has been engaged in the preparation
of the veto message. which one OF
his conhdants says will be the great

To House Next Week.
The executive expects to return
the resolution to the house. where
it originated, next week together
with his veto. Whether at the same
time he will resubmit the Versailles
treaty with the league of nations

Hitchcock has predicted, is a matter
of speculation even among Mr. Will

PRICE CUTTING
HAS EFFECT ON
MANY MARKETS
All Commodities Are Breaking
Under Widespread Move
ment for Lower Costs.

New York, May 22.-Influenced
by the nationwide price-cuttine'
tation that is steadily =,
ground, the principal conn
markets of the country cont,..ued
today to mark down" quoted
values. Cotton, sugar and corn op-
tons broke violently here and in
Chicago and cereals and provisions,
including pork, also answered to
sharp reactions. Significance was
attached to the drop in the pork
prices as marking the first pro-
nounced break in high-priced food
stuffs.
Liberty Bonds Recover.
The stock exchange showed inn
provement on sharp recovery of
Liberty bonds and Victory notes.
A large part of today's liquidation
in cotton and grains was attributed
to the further scaling down of
credits by banking institutions here
and in other reserve centers, evil
IDENTIFY in conformity with the re-
quest of the federal reserve board.
In the local cotton market May
contracts broke almost 400 points,
with equally sharp reactions in New
Orleans. The Liverpool market
also reported substantial reactions.
Metals Quoted Lower.
Domestic and foreign metal mar
kets quoted lower prices for spot
and future deliveries, silver proving
the only exception at slight raise
in London. Little business was
done here in copper for immediate
delivery.
Dealings in Liberty bonds and
Victory notes failed to reach the
huge totals of the two preceding
days, but most of the days business
was on an ascending scale. Virtu-
ally all the Liberty issues closed at
the days maximum quotations, gains
extending from l per cent to 3.O4
