b NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-Broaden-
Ing. of speculative trade and q
strong upturn in prices were out
4 standing features in the cotton mar
ket today. The opening was firm at
8 to Is points advance. Subsequent
i demand ran January contracts up
to 24.35 and March to PATS, or SO
to 81 points net higher. The close
was very steady at a net advance
} OF 81 to So points.
From the start there was little
yelling pressure in the market. The
character of buying encouraged be-
lief that part of the speculative in
terest prominent in stocks and
grains for several weeks, at last
had turned to cotton which, thus
far, has experienced no particular
advance in prices. The west and
Wall Street led in this buying move
ment which was quite general
Throughout the forenoon. One Chi
1cago group was said to have taken
kprofits on grain holdings and
Iswitched its interest to cotton. Very
hullish news also was being wired
by local operators to southern mar
kets that Improvement in business,
present and prospective, justified a

now current.
Sales by local traders around the
opening based on the idea that
severe cold weather in the south
was restricting the spread OF boil
weevil, were covered late in the day
at considerable loss.
Liverpool was a good buyer, and
the fact That 10000 bales of cotton
were on ship board at the close of
the week awaiting clearance, point
ed toward good export shipments
for the balance of the month. A
little southern selling at the adj
vance was well absorbed and the
market showed little reaction after
the start, continuing it's upward
movement practically UP to the close,
which was only a few points under
the highest of the day.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, Dec; 27.--The
cotton market developed consider
able activity today for short Sat
urday session and prices were on
the upgrade from the start. There
was a good demand, not only from
the trade, but from Wall street, and
SPECTATORS and also from foreigners.
The stimulating influences were the
ease with which the heavy tenders
on January contracts were ABSORBED,
the activity and strength of stocks,
the advance to new highs III grain,
and the generally favorable charac-
ter of weekly trade reviews. Prices
reached the high OF the day right
at the close, and active trading
months showed net gains OF So
points. \.
The local market started 16eto II
points above yesterdays close and
the opening prices were the lows
OF the day with January at, 2405,
March at 24.1S, and May at 24.4S.
The market continued to gather
strength as the session proceeded
and aside from a few minor recess
Sions on realizing, prices were OIL the
upgrade all through the days trad
Ing, finally reaching the highs right
AT the enQ, january lFdulLS at Af.4t,
March at 24.57. and May at 24.S7,
or 55 to Sc points above the previ-
Gus close. The close was very steady,
showing net gains for the day of
40 to So points.
1t was reported that notices for
5000 bales were issued here during
the morning on January contracts,
ard it is understood that consider
able more cotton will be rendered
before the month runs out. Certifi-
Gated stock here is now 1Ol,911 bales
and it is thought that practically
all of it will be rendered on January
contracts. Fall River sales the past
week totaled only $4,000 pieces of
print cloths due largely to the holi-
days.
Sentiment at close was decidedly
bullish and most operators looked
for a higher market next week il
the stock market holds. Exports for
tho day totaled 1922 bales, CT wh;cD
Houston cleared 7,427 cajes.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.--In a wave of
general buying today the entire grain
list went higher than at any time
heretofore this year, but heavy sell
ing to realize profits led to sudden
reaction at the last. Wheat closed

and July 1853 rs with corn unchang-
ed to SIS lower, ats unchanged TO

25 to 20 cents advance.
Sub-zero weather as we'll as per-
sistcnt talk about chances Of future

for the new buying of wheat. Pros
poets were for sustained frigid tenn
peratures until Monday and there
were current reports about ice Gov.

wheat being such a menace that
farmers were using tractors to break
the coating It first however, cen
siderable uncertainty as to the course
of prices here was shown on account
of the fact that European markets
seemed unresponsive to yesterdays
advance of this side of the Atlantic.
When the FISH upward swing OF
grain values got well started though.
Luying enlarged, and the rise con-
tinued until wheat had in some cases

Corn and oats swayed III sympathy

HIiteracy in the U. S.

There are more than 100000 illiterate voters
in the United States, according to a statement
issued by the National Education Association,
meeting in Washington The N. E. A. is most
conservative body, the interests of which are to
make things look rosy as possible. We may
therefore assume, that the figure is not exag-
gerated.
In the richest country of the world it is thus re-
veaed that in education for the masses it is among
the most backward of the industrial countries. The
only explanation Of such phenomenon is the
fact, long known to all students, that capitalism
is inherently antagonistic to all education except
the kind and amount necessary to produce high
ytrained class of industrial workers. Capitalism
raises the general level of education, in its first
period of establishment, just as it develops and
increases the forces of production; but also as it
quickly becomes the greatest obstacle to the pro-
ductive forces, so also does it become the enemy
of education of the masses.
Capitalism in America has, in common with the
system in Europe, passed beyond its progressive
phase. Today it represents nothing but reaction,
alike in education as in politics and all questions
affecting the toiling people
