Thomas Gamble, Mayors Secre-
tary, Savannah, Ga:
Palmer is running in preferential
primaries in Georgia, Pennsylvania
and Michigan.
tSigned) Charles Nicholson,
N. Y. World Correspondent.
There are only forty-eight states
in the United States. Palmer is a
candidate in three, one in the East,
one in the South and one in the
West. Of course the other forty
five states do not count. In Pennsyl-
vania large element of the Demo-
cratic party is opposed to him and he
will have to fight for the delegation
from his own native state.
The returns from the Democratic
primary in Michigan, which was held
April 9th, show that Mr.. Palmer ran
last out of five candidates, including
Mr.. Hoover, who announced that he
was not a Democratic candidate,
Governor Edwards, Mr.. McAdoo, Mr..
Bryan and Mr.. Palmer. The first
four urged that their names be taken
off the Democratic ballot, and stated
that they were not candidates in the
primary and did not want to be voted
on. Mr.. Palmer was the only one
who made an active campaign in the
state, and he ran last, being defeated
by all four of the other candidates.

A Shampoo That VIII
Not Whiten The Hair

The serious objections to cheap
shampoos are that they contain i'm
purities and alkalis. They burn and
deaden the hair, deprive it of life
and color, make the scalp and hair
dry and eventually white. Only
natural blends of the purest and most
highly refined Cocoanut and Palm
oils as blended in Shuco Shampoo
should be used. Shuco Shampoo is
a perfect specialization suspended in
a solution that easily changes into a
bushel of rich, creamy, bubbling and
sparkling lather.
Apply to the moistened hair and
rub well adding water and shampoo
as needed. 1t vanishes all dirt, dust
and dandruff, rinses out quickly and
perfectly, leaving the hair soft as
velvet, light and fluffy. Your mirror
will tell you why Shuco Shampoo
makes hair with a thousand lights.

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

The overwhelming Republican VIC
tory in the Maine election, true to the
prediction, proved to be big factor In
yesterdays market. The financial com
munity looked confidently for q. ".
T. majority, but nothing like the big
figures rolled up by Mondays election.
Most Of the leading bankers and close
students OF the political situation take
this record breaking majority as
meaning that the election of Senator
Harding Is assured.
Many old traders yesterday. asserted
that from now on until the election in
November politics is going to be a big
factor in the shaping of market values.
In fact, some went so far as to state
that politics, before the second Tuesday
in November rolls around, may change
the whole aspect of the market.
''It will be the first time in my ex-
perience," said an uptown broker yes
terday. ''if the market does not start In
svun and discount the presidential cleo
ton. 1t seldom makes mistake, and,
with few exceptions, the tape has al
ways proved a reliable barometer. Since
the majority of the market world, ap-
parently, are leaning toward Senator
Harding, would not be afaid to gam
bic there is a nine to one shot of there
being a considerable bull movement in
the making"

A Budget OF Good News

at Is always the case Of famine or
food of good news" said an uptown
broker yesterday commenting on the
multiplying developments which cropped
up distinctly in favor Of the construc-
tive side of the market.
Coming in town" he continued,
"the first thing to strike my eye was
the big headlines telling of the sweep
ing. old fashioned Republican victory
in Maine. In another column of my
paper | found encouraging evidence of
a gradual clearing up of the strike sit
uation. Accordingly, l landed in the
Office in bullish state Of mind, which
was further encouraged after reading
President elect Obregon's statement re-
garding his plans for the development
of Mexico. This was topped of by the
dispatches announcing the granting Of
the higher pipe line rates by the In
terstate Commerce Commission, supple
mented later in the morning by the
news of the material betterment in the
freight car loadngs.
There were other elements of a dis
tinctly constructive type furnished in
the further gold arrivals. the relative
easy condition of the money market and
the completion of the arrangements in
relation to the federal tax payments

sequential affair for some time past, and
