SPEECHES, he CLAIMS

tsY MORNING. JouRHkLsrgciAL LEASED wissl
Nevada, Mo-, July Ex-senator
James@A. Reed. In an address here
today, denied that he had ever in
dulged in personalities in speeches
with reference to President Will
sons position on the league of ma
tons issue.
1T has been recently said that
| referred to the president as a
braying animal" Senator Reed
continued. mo such expression
ever passed my lips, certainly not
intentionally. / was referring to
arguments that had been repeated
by many people and to SOME gross
misrepresentation and in the heat
of an extemporaneous speech did
use the expression that what / said
was true, Notwithstanding the
Drawings which were being heard,
but nothing was further from 10Y
mind than a reference to the pres
ident.
In launching into the league of
nations question Senator Reed de-
clared the republican platform Is
q stradd1e and the democratic
platform an evasion. Il.
1.-The American people ought to
tolerate neither" he said.

New York, July 24.-Standard
shares of the industrial and rail-
way divisions tended mainly higher
during today's short trading period.
Covering of contracts was accel-
Grated by prospects of an early So
luton of the acute situation in
central Europe.
Speculative shares, particularly
low priced automobile shares, de-
noted pressure which settled main
ly upon Maxwell and Hupp motors,
the former making an extra de-
cline of almost five points. Better
grade oils and equipments rallied
with rails at the steady close. sales
amounted to l75,000 shares.
Foreign exchange was respon-
sive TO the better outlook respect
ing Russo Polish relations. sterling
rising almost cents over yester-
days lowest quotation. Core
spending recoveries were made by
rates on France, Belgium and Ger
many.
Dealings in bonds were without
material alteration for leading do
nestle or foreign issues. Total
sales (par value) aggregated 3d.
$4,000.
Old United States bonds were
unchanged on call for the week.
The surprise of the day was fur
nished by the clearing house state
ment issued after the close of the
market. A decrease of $40, 100000
in reserves of members at the fed
eral reserve banks was accom-
panied by a contraction of about
S33,500,000 in actual reserves. This
not only wiped out the previous
weeks excess of slightly over $685.
