The heavy liquidation in the New York

are responsible for the quieter tone Of

the result of the election in Great Britain

Will be unnecessary to close down any

switchmen's strike and that those which
were idle are reSuming operations is an
other factor which has checked semi
speculative buying by large consumers.
There is no change in basic conditions.
