Waahington, Jtme 23. — Increasing | demands for cotton cloth during the | past week threw South Carolina’s! textile industry into activity which j helped to Wtablish cotton prices at; hitfiest levels since 1937, the weekly cottmi market review of the depart ment of agriculture revealed here today. This mounting domestic consump tion in the face of depleted foreign markets add^d to the bright outlook established by brisk activity in the industry. However, the department reported in cmmection with the weekly review that raycm production had reached its highest peak during 1940, with world production totaling 2381,000,- 000 pounds, as compared with 2327,- 000,000 pounds dur^ 1929. In terms of cotton equivalents, raymi production in 1940 would ap proximate something like 5,000,000 bales of 478 pounds net. Such pro duction in Germany and the invaded rountries accounted for about 35 per cent of the world totaL Japan was second with 22 per cent, the United States third with 20 per cent.. Italy accounted for 14 per cent, and Great Britain six per cent.

He pointed out, however, that Presidrat Roosevelt had full authori ty under the act to extend lease-lend aid to all countries defending them selves against aggression. Diplomatic quarters expected that Russia would not immediately re quest lease-lend, aid, but instead would aeek releaM of “frozen” Rua- slan asaets In this country and p«r- misskm to buy and export vital de fense materials.
