BRAND CAN'T
AGREE WITH
LLOYD GEORGE
France Firmly Opposed
to German Operations
in Poland

PARIS, May 1l.--The entry Of
German troops into Upper Silesia
would provoke intervention by
regular Polish troops, which
would mean war, and in such a
war France could not remain
neutral, according to expressions
IN official circles here today.

pressed in these circles at the
speech yesterday Of Mr.. Lloyd

COFFEE MARKET By Associated Pres.

New York June 2S--The market Tor coffee futures lost just about half of yesterdays advance during to6ay's trading. There was no material change in the news from Brazil or in the ruling of cost and freight offers. put there was very little buying power locally after yesterdays reduc- tion in the short interest. and small offerings were sufficient to depress prices. After opeing to points lower, the market steadied up slight " on reports of an advance at Rio hut later weakened selling off to 6.2Sc for September, under scattering liquidation. September closed at 6,23c bid with the general market showing a net loss of IF to 2S points. Closing bids: July, 5.SSc; Septemeber, 6.23c. October, 6,s7c; December, 664c: Jan uarary, 6.75c; March, 69Sc: May 7.15c.

 The Santos market was 50 reis higher to 75 reis lower and Rio 50 to 150 reis higher. Brazilian port receipts 10000; Jundiahy receipts 25,- 900. Nothing further was heard re- garding yesterdays rumor that the movement of coffee from the interior would be retarded b,it private cables were received here claiming that the Brazilian government would continue it's valorization policy until foreign markets would pay an adequate price for coffee.

NEN' ORLEANS COTTTON By Associated Press


 New Orleans. June 2S.-The settle ment of the British coal strike and covering movement among the shorts sent the price of cotton s2 a bale higher today on the most active months. Covering in the near months was heavier than in the distant, and July touched II .36c at it's best The opening was higher, and the market stood at an advance throughout the session, finally closing at net gains on the day of 21 to 35 points with July at II .S1c. July was by far the strongest month at the end of the day.
 More or less buying for long ac- count put in appearance and was based on less bearish feeling than has prevailed right along regarding the events of bureau day. A local estimate placed the condition of the crop at 6S.9 per cent of normal, the decrease in acreage at 30.S per cent and the indicated yield at S,10S,000 bales. Little attention was paid to another private estimate of 72.5 as the condition of the crop.
 The warning that the hurricane had moved up Into the southwestern portion of the gulf caused uneasiness. as it, was felt that the storm might skirt along the gulf coast and finally move inland over the cotton belt. Portions of the western belt contin- ued to complain of too much rain and of great numbers of weevils.

COTTON JUMPED TWO DOLLARS ON
 GOOD STRIKE NEWS
October Sold 40 Points Above the Previous Day and 133 Points Above
 Recent Low
By AssocIated Press

New York, June 2S.-The settle ment of the British coal strike was followed by an advance of approXi- mately $2 a bale in the cotton market here today. october deliveries sold up to 12.55c or 40 points above the closing price of yesterda wand l3S points above the recent low record. That delivery closed at 12.40 with the general market closing steady at a net advance of F to 31 points.
 The market opened firm at an ad- vance of II to 19 points on higher Liverpool cables and reports that British coal miners would return to work. It was anticipated that this would soon be reflected in an ex- pansion of Lancashire mill activity with a probable increased demand for raw materials from British inn porters. The settlement of the strike had been pretty generally anticipated for the past several days. however, and the news failed to cause much broadening of market interest. Pos sibly buying on it would have been more general had it not been for the proximity of the governmen crop report and after showing net ad- vances of about 30 to 40 points. the market became somewha. irregular under realizing
 Reports of a firmer spot basis in the south had a sustaining influence particularly in the case of July. Eight July notices were issued according to late estimates, but they had no apparent effect, and one of the spot firms which was credited with issu- ing notices yesterday and stopping good part of them. was a good buyer of that position today. July sold up to 1l.73 or 39 coints net higher, while December touched f5c or only s3 ponits above last nights final quota tions.
 Last prices were few points off from the best under realizing. Ac cording to a canvass made here to- day members of the exchange are looking for government report mak- Ing the condition 69.4 on the average. several more private reports are ex- peeted before the governments fic- ures are published on Friday.

Daily Financial Gossip

Some reports have reached New York which indicate that the products of the steel industry are much greater than the demand for them. At a su- perf1cial reading of this report it might be assumed that there is over production in that industry. How can there be overproduction when the American steel industry is work ing at not more than 80 per cent of it's capacity, while the world stands in need of American steel and iron commodities
 Aside from the labor issue, mean ing by that the necessity of pro- portionate deflation in wages com pared with the deflation in commod- ities, it is undoubtedly the fact that urderproduction due largely to world conditions in part explains the busi- ness depression. We have good roads. but there should be more of them. The railroads and their equip ment stand in need of great expendi- lures for improvements. If the build Ing operation of the United States were equal to the need, this would furnish some relief. We are under producing not because we lack the facilities for production. Probably American constructive mechanism is at the peak of it's efficiency. The needs of the world, enormous as they are, can easily be met by our mills and our factories. The American banking system has demonstrated it's strength. Credit conditions are much easier, and we have in addition to our wonderful natural resources a supply of gold and silver which is without precedent in the history of any nation.
 Better Than It Seems
 The business situation is better than it seems to be. That is the new position taken by A c. Bedford, chairman of the board of the Stand ard Oil Company of New Jersey. He was reported some weeks ago as hav- ing said that he was confident that the peak of the depression . has passed. He has not changed that view.

By Associated Press

New York, June 2S.-The stock market today followed its uncertain and lsnguid course. Early gains of ] to 3 points later were subjected to considerable revision.
 Overnight developments received favorable interpretation in speula tive circles. Transportations harden cd on the administration proposed to fund the country's railway debt; oils rallied sharply on reports that the Mexican government would post pone enforcement of foreign tax de- crees. and foreign exchange re- sponded to settlement of the Brit ish miners strike.
 Alternate reactions and recoveries attended the sluggish mid-session, oils and several investment rails, in cluding Canadian Pacific, showing pronounced pressure with several of the obscure specialties.
 Prices attained highest levels in the flnal hour on a demand for steels and equipments which extended to oils, motors and rails. Crucible and U. S. Steel finished at substantial gains, as did Baldwin Locomotive Mexican Petroleum. Chandler, Read ing and Southern Pacific.
 Announcement was made after the markets close that the dividend on American Ice common had been in- creased to per cent from {.
 call money was less plentiful, the rate rising from 5 to 51s per cent towards the close, because of with draWal of thirty three million dol lars to meet government demands and anticipation of July interest and dividend payments.
