he has been the chairman of the ALL
important committee on interstate and
foreign commerce. With all of the rate
bill legislation pending this has been
one of the most important committees
in action.

Another leader to go down in the
melee is James T. McCleary of Mime

Big SLUMP IN
TOBACCO MARKET

New York, Nov. 9.-There was a
sensational break in the American to-
hacco stock on the curb market today,
following the adverse decision of the
United States circuit court on Satur-
day. That decision was announced
after the close of the market, when
American tobacco was quoted at 3T5.
Soon after the opening today the curb
was flooded with selling orders and
within the first thirty five minutes
stock had sold down to 348, a decline
of 27 points as compared with Satur-
days closing price.

umn in the recent presidential scrap.
He failed only by a few thousand votes.
1t is probable that his near success,
however, largely contributed to the
success of legislative activities and as
a. result he seems destined to reap a
substantial reward, despite the fact
that he lost the vice presidency.
1t will be the irony of fate IL Kern
loses the vice presidency and in the
action gains senatorship. And there
will be many who think that he will
gain by the transition, for there are
many men In the United States senate
