A sixth district review notes a general advance in wholesale prices led by corn cotton livestock and leather with a downturn in industrial production. Retail distribution fell seasonally while merchandise stocks and sales declined. Bank credit demand rose sharply and money market conditions eased due to period end contracts. Cotton production for 1927 is estimated at 13 492 000 bales. The boll weevil remains a major factor. Debits to accounts and bank savings show declines from year earlier.
