But the comparatively light of fering were readily absorbed at this level and the market soon turned firmer on the appearance of buying for both omestie and foreign trade interests. The absence of hedge selling ia any important Tolnme, also promotred cov ering as indicating continued firmness n Southern spot markets, and the mar ket reached the best levela of the day in the. late trading with December ell ing at 33.50 and Janusry at 33.30, and with active months showing net gains of 74 to 70 points. There was' a little more southern selling a well as real izing toward the close and last prices showed reactions of 18 to 20 points. Humor's thst government buyers were in the Southern spot markets, were de nied, but Southern adviees reported very small offerings oT the better grades with holders asking a high basis on the lower grades also, but were not confirmed and probably had little in- uence. Reports of increasing opposi tion to price-fixing also reached the rade from Washington and may have contributed somewhat to the advance, but brokers said the chief influence was he, bullish spot news and the revival of trade demand.
