Abstract: We establish new estimates on short character sums for arbitrary composite moduli with small prime factors. Our main result improves on the Graham-Ringrose bound for square free moduli and also on the result due to Gallagher and Iwaniec when the core $q^{\prime }=pro{d}_{p|q}p$ of the modulus $q$ satisfies $log{q}^{\prime }simlogq$. Some applications to zero free regions of Dirichlet L-functions and the $mPacuteolya$ and Vinogradov inequalities are indicated.
