New York Cotton
Special Dispatch to The Star.

special DlSpatch TO Ihe star.
NEW YORK, July 14-After early
nervousness, cotton prices today ad-
vanced sharply nearly 50 bale and
May contracts made new high rec
ords for the move. World spinners
took $4,000 bales this week, compared
with only 10000 last year and fever
ish activity in manufacturing quarters
continued to bring buying orders on all
recesions Final prices showed gain
of IS to 81 points, with spots ad-
vancing 20 points to 11.60.
Though outside markets were more
or less unsettled following the sensa-
tionally fast pace of the past few days,
the absence of definite relief in South
western drought sections impaired re-
sistance to cotton prices on limited re-
cessions In the event OF anywhere
from 5000 900 to 100000 acres being
withdrawn from this years planted area
and with drought injuring prospects
west of the river, the size OF the crop
will be sufficiently uncertain to stllnu-
late speculative activity.
The Census Bureau reported 100000
bales of lint cotton consumed by do
mestic mills during the month OF June,
a new high record for the American
cotton industry. The previous hlgn
record for any single month was held
by March, 1927, with 693 900 bales. In
elusive of linters, domestic mills have
now consumed 100000 bales more than
during the corresponding II months OF
last season The total lint consumption
for IL months has been 5,535. 900, COM
cared with 4,587 900 last season. For
probably the first time on record mills
actually increased their supply OF raw
material during June, when stocks
gained 5000 bales, from l,395,0O on
June to l ,401 900 on July l., compared
with loss OF 142, 900 last year.
With mills consuming raw material
and turning out manufactured goods AZ
the highest rate on record, cotton goods
merchants and manufacturers, in many
directions, consider that the possibility
of overproduction is a real menace and
will soon become the main problem TO
be grappled with by the textile industry.
Reports from wholesale districts show
scattered sales of 64x60 prints at Z
cents, compared with cents only about
three months ago, and retail prices
have not yet reflected fully the senSa-
tional advance in wholesale prices. A
further sharp advance will be neces-
sary to cover increased production cost
under Federal legislation.

levels in the last minutes of trading

JOHN BROWNS SOUL GOES
MARCHING ON

London, Eng. (CNS) "Gallows
Glorious" a new dramatic p~resenta-
ton by Ronald Cow which is concern
ed with the life of John Brown. the
American martyr whose soul goes
marching on, recently had a single
performance at the Arts Theatre, by
the Croydon Repertory Company.
To Mr.. Cow, John Brown is plainly
a hero. In this play the dramatic
movement is exceptionally swift and
clear. John Brown in his home among
his family, who are as free from doubt
and self-criticism as he is himself;
John Brown preparing for his raid on
Harper's Ferry, knowing that he and
his supporters r going TO their
deaths and caring nothing so long as
their defeat stirs public opinion; John
Brown a prisoner, stubborn and in
wardly triumphant-he is always the
same man, drawn crudely, perhaps,
but vigorously, fluently, without hes
itation. And what is true Of him is
true Of the other persons Of the
drama-his wife. his sons his daugh-
ter.
Charles Morgan, a dramatic critic
writes Of the play:
"I find it hard to believe that any

garding the growth and success of the

is of particular Importance to note
that the members receiving such small
wages in this time of depression, have
been able to develop such a service
agency.
Mr.. Witty touched upon the value
Of the "Gold Standard" and urged the
members of the two clubs to spread
the message of thrift far and wide,
making it q daily practice. He COM
mented further on the fact that since

CITY INCREASE IN RELIEF Low

Omaha is one of 120 metropolitan
cities included in a series of statistics
compiled by the United States depart
ment Of labor's children's bureau on
the status Of relief work in these
communities.
A recent bulletin issued by The
children's bureau shows that these
12o cities spent STA, $50 ,2a6 for re-
lief in 1881 and for the same period
IN 1882 spent 1910, $40. This am
cunt represents an increase Of 1914
per cent over the 1891 figure.
In Omaha during the same period,
according to the bulletin, $3.50. S37
was spent for relief in 1881, while
$427,83S was spent in 1882. This in
crease was only AL for Omaha, or
35.3 per cent less than the national
average.
In May according to the bulletin it
was estimated that 50 per cent of tho

