Mr.. Harding is not a we'll

time he was nominated by
his party he was almost al
together a local figure in
American politics. Despite
the fact that he was elected
by an overwhelming ma:
jority, there is a distinct feel
ing in many quarters and
among many people that h.
is a sort Of syndicate Of
chest minds" instead OF a
single directing head Of the
Government. He has a
chance, by resorting often
and forcibly to public
speech making in various
sections of the country, to
dispel that notion and to set
himself UP in the minds OF
the people as a personality
and a leader of political
thought.

GAINS MADE IN
STOCK MARKET
For the First Time This Month FL
nanciaI Markt Has Displayed
Strength.

| NEW YORK, March 16.-For the
first time since early this month the
! stock market displayed consistent
! strength and breadth, many of the
popular issues registering gross gains
of 1 to 4 points today.
Passing of the federal income tax
payment period without disturbance
| to the money market and a clRarer
perspective of conditions bearing on
the general industrial situation ac-
counted chiefly for the more conf
! dent feeling. Call money opened at 7
| per cent on the exchange, but eased
to per cent in the last half of the
| session, that rate being shaded by a
full l per cent, according to reports
in many private loans. Another factor
in the recovery was the small supply
Of certain speculative favorites re-

was clearly evidenced by the premi-
ums or lOaning rates commanded by
those stocks wlfen shorts went to

Steels, equipments, oils, rails, ship

better part of their advances to the
end despite another series Of raids

Further large gold imports report

and the latest demands of the repara-

little influence. British and French

DECIDED STRENGTH
IN COTTON MARKET
Higher Prices Came After Reports
that American Banks Had Agreed
to Finance Germany.

NEW ORLEANS. March 16-Fol-
lowing sman early declines today the
cotton market made a decided show Of
strength and at one time was a quarter
of a cent a pound over yesterdays
close on the strongest months. In the
last half hour of the day some of the
strength was lost and closing prices
showed net gains of four to nine
points, May closing at 11.49 a pound.
The early declines were due to a
lower Liverpool market than expected
and to favorable weather over the
belt but after losses of eight to II
points which carried May off to 11.2S,
a much better demand arose, having
its inception in the news of the sign
ing of the trade pact between England
and soviet Russia. Manchester cablcd
over that conditions In that market
We're better and that India was begin
ming to buy clothes again. There was
much favorable comment over the re-.
lations between Russia and Poland and
on top of everything else were re-
ports that freight car loading in this
country were increasing. Highest.
prices came late in the day on the
heels of report that American banks
had agreed to finance Germany to the
extent of $4,000 bales of cotton. At
these levels prices were at net ad-
vances of 10 to "a points with May at
1855
Weekly crop reviews from private
sources hardly indicated that planting
was making the progress expected,
rains having interferred with tn
work. Sections of Texas which are
planting claimed cuts in acreage rang
ing from 80 to 40 per cent. Crop news
helped to steady the market to some
extent The comparatively poor show
ing on the close was due to realizing
by early buyers.

STEADIER TONE TO
new YORK COTTON
Market Affected by Manchester AdVices
and Absence of Southern Hedge
Selling

NEW YORK, Marc h16.-While irreg-
ular, the cotton market showed a some
what steadier tone today owing to better
Manchester advices and the continued
absence of southern hedge selling in any
important volume.
After selling at 11.S5 early May declin-
ed to 1855, rallied to 11.9S and closed at
11.S8, compared with 11.84 at the close
last night.
The market opened steady at a decline
of four to nine points, owing to lower
Liverpool cables and scattered southern
selling. Slight rallies right after the call
met increased offerings and there was
some local liquidations with the market
easing off to net losses Of some II to 10
points with July selling at 1913. Re
ports that the trade agreement between
Csroat Britain and Russia had been COM
pLet@d made a favorable impression on
sentiment, however, while there were
also reports that Manchester was be
ginning to receive inquiries for goods
from the far east. and the market turned
frmer during the middle of the day on
Wall street and local buying. July sold
up to 1916 or about 16 points net higher
hut there was no broadening Of demand
and closing prices showed reactions of
several points under realizing. The Wall
street buying during the early afternoon
was attributed partly to easing money
conditions, but the effect of the better
reports from Manchester was offset by
the Indifferent showing of the Liverpool
market.
Reports from the domestic goods
trade indicated better demand or in
quiry from South America, but other
wise showed no Improvement and south
ern manufacturers were said to be plan
ming for increased curtailment should
the demand for yarns and cloths fail to
improve in the near future.
