assembly a tie at 80 Republicans to
SO Democrats.
Ever since Mr.. Edwards was
chosen governor in 1919 Mcdonald
has been anxious to turn the reins
over to a ~ccess feeling that he
had contributed his bit to party
success Mr.. Heller who is to become
chairman is a new figure In state
politics although he has been active
as a Democratic leader in Mercer
county for the past ten years. For
half Of this period he has been
chairman of the Mercer County
Democratic Executive committee.
Hcher's success in Mercer county
was one of the things that common
ded him to Mayor Hague and other
state leaders as the logical choice
for state chairman. In the election
of 1919 Governor Edwards made a
remarkable run Ia Mercer county,
esp scially in view Of the fact that it
was the home of M. Bugbee, his Re-
pub. lean rival. In the same election
Mercer Democrats elected their first
state enato and surrogate in thirty
five years. In this campaign Heller
directed the fight for his party, as
he has In other recent years when
the Democratic vote in this section
of the state. normally Republican,
has elways been high, particularly
in comparison with other places.
Youth ard geography are other
reasons playing a part in the inten-
ton to pick the Mercer county man.
Mr.. Heller is about thirty-flve
years of ag- anG has been in politics
since his first vote. He Is a leading
lawyer in this city and part Of the
state. The fact that he is located In
practically the middle OF the state,
in the Capitol anu center of political
and governmental activity, will n
able him t. give attention to party
interests and activities more prompt
ly than a chairman living at a dis
lance.
Democrats throughout the state
will be interested to hear of the
plans for new leadership in the state
never held a public office. although
he could nave hai several lucrative
positions, but preferred to follow his
legal calling, taking interest in poll
tics merely as a hobby rather than
for personal emolument.
The credit for landing the ward
enship of the state prison for a Mer-
Ger county Democrat in the recent
fight for that appointment in which
Mercer and Burlington county con-
tended is given to Heller, who sup
ported Mr.. Hoff. chairman Of the
county committee here. In that con-
test he had to defeat not only the
Burlington forces but a group OF
leaders in Merce.' county who were
urging another man.

Chicago Market
GRAIN AND PROyIsIoNs

Chicago. Dec. 30.-Grain markets were
greatly unsettled Saturday, breaking to
a new low for the week early, only to
more than recover the loss later. The
uneasiness apparently was a result OF
ysar end evening up. At the finish
wheat was Nc down to 1Ac up, with
May Slips to $1.22& and July $1.13S
to M.Lh. Corn closed Nc to ISc
higher. Oats varied from SIC off to
t.0Nc advance and provisions ranged
from five cents lower to 12c higher.
Scattered liquidation was on In the
wheat market with a continuation of
pressure from eastern longs at the
start. The ensuing reaction, carrying
the market to above Fridays finish,
was caused chiefly by short covering.
Trade was on a broad scale and fluc-
tuations were rapid. At time May
was off 6Ac from the high Of Thurs
day n July was off INC. December
was the most erratfc in the early deal
ings touching $1.23 on q break and then
rallying to $1.27.
About mid-session, however, business
quieted down somewhat with local
snorts more inclined to take profits and
even UP for the start of 1928. A con-
siderable amount of export business
was reported done In Manitoba, with
confirmation Of sales OF 24O 900 bushels.
Corn and oats showed stubborn re-
sistance to pressure and while lower
early displayed strong rallying power
later.
Provisions were rather dull but were
affected somewhat by the strength in
hogs.

Italy Uncertain
1t is quite possible. if the planks
placed in the new political regime are
borne out, that Italy will accomplish
in 1923 what Great Britain did in
1922. France is unwilling to cut down
outlay for the military establishment
and this means. along with the re-
quirements Of the devastated regions,
continuance of a huge deficit unless
Germany is collected. Germany's
the most disputed matter in financial
decision at the present time.
Output of New Securities
The rise in the investment markets
was continuous and fairly rapid from
June 1921 to September 1922. Then
came what has proved to be a check.
This check was brought about in some
degree by the tremendous output Of
new security issues. Total bond offer
ings which were S2,645, 100000 in 1919
rose to nearly $ 1000. 100000 in 1921
and to approximately $4,000 100000
uuilus tne past year.
While this has meant severe COM
petition for the older established bonds,
a still more important influence was
the diversion of funds into trade chan
nels which had formally been available
for investment. Rates of money inte-
rest at the same time stopped going
down and turned slightly the other
way. This tendency may be expected
to continue the coming year as all the
Indications point to a larger absorption
Of bank money in industrial lines.
At the close of the year total gold
reserves held by the federal reserve
bank were 5000. 439, 900. a rise Of
ever $3.50, 0OO. 900 in the twelve months.
The best opinion is that these gold
holdings are active and that it would
be well, if natural conditions in inter
national trade permit to. send back to
the rest Of the world a part of the
enormous accumulation which occurred
in the years following the war.
1t is quite possible that unusual ex-
penditures Of American tourists abroad
combined with the increasing invest
usent Of American capital in foreign
bonds and in foreign business enter
[%rises, might handicap credit against
this country than the visible excess
Of merchandise exports over imports
In this case gold exports would occur
and besides reducing the danger OF

New York, Dec. 30.-In the closing
dealings Of the yea the market had a
very strong appearance. In practic-
ally all groups price enhancement was
recorded Saturday, with the oil shares
in the lead. The much improved de-
mand In the oil department OF the list
was stimulated largely by the report
Of advances in Pennsylvania crude oil

Reports from the copper industry are
more encouraging and a survey of gen

prospective, at this time give much
encouragement to those engaged in the
