PLAN FOR ASSOCIATION : .
OF NATIONS IS BEGUN
Interesting Facts Developing
Concerning Europe's Stand
Toward New Plan '',*
(By United Press) -

Washington, Nov. 8. (By L. G.
Martin)-Primary work on the plans
for an association of nations promised
by President-elect Harding, is al
ready well along, it was learned to-
day. AS result of what is being
done, it is expected when Harding is
ready to take up the question his ad-
visors will be able to give him COM
plete information on these points.
Conversation going on now be-
tween certain influential republicans
and persons in foreign capitals is al
ready developing interesting facts
concerning Europe's attitude toward
an entirely new association.
These exchanges have been, of
course, entirely unofficial and in
formal and Harding has had nothing
20 do with them. The information
thus obtained, however, is regarded
as much franker expression of the
foreign view point than anything yet
received.

HOGS MAKE GOOD GAIN -...~
DURING ENTIRE PAST WEEK

South st. Paul, Nov. 9.-Election
week found farmers and livestock
shippers in many quarters too busy
tending to their voting duties to
market much live stock, and receipts
dropped off both here and around the
western circuit. The result was that
prices were boosted in all depart
:ments, but before the close Of the
week dropped back on cattle and
sheep, the hog market alone holding
its gains. Improvement of consump-
tive demand with higher prices in the
fresh pork trade, lighter receipts and
a good demand locally from shippers
brought about an advance of 81 in
hogs last week, bulk Of sales at the
close being $3.50 ito 1895. Best
pigs closed at $3.50 to $12.75.
After running start last Monday
and Tuesday with prices generally rs

feeders selling mostly from $500 to
$3.50, were weak 70 quarter lower.
Receipts of cattle and calves at the
seven principal markets, last week
showed loss of around $4,000 head
compared with the previous week.
