Bismarck, N. D., Nov. 2.-"R Re-
gardless of the election result. we
are like John Paul Jones, we've just
begun to fight to putsoyer the indus
trial program" would sum up the
expressions OF Governor Frazier,
Commissioner Hagan, State Execu-
tive Committeeman r. II. Walker,
Representative Vogel and others
who attended Monday luncheon at
the governors Office Leading leag-
uers from Burleigh, Morton, EN-
mons, Mclean, Logan, Slope, Oliv-
er, Mercer, Divide, Kidder. Grant,
McHenry and other counties were
present and gave unmistakable ap-
proval to the sentiments of the
speakers.
Above Board Campaign
I'VE have conducted an honest,
open and above board campaign,
because we stand for truth and Jus
tice while our opponents conducted
a campaign of deceit and fraud, be-
cause they stand for selfish inter-
ests." said the governor. They
managed to fool many voters who
sincerely believed that they were
honest fn their professions.
Regardless OF the result OF the
election, we must continue to hold
the line until the average man that
voted against us will see that condi-
tions In this state and the conduct
OF the states industries are worse

and we believe that the attitude Of
League members will be exactly
opposite to that of their political
opponents during the past few years.
We will bring no obstructive liti-

Leaguers will stand by their or

to see that l. ". A. promises are full
filed. 1t has never been an organ

they must have the offices to get re-

Some have suggested that the
League should contest the result Of
the election on account of wide
spread fraud practiced in the circu-
lation OF the recall petitions. There
is no doubt that fraud was res0rted
to-. But the League accepted the
challenge and unless it develops
that fraud was resorted to in the
election Itself the League will ac-
cent the verdict.

y The farmers organization is
stripped to It's bare strength. The
long battle has left the weaklings
by the wayside. Those who could
be blurred or intimidated have
dropped out and it has left their
political opponents with only a
slight state majority. Leaguers
have made a record to be proud Of.
The principles for which they have
been lighting are not defeated, and
continue to stand stronger than
ever. III

Commissioner John Hagan said
in part:
We have got to go to work to
protect and preserve the Nonparti-

whether we win or lose. This is
merely battle in our war with the

sued by Judge Lowe, who is here
holding term OF district court, and
who will try the case next week.
The law prohibiting the display Of
the red flag in public was initiated
BY the |. v. A. and was voted on by
the people of the state, who ap-
proved It. AS far as we know this
lis the first time since the law was
passed in this state that anyone
was arrested for violating it.

Easier Money
Is Signal for
Market Rally
Professionals Bid Up Stocks
When Call Rate Drops
to 9 Per Cent; Rails
and Motors Are Higher

Professional traders, finding it diff
cult TO depress security prices anc
making little profit out of dull vacilla.
tlons, were eager to find an excuse
yesterday FOR bidding up quotations
Early in the day price movements were
irregular and contradictory, but de-
cline in the call money rate at i O'Clock
from 7 to per cent was the signal
| for rally
In the upturn, which was moderate
rather than sharp, the railroad and
motor shares were conspicuous. but
the volume OF total transactions re
mained comparatively small, contract
| ing tritle as compared with the
previous day, though not shrinking to
last weeks standards of inactivity and
/ listlessness,
! inevitably attracts new participants to
/ the. Stock Exchange, the market is
still under the sway of floor traders
and brokerage Offices still present an
appearance of emptiness. From a
technical standpoint the really favor
able aspect of the marketplace is the
absence of outsiders in the role of in
sistent sellers. The pressure Of neces-
sitous liquidation which caused a series
of crashes in speculative prices late
last year has plainly been lifted. AS
result experimental professional
traders found it difficult to wrest
profits out of operations for a decline
1t Is natural for them to test the pos
sibilities of slow upward movement
to discount the beneficial effects of a
recovery in business. In recent weeks,
wholly professional in character and
narrow in fluctuations, the marketplace
has reflected little more than uncer-
tainty regarding the immediate trade
outlook. In some commission circles
yesterday an effort was made to call
attention TO the possibility Of an i'm
provement of railroad earnings in the
spring as an argument for purchasing
1ail stocks now.
In the grist of the days news was an
unusually large number Of annual re-
PORTS Of corporations measuring de-
velopments in 1920. AS a rule they
brought out few facts that had not
Teen in 8 general way anticipated. The
surveys of Ajax Rubber and CASTOR,
Williams & Wigmore revealed poor
earnings ands were translated into
lower quotations for the respective
stocks.
An increased Offering of sterling bills
by holders who desired to take ad-
vantage OF present high rates-high as
compared with those prevailing since
last summer-tended TO check the ad-
vance in sterling yesterday.
In the grain market profit-taking
after the recent rally caused declines
in wheat and corn quotations. Cotton
quotations, which have been fuctuating
within narrow boundaries, yesterday
were slightly easier.

