General Business Conditions by George E Roberts
The end of September shows signs of improved business with seasonal gains in shoe, cotton and woolen goods industries. Raw cotton rose from 11 to 20 cents a pound, boosting the goods market, though mills face costs if cotton prices rise further. Retailers resist textile price increases to sustain trade, while fall activity grows but profits stay tight. Wheat world supplies hover near last year, with 185 million bushels shipped between July and October and future prices tied to Argentina and Australia harvests.
