Rails averaged moderate recessions

Low priced motors and coppers

NEW YORK, November 23.-Apart
from the money market. which yield
ed none of it's stringent conditions,
and the occasional interest manifested
In washington's program of reduced
taxation. all considerations and de-
~elopments of the week were sub
merged in the nationwide readjust-
ment incidental to the virtual termi-
nation of the war.
This transitory stage has already
begun to exert its potent influence In
many branches of industry and COM
3nerce and its effect upon the financial
markets was most obvious in a fur
fher irregular reduction of quoted
values, together with a pronounced
elimination of operations.
The cautious attitude of corporate
interests toward peace problems
found expression in several announce
ments of reduced or suspended divi-
dends. Trade authorities dilated upon
the doubtful results of war contract
cancellations. especially in the steel
industry, where the labor situation
game in for more serious discussion.
