THE INDIA RUBBER WORLD 



389 



Sea Island Cotton. This is practically a dead market al- 

 though tliere is some stock carried over and available at 45 cents 

 for extra choice. 



.Raincoat Fabrics. Business has been very good on 64-60 

 olive drab, but this is about the only cloth that has been moving 

 at all. Raincoat concerns prefer liquidating their stocks before 

 making new commitments on cotton fabrics, although it is the 

 general opinion tli.it prices are low, and advances will be seen 

 very shortly. 



DucK.s AND Drills. This market has been more active and 

 prospects for improvement in the near future are good. Prices 

 have not materially changed from last month's quotations. 



Sheetings. The general buying of 40-inch sheetings has im- 

 proved during the past two weeks. Mills making 40-inch, 2.85- 

 yard sheeting are comfortably fi.xed with orders for delivery up 

 to May, which is as far as they care to sell. Other light-weight 

 sheetings have also been selling freely. Ruying by the rubber 

 trade is still dead. 



Tire Fabrics. Mill quotations are still unavailable as the sit- 

 uation is the same as it has been over the past few months, in 

 which only distressed fabric is being offered. There is, how- 

 ever, a better feeling among tire manufacturers and shipping in- 

 structions have been given in some instances on old contracts, but 

 up to the present there have been practically no bona fide inquiries. 

 It is estimated that the stocks of the tire manufacturers will be- 

 come unbalanced and necessitate purchasing in the near-by month.s. 

 There is absohitely no interest in tire fabrics at the present time. 



Tire Yarns. The situation among the yarn manufacturers su])- 

 plying the weaving and knitting trades lias improved as well as 

 the demand for print cloths and other staples, so that the mills 

 are now operating in a small way with about an even break, their 

 product having been sold at a loss. The general textile situation 

 Hoks better.