WEEKLY SHORT SERMON
By DR.. A G. Bearer


(For the Literary Service Bureau)
Text: And he began to upbraid the
cities.-Matthew 11:20.
Ancient cities stood for the nations
to which they belonged. They dominat-
ed the affairs of these nations. Jesus
recognized this when he upbraided the
cities Chorazin, Bethsaida, Caper-
naum, and contrasted them with Sod
ON and Gomorrah, Nineveh. and Tyre
and Sidon.
Today, the sins of the cities are
cursing the nations and menacing
civilization. In America, New York,
Chicago, Memphis. and Kansas City,
are considered the most lawless
municipal aggregations Of the coun-
try. Bootlegging, ~dope-selling, social
vice, shameless murder, juvenile delin-
q%uencies, open gambling, political cor
ruption, rampant greed and graft are
at the bottom of this urban corruption.
And these sins will bring ruin as did
these of Babylon, Nineveh, Chorazing
and Capernaum, "once exalted to hea-
e and then cast down to hell"
AS we celebrate Independence Day
it would be well to remember these
things and realize that no nation is
safe under such conditions. Worthy of
consideration is the Biblical declara-
ton: "For the nation and kingdom
that will not r thee shall--perish;
yea, those nations shall be utterly
wasted"

SESSION

The New Era Baptist Association of
Nebraska, has just closed one of the
most enthusiastic meetings of its his
tory, with the Rev. J. H. Jackson, of
the Bethel Baptist Church, as its
Moderator.
On Monday evening, June 10, the AS
ISOLATION opened with the Laymen in
charge. These Nn, with Brother L.
+. Mcintosh as their leader, are max.
ing a very definite contribution TO the
Association.
On Tuesday, June 20, the Women
were in session, with their very COM
petent leader, Mrs. E. ]. Griffin Of
Lincoln, presiding. Mrs. Griffin is
working hard to put over the program
OF Christ. Some very interesting dis
cussions were held throughout the day,
and the days work ended with q SPLEEN
did annual report from Mrs. Griffin.
The State Y. w. A. an auxiliary to
the Women's Convention, was also in
session Tuesday, with Miss Ella Mae
Mills, as president. Miss Mills is a very
competent young woman and bids fair
to lead the Baptist women Of Neb-
raska some day.
On Wednesday, June 81, the highest
peak during the years meeting was
reached, with that well trained and
Industrious young Baptist minister,
Rev. J. II. Jackson, in charge. Those
who were present Wednesday know
that this day will long be remembered.
On Wednesday evening Rev. jackson
brought to the convention his annual
message. 1t was in every way a mas
terpiece. Rev. Jackson is a powerful
and persuasive speaker man with a
message. The enthusiasm shown dur

a gesture denoting that for a long
time to come he will be the man to

live long to teach the doctrines Of
Jesus Christ and to instill within the
hearts of men that all persons born Of

God. He was unanimously elected to
serve his sixth term as Moderator of
the New Era Association.
On Thursday, June %, the Sunday
Schools Of the State were in session.
with their efficient leader, Mr. H. l..
Anderson, Of Zion, presiding. The
proof that Mr.. Anderson has created a
very fine interest in Sunday School
work during the past year was shown
by the very large group Of young peo-
pie present for the session and the
outstanding part that they played on
program.
On Friday, June 20, the B. Y. P. U.

Young people, Mr.. Dacus, of Pilgrim,
as its presiding officer. A very inter
esting program was witnessed through

closing session was ileld and all pre-
sent enjoyed a marvellous sermon by
Rev. E. w. Anthony, of Salem, and
appreciated the singing by the Con-
ventional chorus with Mrs. Ada Wood

Goodlett, First e-Moderator; Mrs.
