COTTON SHOWS
MIXED TRENDS

NEW YORK, Sept. 80 G.N.SO.
The cotton market was irregular
with prices ranging about preVi-
Gus closing levels as fairly good
demand for october buoyed that
month while the July contract
sold off. Moderately good Liver
pool cables helped to sustain the
market which improved slightly
after the opening. Clearing
weather reports brought in some
selling.
With hedging light the market
was enabled to hold its own de-
spite the lack of any definitely
favorable news. Wire houses, Wall
Street, the trade were buyers as
were Far Eastern connections
which were concentrating much
Of their demand in october and
December. Commission houses
began to buy. The South, New Or
leans were supplying contracts
and locals and later spot houses
also turned to selling. Such hedge
selling as appeared seemed to be
well absorbed.
Towards noon prices continued
irregular. October was quoted at
1850, up 4; December, 1914, un-
changed; March, 1886, up l;
May, 1868, unchanged, and July,
1857, off 2 points.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-School

located in 1887 schools, he says,
adding:
"ThiS is a gain of 7.9 per cent
in deposits over year ago and
an increase in net savings, that
is, the excess of deposits over
Withdrawals, of $962,3O8, or 69.9
per cent.
"The development of school
savings within the year is re-
markabIe. Four years ago,
1931-1932, the Withdrawals ex-
ceeded the deposits by almost
$3,OOO,OOO; the following year
brought slight improvement;
last year the improvement was
so great that deposits topped
Withdrawals by $1,375, 1907. This
year affords proof that school
saving is rapidly overcoming its
great depression"

BUSINESS LESS
AFRAID, SAYS
BANKING

That business is taking full ad-
vantage Of the breathing spell be-

American Bankers Association,
according to it's current study OF

its publication, Banking"
The Association points out that
the general movement in steel,
building, and other major lines is
definitely upward. On the bank
ing side, "the amount of credit
now available is truly prodigious."

impossible that such a quantity

 becomes the lion of Red Gap Society.
 The consequence of so much
 democracy finally has It's effects
 on the butler when he begins to

GARDEN

"No Eansom," the new Liberty feature will be presented at the Garden theater, tomorrow, Mon- day and Tuesday, has a Damon Runyon story as it's inspiration such favorites as Leila Hyams. Phillips Holmes, Jack LaRue, Rob- ert McWade and others, 1t shapes up as a thoroughly diverting film that is certain to please any type of audience.
 The authors skill is displayed in the novel twists in the movement of the story, which gets far away from the conventional motion pic. ture plot. as well as in the ire. quently uproarious diafogue--all of which rises legitimately from the excellent story itself. The yarn concerns a millionaire, who, tired of living mad hurt by the neglect of his family, decides to end his life. Too cowardly to commit sui- eide, he engages q notorious gang. ster chief to do the job for him. The latter, sympathetic towards the old mans plight. ostensibly kidnaps the old man, and while he ie away at a healthy mountain rec treat, the gangster causes the re. form of each of the guilty mem. bers of the family.
 It's delightful story, interest absorbing all the way through, and well worth any fans attention. In addition to those mentioned, He'd da Hopper, Vince Barnett, Eddie Nugent and Mary Foy stand out prominently in a superb cast.
 The companion feature will be another first run picture Sunset Range, starring Hoot Gibson.
 Current attraction today con- cludes "The Best Man Wins" and Rocky Rhodes.

EXOTIC MARCO IN POLL ATTRACTION
Featured With George Raft and CarOIe Lombard in
 'Rufilba" To-day

Opening to-day at Poli's Is a double feature program that de. fies comparison, two superb fea. lures each with an all-star cast
 and favorites make up the pro- gram.
 The first feature is George Raft
 and Carole Lombard in "Rumba" and they are assisted by Margo, the exotic dancer. This is the picture that started the current
 dance craze of the same name and
 with Raft and Carole doing their
 dancing treat is in store for their admirers and both of them boast
 both with the male and female
 thcatergoer.
 The second feature brings Claude Rain and Joan Bonnet tC-
 starred. To many the name of
 Rain will be . puz2ler as here is
 a man whom you have heard on thte screen but this is the firGt time that you will be able to see
 him. He was the star of Tire Invisible Man" and his superb act-
 ing in that role in which all you heard was his voice caused 30
 much comment that the producers of that picture have been deluged with requests that he make pie ture where he will be seen and heard, and "The Man Who Re- claimed His Head," which is the title of this feature is the answer and 1t will delight all who see it. Starting Wednesday, Polls makes a ten-strike in the amusc- ment world when 1t brings to its stage, in person, in addition to the regular program of the theater, Baby Rose Marie, radios biggest little star''---a Juvenile performer
 who for years has always been a top-notcher in the amusement
 field; a little lady who to-dsy claims the salary that wh:ie vaudeville bilrcould be bought for, and then some to spare. She Is the current sensation of the National Broadcasting Company networks where she Is featured on Sunday
 noon and Monday night on the
 '"Tasty-Y east" program from coast
 to coast. She will make her only
 Connecticut appearance at Polls
 so all should avail themselves of
 the opportunity of witnessing the
 peer of all juvenile rtars, and who
 has held that position on the air,
 on the stage, radio and also the
 screen.
 Tn addition to this sterling stage
 program Wednesday, Thursday
 and Friday, there will be the regu-
