Weekly Cotton Review
By Associated Pres,

New Orleans, June 29--New high levels for the bull movement now under way were made in cotton last week July touching $40 at its best. Highest prices were toward the end of the week when the trading months showed net gains of 1S1 to 270 points Closing prices were l0t to 152 points net higher. Realizing sales from the long side caused the recession from the top-most levels.
 The buying of the week was mainly due to the constant unfavorable weather con ditions over the belt growing belief in a small crop and estimates from private crop reporting bureaus which pointed to a very low report on condition to June 25. This report is due Tuesday morning and many traders predict that it will be the lowest on record for the day. The ex- istipg low score made in 1917 is 70.3. The lowest private bureau reports ranged from s93 to 6s.9 percent of the normal.
 At the end of the week the outlook was for much more favorable weather oyer the belt for Sunday and trade com ment quite generally was that liquidation Monday probably would be hastened by a good map. The bureau reports are due at ten o'clock Tuesday morning and will contain statistics on condition, acreage and the indicated yield this season. The condition figures will compare with 7o.6 on May 9 this year and s5.S on June 20 a year ago. The acreage will compare with the revised figures last year of 37. POT. .00o. The only indicated yield figures furnished by private bureaus were Il. 200, 900 bales.
 It will be a very short week in the cotton markets since trading will cease Thursday evening owing to the observ- ance of the Fourth of July holidays.

Weekly Financial Review
By A,.ociatsd Prss,

New York, June 29.--Events of the week on the stock exchange emphasized with greater force the paramount influence of the money market and the economic changes which are expected to follow the ratification of the peace treaty
 Call loans repeated their recent 15 per cent maximum, but speedily fell back to 5 per cent when 1t became evident that much of the uaid-y ears large disburse- ments for interest and dividends were we'll in hand.
 Bankers discouraged the idea Qt an in definite continuance of easy money, pointing out that the moving of bumper crops and demands of general business were bound to impose heavy burdens on capital for the balance of the year.
 There is increasing recognition that the conclusion of the conference marks the expansion of operations in the domestic fields of commerce and industry, making money less available for speculative pur poses. /
 Progressive improvement is noted in the diminuition of labor difficulties, in- creased production and maintenance of prices. Export conditions in the steel and iron trade are especially encourag- ing, sales for May having been the larg- est since December, 1917.
 Figures dealing with the country's re- cord breaking foreign trade balance for the fiscal year will not be obtainable for another fortnight, but present indications point to an enormous increase over May returns, which showed an excess over the imports of $3,506. .000.000.

"BOLSHEVISM'' ON TRIAL OPENS
 ALCAZAR FOR WEEKS SHOWING

The much talked of "Bolshevism on Trial an adaptation of the well known novel, Comrades written by Thomas Dixon, opened at the Alcazar this morn- ing for a weeks showing.

The picture, which is the timeliest photoplay of the year, is the latest of the releases of the Select Pictures corporation, and has made quite a hit throughout the dis trict where it has been shown.
 '.Bolshevism on Trial is not a propa- ganda picture, nor is it war film; it is thoroughly interesting and exciting lrama of love and adventure. The story of the play is based on the much dis cussed topic of communistic rule and the menace of bolshevism. In an interesting way the picture brings out the point hat America might be easily susceptible to the teachings of bolshevism and that

He becomes a fanatic on the question and seeks a place where his principles may be tried out with no fear of interference. Without the knowledge of his son, the father buys Ventura. an island off the Florida coast and it is of fered to Worth for the establishment of the socialistic colony
 The colony is established and but little time elapses before free love is instituted and all moral boundaries are broken down. The people live as cattle, and soon the island becomes barren place Worth is imprisoned and later rescued by Barbara. and they then return to the states. where they are married, and as. all good stories end, they live happily ever after.
