Compared with
a year airo, October's exports were actu-
ally doubled.' The question ' which' the
cotton trade may presently be considering
is the extent to which - even a crop of
7,000.000 bales or more, plus tha 1921
"carry over," would cover consumers
requisitions, if they were to continue; or
expand on the present scale.

Chicago Grain
By-CHARLES D, MICHAELS.
( hlrugo Tribune-Omaha lie Leased W ire.
Chicago,' Nov. IS. Bearish influ
ence predominated in the wheat
market and at no time until just
before the close was there more than
a W-ccnt rally. The undertone was
heavy from .the start and when the
highest prices were made at the in
side they showed 77yc under the
high of the previous day, with the
close on a rally of Vit, with
net losses of 1H-H May leading.
Removal of hedges on sales of cash
corn to the seaboard advanced the
December -sc at the last, while May
was unchanged. Oats closed f,c and
rye 2344c lower.
Strong commission houses, headed
by those with eastern connections
and brokers who generally act for
the leading interest, were good sell
ers of wheat and found support lack
ing until toward the. close. There
was rather persistent buying of De
cember and selling of May, partly in
the way of changing over hedges,
and the December finished un
der the May,' against Sc under re
cently. Scattered liquidation was on
ill the northwest, which had consider
able influence here. The closing rail
ly was due to evening up on the part
of the pit element and buying of De
cember by commission houses.
Houses with seaboard connections
bought a little December early,
. Milling Demand Spotted.
The break to tho low point wss on
a report of new crop Argentine wheat
being sold c. i. f. Liverpool, at equal
to 6c under domestic. - .
Domestic milling demand was spotted,
with Kansas City reporting tho bulk of
the light receipts there carried over un
sold. Local milling sales were 16,000
bushels with receipts 28 cars. .
Cash houses wero active buyers of De
cember corn to remove hedges against
sales of around 800.000 bushels to sea
board exporters, partly for winter storage,
and with limited pressure and light coun
try offerings, the price averaged higher,
closing at 46o after selling at 47c early-.
May waa easy, but the strength in De
cember offset tha weakness in wheat.
Sales of cash corn in all Dosttlona In
the west In the last two days were estl-
mated at as high as 1. 500.000 hushela.
but In soma quarters this figure was
