Much Variation in Curb
Tone During Past Week

NEW YORK. May 27.-There was
good deal of variation In market
tone and price movements on the
New York Curb Exchange during
the past week. many stocks making
new high records only to fall back
to a substantial extent. while 9TH
ers after such reactions showed re-
newed bullish activities and yester-
day again lifted their high levels.
A special feature in the market for
oil stocks was an advance in Gulf
OH of go points, to $50. The record
OF transactions on the New York
Curb Exchange included the ad-
vances in Standard Oil of Indiana
from 110k to lis and Standard Oil
Of Kentucky from So to ss. both new

COTTON ADVANCES
in ACTIVE TRADING
Expected Bullish Government
Crop Report Responsible
For Upturn.

NEW YORK. May 27.-There was
a fairly active day in the local cot
ton market. with prices making a
further good advance on buying OF
a more general character. The
maximum rise carried prices up 25
to 80 points over yesterdays clos
ing before the end of the first hour
July selling at s21.0s. October
s2o.73. December s20.53 and Janu-
airy s2O.35. Most traders started in
today to anticipate the bullish ef
fects on general trade and market
sentiment of what is now generally
expected will be a bullish govern
ment crop report for the first con-
dition of the crop as of May 2s,
due Friday afternoon, June .. Many
believe it will make the condition
under 20. which would compare
with Sc the very low average last
year. and the worst condition on
record of 624 two years ago.
A crop estimate put out today by
the American Cotton Association's S
newspaper made the acreage as low
as $4,000 COG and the condition of
the crop only ss. 1t made the
rather far-fetched statement, how
ever, that this indicated a total
yield of only S.500.OOO bales, against
the trades present general ex-
pectations of between 100000 and
100000. II the prospect of the
new crop was really considered as
indicating a yield Of anything be-
low 10000. 900 bales, there would be
a scramble to buy both spot cot
ton and futures. with very much
higher prices than those now pre-
vailing. Consequently, not much
attention was paid to this private
report of such a low indicated
yield.

Lack of NelU Issues
Features Bond Market

NEW YORK, May 27.-Fewer new
bond issues were fioated on this
market during the week than for
any week since early in April, and
that, 1t might have been expected,
would give dealers time to get rid
of recent issues and clear the road
for another brisk upturn in prices.
Other factors have been at work
simultaneously. however. SO that the
week has closed with no very great
variation in the bond list taken as
a whole. The Interstate Commerce
Commissions sudden and substan-
tia. reduction in freight rates. for
one thing, has left many traders a
little uncertain about the future.

BANK LOANS NEW PLAN
FOR SOLDIERS BONUS
No-cash Feature Approved by the
House Fcrdney
Issues Statement.

Washington, March 3.-UEaHimous
agreement to eliminate the cash fea-
ture of the soldiers bonus except in
the case of men whose adjusted SER
vice pay would not exceed $50, was
reported by the special subcommittee
Of Republican members Of the house
ways and means committee.
In lieu Of cash for the other service
men it was agreed to add a new provi-
sion TO the boi.uS bill under which the
men accepting adjusted service certitl-
Gates could borrow Immediately on
those certificates from banks a sum
equal to SO per cent of the fetal ad-
justsd service pay, computed at the
rate of 81 ii day for domestic service
and &1.25 day for foreign service.
This official statement Of the agree
meat of the subcommittee was issued
by Chairman sEcrdney:
1.-The subcommittee, consisting OF
Chairman Fordney, Messrs. Green.
Longworth, Hawley, Treadway and
Copiey, have tentatively agreed upon
and prepared "a provision to be SUBJ
mitted which in substance is as fol-
lows:
'"ERe elimination of the cash feature
of the bonus bill where the veterans
are entitued to more than $50 adjusted
service pay, bat adding new loan
provision to the adjusted service GER
tificate title which will enable thOlders
of such certificates to borrow from
any national bank or bank or trust
company Incorporated under the laws
of any state 30 per cent Of ~ae sum
of the adjusted service pay prior to
September 80, 1925. This date was
fixed because after that time the bill
as originally drafted by the committee
provides for a larger percentage of
loan by the government and has not
been changed by ethe subcommittee.
Chairman For,dney said this plan
was expected to meet with general ap-
proval, since it enabled the soldiers
who may be in need to obtain cash I'm
mediately after the issuance OF the
certificates would relieve the treasury
Of any large cash payment during the
enormous refunding operations, and
would place no additional tax burdea
upon the public.

tual figures taken from the larger in

Inmates and guesswork being totally

real value as an index to industrial
conditions" says the department.