Regular Air Rrake Dividend

The dividend meeting of the New
York Air Brake Company yesterday
was watched with unusual interest in
the Street, in view of the reports that
cut in the 10 per cent rate might
be ordered. Apparently, however, there
had been no thought Of reducing the
rate distribution in the minds OF the
directors, and they declared the regular
quarterly dividend of $3.50 a share,
announcing their decision after the
close of the market. In statement
issued recently President Starbuck said
above the annual dividend requirement
of $1,0o0,0o0 on the S1O.000,o00 capital
stock. Air Brake moved up in the late
trading yesterday apparently in antici-
patton of the action taken by the board
At the close it showed net advance

Hard to Satisfy

Apparently recognizing the trend Of
call money rates in the outside market,
the bankers reduced the lending rate
on demand loans to per cent at the
Stock Exchange yesterday. Interior
banks with balances here to lend are
said to have been complaining lately
because their correspondents here were
unable to place these funds at the 7
per cent rate quoted on the Exchange.
"Tf you can't lend the money at cut
the rate to 6 or lower and put it to
work" has been the attitude of some
of the country banks. But then when
rates have been reduced in the past
the interior banks have had way of
pulling their money home, the local
bankers say.

More Dividends Reduced

Reduction in the quarterly dividend
on the common stock of the South
Porto Rico Sugar Company from 3 per
cent TO "a per cent caused drop in
the stock of Ia points to 7s1a yester-
Day. The Quaker Oats Company also
reduced the quarterly dividend on the
common stock from per cent to 1h
per cent, This action apparently had
been anticipated as the stock has been
weak on the Chicago Exchange for sew
eral days. The Lindsay Light Company
passed its regular dividend of per
cent on the common stock due at this

The Dollar i'm Foreign Exchange

The climb of demand sterling which
has featured the foreign exchange
market for the last several weeks,
most recently in the last two days, was
checked yesterday when an increase in
commercial bills caused a reaction of
cent after the rate had moved up to
above 1892. The net decline was about
one-fourth cent.
Despite the reaction, however, the
closing price of $3.91A was above Mon
days final Sterling has enjoyed an
advance in other financial centers, too,
as advices from Buenos Ayres yester-
day said that a gradual improvement
there for several weeks had carried
the English pound to 47&, virtually
at par with the peso.
The advance in French francs here
yesterday was about the only market
feature, demand moving up to 7.47c
cents as compared with 1850 Tuesday
Rates on other Continental centers i'm
proved, rejecting probably political de-
velopments regarded as of favorable
nature.
Scandinavian rates moved in the op-
posite direction with slight losses on
Denmark and Norway.

Allied Chemical

The news that the company plans TO
increase its outstanding capital by
seeking authorization for the issuance
of $6O0O0,000 of additional preferred
and 100000 additional shares of no
par value common stock took the stock
holders of Allied Chemical and Dye Cor
roration, the new chemical consolida-
tion, rather by surprise, judging from
the action of the stock yesterday. The
common broke 4 points net on turn
over of approximately $4,000 shares,
while the preferred yielded 21a points.
Wall Street is inclined these days to
look upon as bearish anything that
adds to the burden of securities Of
any corporation.

The Sao Paulo Loan

Bankers here were still in the dark
yesterday with regard to the reports
that the BRAZILIAN state of Sac Paulo
had gone to London and borrowed
f6,000,000 from the banking house of
Schroeder & Company. No further ad-
vices were received beyond the first
meagure reports. In international
banking circles the opinion was held
that the British treasury restrictions
upon foreign borrowings in the Lon
don market might have interferred
with the fotation of the loan there.
One banker said that in view of the
Aatness of the local investment market
London was welcome to the Sac Paulo
commitment.

Recent heaviness in Central Leather
common and preferred stocks is sale
to be due TO the anticipation Of poor
annual report to be issued by the com.

is expected that deficit in excess OF

raise some doubts regarding continu.
alton of the preferred dividend. The
general expectation is, however. that
there will be no change in the rate II
the immediate future.
