Prices at farms heavy type 14, light type mostly 4. Cotton NEW YORK (AP)-Cotton futures No 2 closed 5 cents to $1.90 a bale lower Thursday. Current-crop months were active, with final losses running upwards of 95 cents a bale. Trade selling was persistent, and this in turn induced commissionhouse liquidation. Observers thought the trade selling reflected increased harvesting of the cotton crop this week, after clear weather broaden in the growing areas.

Some guesses were that it would be as much as 300,000 bales under the October official forecast of 10,618,000 bales. The smaller crop prospects are attributed by the trade to freeze damage to the crop in Texas early last month and losses from excessive rains and lowering of grades in other sections. The average price for middling 1 1-16- inch spot cotton was unchanged at 24.93 cents a pound for the 12 leading markets.

No. 2 futures closed 5 cents to $1.90 bale lower than the previous close.

CHICAGO (AP) Soybeans futures advanced nearly 6 cents a bushel on the Chicago Board of Trade Thursday and corn and wheat moved ahead around cents, but all three came under late profit taking. Soybean oil and meal, oats and Iced broilers also advanced in price. Trade was very active and mixed.

Commission house activity, indicating public participation, was heavy. Soybeans, corn and wheat had opened on a strong tone, from to cents a bushel higher. There followed some profit taking but prices then forged ahead under new buying and short covering. A strong factor in the buying of deferred corn, wheat and soybeans options was a report that wheat and oats planted in soil that had carried corn infested with blight earlier had been found damaged in Mississippi. The extent of the damage reportedly was light, but the trade considered the possibility that next year's crops, planted in once blight-infested soil, might also be damaged.

After soybeans had pushed ahead cents, and corn 4 cents with wheat advancing cents, prices held at these high levels for about 30 minutes before profit taking set in. Oats also moved ahead but trade was slower. Soy oil and meal prices were weak for about an hour, and when beans turned strong the end-products also advanced. Iced broilers closed on an irregular tone after an early display of strength. At the close, soybeans were up around cents.

November 3.04½; wheat was cents higher, December 1.78⅞; corn was up nearly 3 cents, December 1.51½ and oats advanced cents, December 83 cents. Cash Grain 1.77n; CHICAGO No 2 (AP) Wheat No 2 hard red soft red 1.82 n. Oats No 2 extra heavy wh n. Soybeans No 1 yellow 2.98½n. Soybean oil 14.50 n.

"First," he said, "there was a decline in corporate earnings. There has been a tightening of liquidity throughout industry. And the total of plant capital outlays had been increasing." Standard Poor's said more companies reduced or omitted dividends last month, while fewer raised their payments or declared extra dividends, than in any previous October in the last 10 years. The October figures were 23 omissions against 15 in October 1969, and 21 decreases against 11 a year earlier.

The trend continued this week with General Motors the world's biggest manufacturer, heading the list. GM, which has been shut down by a strike since Sept. 14, paid an 85-centsa-share dividend covering the fourth quarter but omitted the usual year-end extra dividend. Last year the company paid a year-end extra of $1.50 a share. GM's 1,346,000 stockholders own 285,551,000 shares.

Among other big companies which have omitted dividends this year were General Dynamics, Jones Laughlin, LingTemco-Vought, SCM, White 1 Motor and Solitron Devices. Despite the rise omissions and decreases, aggregate dividend payments reached a reclord the annual third rate of $25.4 billion the quarter, topping $24.7 billion in dividends paid in all of 1969, the best dividend year in the 1960s. Standard Poor's reported that its survey far the first 10 months of this year showed that favorable, actions--increases, extras and -fell to 1.220 from 1,640 in the like period of 1969. as News steady, 4.50- on Thurs- Prev.
