G. D. P. REPUD|ATED,
SAYoSTATENENT Of
SENATORD |. WALSH

BOSTON, Mass, Nov. s. AS
chairman of the national Democratic
senatorial campaign committee, Sen
|ator David T. Walsh last night gave
out this statement:
""The election returns from the
country cannot be construed other
wise than as a reputation of the
Republican party. The landslide in
New York which returns AL Smith
to the governors chair, making him
strong presidential candidate, ard
sends DR.. Copeland to the Unite1
States senate, was not local in chal-
acter.
Senator Gerry has been triumph
antly reelected in Rhode Island and
the overwhelming majority Of 1870
in Massachusetts, New Hampshire
and Connecticut, have been reduced
to the vanishing point.
1t is the verdict of the voters
upon twenty months Of the Harding
administration with it's record If
protection of privileged interests and
utter disregard of the rights of
small business and the vast consum
ing public.
when the country awakens to
the iniquity of the tariff and taxa
+yny, loo fc1o Of "a
ministration the rebuke of today
Will be turned into an utter Repuh.
lican rout in the presidential cam
paign in two years."

NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-Charles
F. Murphy, the Tammany Hall

ment last night:
II never had any doubt of Gov

full vote is a great tribute. It is
an Endorsement of his fight for

cities of the state. 1t tells the coun-
try that this state is against the
Harding administration and the Re
publican tariff law. 1t will hearten

Stock Prices
Again Climb in
Broader Trade
Average Price of Indus
trials Reaches Highest
Level Since Recovery
Started; Steels Are Firm

IN spite Of the uncertainties asso-
ciatcd with the cleavage between
workers and management in the coal
mines and IN the railroads, spectators
yesterday continued TO view the future
outlook optimistically. and further bid
up the prices Of speculative and IN
vcstment securities. The volume Of
activity in the market broadened. and
the mean price cf thirty representa-
tive industrial shares climbed 20 the
highest level not only Of the year but
since the recovery started.
In the calculations Of III. speeula-
tive community. the stifeninc o. the
renewal rate on call money yesterday
after Tuesdays furry played no part,
since II was recognized that the con-
dltion reflects merely the withdrawal
Of funds by those who found the low
rates prevailing last week unattractive.
The higher quotation IS expected to
draw funds back 90 the market place.
Railroad and industrial shares we're
equally in demand. and the steel
stocks were particularly firm despite the
testimony Of the weekly steel surveys TO
the effect that strike conditions had
reduced steel production and resulted
in a falling OF Of new business. But
spectators regard the dislocations
from the strikes as temporary and
we're more Influenced by the report Of
the Republic Iron & Steel Company,
which for the second quarter Of the
year showed a profit for the first three
months period since the first quarter
Of 1921.
In spite Of the price deAation Of
crude oil and gasoline. oil shares were
steady and Mexican Petroleum. which
lends itself so readily to the whims Of
manipulators, was conspicuously
strong.
In the commodity markets, there was
greater irregularity. Cotton prices
continued firm despite conflicting re-
ports regarding crop prospects, gain
ing l6 to 30 points. Wheat prices
dropped 2 TO 2h cents bushel.
Whereas speculative belief that way
would be found to adjust the railroad
strike encouraged speculation for the
rise in the security market, IL had the
opposite effect in the wheat pit.
Having risen sharply on Tuesday as
result Of press reports indicating
that the French and the British we're
getting toward an agreement looking
forward to a reduction Of German
PREPARATIONS and on adjustment Of in
ter-Allied debts. the foreign exchanges
yesterday reacted. Marks again fell,
getting within n fraction Of the lowest
level ever quoted.

Climbing Sugar Prices

The sugar market yesterday estab-
fishing a new high for the year FOR
export refined and Cuban raw sugar,
quoted AT an advance Of IS points over
previous sales, there was renewed dis-
eussion Of the possible stock market,
influence resulting from the improved
conditions Of the industry. The do.
nestle sugar market, II was pointed
out, is quite excited with tho possi-
bility Of a still further advance in re-
hned quotations. The Federal Sugar
Refining Company has been obtaining
a premium on It's product because u Is

other rehners are said % be sold

personnel Of the new Congress just
elected, which will convene on Sep

Pierce-Arrow

The selling In Pierce-Arrow yester-
day, which carried the price down 21s
points az the close, was attributed 20
traders who argue that any reorgan-
lzation plan will affect adversely the
interests OF the common stockholders.
The opinion was also expressed IN
speculative circles that the automobile
business Is now az its seasonal peak
and that the recent price cut by
Pierce-Arrow was made in order 70
stimulate ORDERS in the passenger car
field. where profits have not been sat

caused some selling Of Studebaker and
