BRITISH COTTON LOOM FIGURES

London, July 10.

The total number of world cot- ton looms at the end of 1988 shows little change as compared with 1930, the decrease being 28,800.

The European total is 67,046 lower mainly as the result of a decrease of 104,935 in Great Bri- talo.......

There has also been a reduction of 85,322 looms in the United States, but increases are reported in Russia, Japan, China 'nod India,

The figures have been made available in the second interna- tional cotton loom census issued by the Federation of Master Cot- ton Spinners.

The total number of looma in place throughout the world is estimated to be 8,130,000, which are distributed as follows:

Britain, Japan

India, USA,

588,000 277,000 190,000 614,000

These compare with 3,159,000 'looms in 1990, with Great Britain's 698,000, India, 180,000, Japan, 188,000 and America, 699,000.

The proportion of automatic machinery looms in Europe seeme to be increasing with remarkable steadiness, there being 13,994 in Great Britain, as compared with 11,810 three years ago. An in- crense

is also shown in Japan from 15,000 to 21,000, but the United States shows a decline. Router.

The Wheat market was up, due to unfavourable foreign crop reports together with growing public in terest.
