Tariff Foolery and Peek’s Role in Trade Talks
Washington reports focus on George Peek and a set of reciprocal trade treaties, starting with Colombia.

Cotton market steady as July bales decline in New York
In New York on June 26 about 27 000 bales were tendered for July with Co ops taking the bulk. Spot buyers led the first hour while traders bought later in continuing Texas dryness and deterioration signals. October deliveries drew demand from commission houses, and early selling plus October liquidation pressured that line. Eastern belt reports showed better conditions as dry weather allowed field cleanup, keeping a strong tone and potential for higher prices if Texas stays dry. Continental Motors Company listed in receivership but the firm is not in receivership.
