Philadelphians Buying Securities

In the matter Of the Investment situa-
ton, Mr.. Law continues:
philadelphia investors are making
larger purchases of long term securi-
ties. This buying Is increasing, and it
is broad enough to show that the public
is becoming once more heavily inter-
ested In safe securities. 1t is expected
that about $500, 900, 900 will be avail
able for reinvestment with the maturity
today Of the great Anglo French $780,
OO0.OO0 loan. Heavy buying Of sea-
Soned railroad securities has been based
on the natural improvement in the in
benefits accruing to the railroads from
the enactment of the new transportation
act. It is recognized also that the
higher freight and passenger rates now
in force will be of immense benefit to the
roads and result ultimately In rehabili-
tating their financial position. The in
dustry is developing increased efficiency,
and II Is believed that the employees Of
the Pennsylvania system will respond
favorably 20 the appeal of President
Rea for the most definite CO operation
with the officials in giving the public
the best service possible"
Improvement in Foreign Exchanges
The pessimistic tone which charac-
terized foreign exchange dealings in the
first part Of the week, has given way
to more hopeful view. Although
prophesies of any sort are entirely con-
jectural, brokers are inclining to the
belief that the worst of the depression
Is over and that continued improve
ment will be the rule In the weeks that
follow.
The trend Of the market gives some
tangible basis for this expectation.
Starting, as II did, on rates even lower
than the previous weeks heavy market,
a rally set In for both sterling and con-
tinentals which held to the upward
tendency towards the end Of the week.
Bankers who deal largely in foreign ex-
change asserted that the weakening of
the pound sterling could, in great
measure, be traced to the labor unrest
In England. The reaction that mani
tested itself In sterling, about the same
time that the strike began to look
avoidable. seems to justify their ex-
PLANTATION.

lNDICTS OWN PARTY'S RECORD.

1t would be difficult to imagine,
more scathing Indictment of the
present Republican-control Con-
gress than that uttered by one OF its
own leaders, Representative James
r. Mann of Illinois, former republic
can floor leader in the House. Speak
ing on the floor OF the House re-
Gently, Mr.. Mann said:
congress has been in almost con-
tinuous session for almost year.
The republican side has reasonably
large majority. II we say to the
country, as we will say ii this rule
passes, that the republican majority
in a years time has been unable to
bring in legislation and perfect 1t
where it is subject to amendment, IT
capacity. 1t will be called to the
attention of your constituents on
every stump that the republican
party has not enacted much recon
structive legislation, and it will be
told in addition that the republican
majority of the House was afraid
to enact legislation under the
ordinary rules and was lncapaclta.-
ed from, following the ordinary
prohibiting amendments to and
limiting debate on the bonus bill, a
bill Intended to raise a billion and
a half dollars. The steering com,
mittee" had ordered the bill Q. kd
by it to be passed, or no bill at al,
and both democrats and republic
cans denounced the rule because it
forbade them the opportunity OF
even offering amendments to, re-
move Objectionable taxation features;
Minority members desired to amend
the bill to raise the bonus money by
taxing war profits, but the steering
committee had ordered the tax
passed to the consumer.
The rule having been adopted, we
have Mr.. Mann's word for it that
the republican party acknowledges
it's impotency and incapacity.

One reason why the American
Federation of Labor Is SO strongly
opposed to Senator Harding, aside
from the straddle on labor evolved
by the Republican platform makers
in Chicago, is found in the fact that
Hardi ing voted for the Esch-Cummins
railroad bill with the original anti
strike clause.
Senator Harding also voted to
limit Federal control OF railroads to
six or twelve months after the end
of the war, while organized laDor

ESSENCE OF REPUBLICAN
PLATFORM.

The outstanding features Of the
platform as adopted are in brief:
Complete avoidance of any pledge
to ratify the treaty Of peace with or
without reServa atoms.
Endorsement Of the action of the
republican senators in regard to the
Of the foreign policies of Wash
ington, Jefferson and Monroe.
Promise to work for the establish
ment of some kind of International
arrangement for the peaceable ad-
justment Of disputes between nations
without the sacrifice of American
sovereignty.
Condemnation of President Will
son for proposing the Armenian
mandate and commentator for
the senators who turned it down.
Sweeping denunciation OF Presl-
dent Wilson watchful waiting
policy in Mexico and a pledge to
adopt a firm and consistent policy
for the protection Of American lives
and property everywhere.
A declaration in favor OF the
principle Of arbitration laid down in
the Cummins-Esch railroad bill for
the settlement OF strikes in public
utilities.
Endorsement Of the principle of
collective barga ming as the best
method OF MAINTAINING industrial
peace.
A. pledge to enforce all laws, with
out Specifically mentioning the pro-
hibition amendment.
Condemnation of the Demo-
cratic administration for failure to
enforce the laws against protiteering
and refusal to suggest remedy for
the high cost OF living.
Approval OF the act of congress
aiding soldiers and sailors, but
avoiding the soldiers bonus issue.
