"20,000 Years In ging Sing" (Majestic Theatre, to-day).This is unquestionably one of the most powerful nad thought-provoking

Blms ever made. It brings together Spencer Tracy and Bette Davis both of whom give magnificent perform- onces, Daring and dramatie, it long the public ago found favour with and its return to Hongkong is wel- comed.

"Our Relations" (Oriental Theatre, wo-day)It has long been debated whether, Laurel and Hardy can sus- tain their comedy suffelently to carry them through a full length feature film successfully. This pie- ture gives a wholly satisfying answer and proves that the famous comedians can be as funny for 50 minutes as they can for fifteen.

Stocks: The market has develop- ed a more reactionary tone in line with expectations, but selling pres sure was light. With U. S. Steck and General Motors reports out of the way, trader are now looking for freshe news to give the market Its next tread. This may take several days, but we would maintain our positions In good stocks. The price of Pitts- burgh steel scrap has advanced by 50 cents per ton.

Cotton: Increased hedge sales und the favourable Government weekly report discouraged new buy ing, which is now inclined to await the next Government crop estimate. Wheat: The market to-day was

small and exporters were disinclined to follow advances, but this class of buying is expected to resume on easy spots. Rust damage is reported to the crop in Manitoba.
