A Wonderful Prophet

Thirteen states are required to de-
feat ratification and SO states are re-
quired to bring about the adoption OF
the amendment.
In Alabama all of the candidates
for Governor and Senator, including
Senator Bankhead, are demanding
that this question of ratification shall
be submitted to a vote of the people
with the state as a unit. This. | feel
sure, means the defeat OF ratification
in Alabama.
Iowa, another so-ca1led dry state.
refused by substantial majority last
fall to put Prohibition into her state
constitution, and this, | think, means
that Iowa will refuse to ratfy the
federal amendment.
1t is my opinion that more than
20 states will take the stand that Pro-
hibition is a question for states and
localities to handle, and in conse-
quence will oppose its introduction
into the organic law OF. the nation.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, Nov. 29-Instead of the extreme apathy and restricted price changes which usually succeed a period of exhaustive liquidation, the stock market this week was subject to further extension downward revolution of quoted values.
 Public and private advices dwelt with mounting emphasis on the greater strain to credits in London, Paris and other foreign financial centers, these finding direct expression in another adverse movement of British and French exchanges.
 The latest turn of events across the Rio Grande was responsible for the weakness of securities with Mexican concessions. Later this extended to the general list.
 General motors was the center fea- ture of the week by reason of it's wide fluctuations, but closed at a net loss of less than five points. Other motor shares were only three to ten points lower but oils sustained greater losses as group. Texas company stock out by it's actual depreciation of almost 50 points.
 Among steels, equipments and rails extreme declines of five to 15 points were only moderately recovered. Amer ican tobacco featured the high priced specialties, low quotations of 240 rep resenting a loss for the week of twen ty-two points. Much of the weeks call money was placed at seven pei cent but jumped four to ten per cent at the end.
 In the bond market, lower prices | for liberty and victory issues were properly ascribed to selling induced by the advisability of adjusting income tax returns for 1919.

FINANCE AND MARKETS
[Republican A. p. Leased wirel


 NEW YORK, Nov. z9 - The stock market was heavy verging upon weak ness, in the first half of today's short session, mainly as a result of the ma terladly lower range of prices estab- nshed by several of the highly specu- lative leaders.
 Early declines of five to fifteen points In General Motors, Crucible Steel and American Tobacco with one to three points reactions elsewhere, were not conducive to bullish enthusiasm. Pres sure was plainly of professional origin, however, some stocks making full re- covery at the first signs of support, while others made partial response Sales amounted to eight hundred thou sand shares.
 investment rails were among the first to rebound, their improvement being accompanied by the publication of numerous statements of earnings for October.
 Aside from it's sentimental effect, another break in exchange on London and Paris to new low records exerted little influence.
 The clearing house statement dis closed only d small contraction of actual loans-slightly more than eight million dollars-but excess reserves in- creased by thirty-f -four million dollars lifting total actual reserves to S71,- 5000.
 There was further lively trading in liberty and victory bonds at lower levels but rallies marked the close in those issues as in the stock list Total sales par value aggregated 313,250, 900 Old U. $. bonds were unchanged on call during the week
