By United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 30.—Violent fluctuations of the cotton market following the issuance of the eleventh Government weevil report ran hand in hand with another irregular day on the stock exchange today. While cotton prices were breaking below the 23-cent level, stocks were rising to new highs, with United States Steel common leading, and then under bearish pressure declining to lose most of the gains in many instances. United States Steel ran through the day as the outstanding leader of the market. This issue was taken in large blocks and pushed into the highest ground in its history, not far from 150. New highs were also scored by General Electric, Chrysler, American Can and du Pont among others. Utilities were Arm. Oil issues were depressed with Atlantic Refining down nearly three points. Rails held barely steady and several industrials lost ground. Three New Records Describing the market, the Wall Street Journal’s financial review said: With Steel pushing rapidly upward today on a huge turnover other industrial leaders were stimulated, and this section of the market gave an impressive demonstration of strength in the f$ ce of irregularity in ttie main body cf stocks. American Can, National Biscuit and General Electric reached record levels for the present shares and brisk advances took place in American Smelting and Allied Chemicals. Strength in the industrial leaders furnished a good background for bullish operations in specialties. Colorado Fuel was actively boughtby the group which sponsored the stock’s vigorous advance last spring. A basis for this movement was furnished by relatively good earnings in the current quarter, contrasted with the corresponding period last year when a deficit was sustained. Earnings Better Having large orders on Its books, the company did not suspend its rail mill this year until thirty to sixty days after the normal shutdown date. In the first six months of 1927, Colorado Fuel earned $6.90 a share against $7.20 for all of 1926. It is estimated that the company will show about sl2 a share for the current year. Goodrich was another feature of special strength, spurting 2 points to anew high for the year at 73. Goodrich’s attractive yield on its present $4 dividend has brought considerable buying of investment character into the stock. In the first six months this year, the balance for the common stock was $7.62 a share and business for the current quarter indicates a balance for the period of around $4 a share. Goodrich’s final quarter is usually highly satisfactory because of the demand for foodwear. rubber wearing apparel and mechanical rubber products.

THESE UNITED STATES
BY LEO R. SLACK There once was much talk about a war between the United States and Japan. But during the 1927 fiscal year which ended July 1 the United States sold in Japan $267,4J1.000 worth of American products, $13,300,000 more than during the previous year. The United States on the other hand bought $418,109,000 worth of Japanese goods, mostly raw silk, or $10,000,000 more than last year.
