THE producers are organized and the

your organization is dominating prices and

highly organized picture monopoly AS
such We must object to your organization

 On New York Curb
Rr Anaoolatad Preas

New York, September 1s.-There were wide movements with the tone constantly varying from strength to weakness on the curb exchange dur ing the past week. The widest move ment was in Gulf Oil. which was bought all through the week, advanc- ing over 100 points to 6.T0 prelimi- nary to the beginning of trading in Gulf oil of Pennsylvania stock.

Bulls and Bears
 Struggle Ouer
 Stocks Past Week
By Associated Press

New York, September 16.-The ir- regular course of prices in this weeks stock market reflected the struggle for advantage between. pro- fessional bull and bear factions. con seryative interests generally hesi- tattng to engage in further commifz ments because of the rail and coaa strike situations. Some investment buying was noted, particularly of high grade railroad shares but the biggest gains were recorded by stock obviously influenced by pool opera tons.
 Reliable brokerage houses regard the future with a bit of uncertainty and most of them have requested their customers to be cautious in their market operations, Business conditions throughout the country still are far from normal but de- cidedly Ion the mend" Some sort of business revival is generally ex- pected this fall but opinions of re- sponsible authorities differ material ly on its prospective advent, Car loadings continue to increase, bitu- minous coal production now is above normal and fair progress Is being made in the mining and movement of hard coal. Steel production also is steadily increasing but freight embargoes are beginning to have a restricting effect on shipments The United States Steel Corporation B announcement of an increase of $3 a ton in the price of rails on October 1 is expected to be followed by similar action on the part of inde- pendents.
 In some quarters the rise was said to have been influenced by the offers of buyers to pay delivery premiums.
 Commodity markets were un- settled during the week with wheat again selling below $1 a bushel. Cot ton prices also wore inclined to weakness, the governments condi- tion report for August showing. an inckease over last year. Weakness in wheat was attributed to war talk" and the bumper Canadian crop which Is likely to result In an ex- portable surplus of nearly 300, ,000, 900 bushels.

VOTE ON FORD'S
 BID FAR DISTANT
Effort of Democrats to Set Date For Shoals Considera-
 ton Unsuccessful

Washington, September f6.-tSpe- cial.)-Negotiatio between leading democrats and republicans of the House for an agreement on a date on which the Henry Ford proposal for Muscle Shoals would be voted upon, ended in failure today.
 The republicans refused to set a date, although they made the prom ise that sometime in the future" q vote would be had. If the President calls an extra session immediately after the elections in November for the consideration of ship subsidy. which he has threatened to do tho republicans held out hope the Ford proposal might be submitted during that extra session, but if there be no extra session, they agreed to take up Muscle Shoals not before the be- ginning of the next regular session in December.
 There is admittedly no hope that the republicans will discuss Muscle Shoals until after elections. There is doubt expressed by members as to whether the Ford proposition will be stronger or weaker after the elections.

Washington, September 16.-(sl

Washington, September 1s.-(spe- al.)-The senatorial campaign committee of the democratic party agreed today in executive session that the League of Nations could not wisely be injected into congress sional campaigns this year.
 The reason given was that pros poets are too suspicious to inject matter regarding which there is democratic division. It was added that enough progress can be made by assailing the republican record since the initiation of the Harding administration. Republicans. learn ing of the conclusion of democrats. declared that they were afraid to follow Woodrow Wilson and James M. Cox in another fight.
 The chairman of the senatorial committee, Senator David I. Walsh, of Massachusetts, was a critic of the league when 1t pended before the Senate. The only member of the committee who Is candidate this year Is Senator Gilbert NJ. Hitchcick of Nebraska.
 He led the democratic fight for the league when it was an issue in Con gross.
