COTTON PRICES GO
 TO HIGHER LEVELS
Bulge in Market Continues Close is 15 to 17 Points Up- No Precipitation in Oklahoma
 Continued High Temperature.

New York, Aug. S.-Still higher prices were reached in the cotton mar ket today, with May contracts selling at the l5c level, while December ad- vanced from 14.30c to 14.67c, closing 14.5Sc. The general list closed steady at an advance of 15 to F points for the day.
 The market showed quite a reac- tionary tendency during the early trading. Liverpool barely met yester- days local advance, while the crop news seemed to be more conflicting, and after opening steady at an ad- vance of l point to decline of ' points, prices sold about 10 to l3 points net lower during the middle of the morning. Offerings were readily taken on the decline to 1409c for Oc- tober and l4.39c for January. Cover ing by early sellers and a broadening outside demand sent prices up very sharply, with October selling at II .4Sc and January 14.77c during the early afternoon, or about 37 to 3S points above the low level of the morning. Offerings increased on the advance of some p to 2S points from last night $ closing figures on the general list, however, and last prices showed reac- tions of 10 or F points.
 Detailed weather reports showed no precipitation in Oklahoma and con tinued high temperatures, but private advices reaching here during the ar- ternoon indicated that there had been showers at several points there early today. Reports from Dallas said that rainfall had been sufficient to lead to an improvement in the crop condition and rather more favorable crop re- ports also were received from Sa- vannah. Port receipts for the day were 13,533 bales.
 Cotton closed steady.

JTNEY BUS OPERATORS
 WILL SURRENDER LICENSE

Little Rock, Aug. 9.-Some of the jitney bus operators and owners say that they will surrender their licenses and go out of business since the pas sage Monday night of an ordinance providing rather severe regulations for this kind of public conveyance. They claim they cannot do business under the restrictions that have been placed upon them. It is reported that another one has said he would reduce his fare to 1 cents, since the terms of the ordinance apply exclusively to motor vehicles that charge a fare ot five cents. Members of the council say that will be easily met by amend ing the ordinance to make it apply to all vehicles that charge any fare less than ten cents.
