NEW YORK COTTON FUTURES
NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, May S.--A reactionary
movement attained considerab Bile Roadway
in cotton today, and after declines of Is to
% points soon after the opening there was
rise, until, in the second half of the
session. the trading months were 80 to
40 points higher than the close of yester-
day. July sent up to "A SIC pound
after having sold off to % SOC October
sent TO % 75c after having been as
low as %. 26c. The close was at net
gains on the day of II to 30 points with
July "a SIC and October at % 64c
While most brokers considered that
much of the buying of the day was done
by shorts who wanted to cover. it was
new buying entering the market.
based on reports of better spot demand
in the interior generally, continued I'M
satisfactory weather conditions over large
areas and the unsatisfactory start of the
new crop generally. Poor cables were the
main reason for the opening declines but
their efforts were soon lost.
Low temperatures. still persisting in
more northern parts of the belt, aroused
bullish sentiment. and were made all the
more prominent by the frost warning for
the western portion of Tennessee. There
also rumors that snow had fallen
overnight in localities in the north central
belt
Complaints were numerous that seed
was not terminating, and that young
plants were dying in sections where tenn
peratures were unseasonably low.

NEW YORK. May S.-The cotton
market was much less active and the
excitement accompanying the heavy
selling and severe declines of the
past few days appeared to have sub
sided. There was some further
liquidation at the start, but offer
ings were much ngnter and after
selling at 23.S5c at the opening
July contracts advanced to 24.71c, or
Sc points from the lowest and 81
points above yesto days closing.
That delivery closed 26.f3c with
the general market closing steady
at net advances of "A to 45 points.
The market opened irregular at
decline of . to As points on the old
crop months and Go points on
September while new crop positions
were > to higher. There were
great many overnight selling or
ders around the ring, brought in by
the big break of the previous day
and liquidation of May was stinulat-
ed by the issuance of notices, esti-
mated at 49, 100 bales. These early
offerings were soon absorbed. and
the market turned firmer o.. cover
ing and trade buying presumably
against call c ton. L looked as
though May notices were being
quite promptly topped and after
selling off to 2a95c at the start.
May advanced to 25.S3c III the late
tr.ding, while October sold up from
22.S2c to 23,331 with the general list
showing Let adva ces of about SO to
81 points in the late tracing. Last
prices were within few points of
t, best. Business was compara-
lively quiet after the first half hour
and the bulk of the buying.
Some uneasness was noted over
the low temperature in the north
west but otherwise weather condi
lions were favorable and local
traders were talking the probability
of a fairly good showing by the
weekly report of the weather bureau
tomorrow. The department o f COM
merce figures on consumption for the
first eight months of the season and
worlds stocks as of April l were
commented upon as about in line
with recent compilations, but led to
some discussion as to whether the
bullish view of statistics might not
reassert itself at the lower level of
prices. Port receipts today 7,101..
United Stated stocks 417,S5 EN-
ports 10,019, making 1,305,634 SO far

PLAN BUSINESS CODE
Rotary Delegates Will Discuss Pro-
l. gram At St. Louis Convention

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 8.-More than
10000 delegates to the fourteenth
international convention of Rotary
clubs here June 1928. will discuss
programs for the Introduction of
standard codes of ethical practice in
all lines of business and professions,
it was learned Tuesday.
This discussion of business ethics,
it is predicted, will meet with much
opposition. Many delegates from the
British Isles and various parts of the
British empire will come to give their
views. The fate of the plan hinges
on the question of whether or not the
business interests throughout the
world are ready to adopt the stand
ard codes and If so how they can be
persuaded to do so, according to Ro-
tary leaders.
An elaborate program has been
prepared for the convention. Ad
dresses will be made by Vice Presi-
dent Walter Head. of the American
Bankers association; Sidney PASCAL
of London. England; Sherman Rogers
of New York, and others.

Hooper Works Squad Hard

Princeton, N. J., Oct. o.-Work was renewed with vengeance for Prince tons football squad yesterday after noon following the weak showing made against Johns Hopkins Satur- day, for with Georgetown coming here this week and Notre Dame the fol- lowing Saturday the task before Coach Roper is no easy one. The Tiger for wards were given a stiff drill in break ing through and tackllng. while the backs and ends had session of scrimmage with two backs taking out one end and the third man carrying the ball.
 Kicking drill also was stressed as slow bunting cost the Tigers many yards last Saturday. Legendre and Van Gerbig got the ball away faster than against Johns Hopkins and at the same time kept good distance. Ken Smith, whose drop kicking prom ises to be a heavy asset of the Tiger attack this season, drilled with Win gate and Dinsmore in this department of kicking.
