SHOW RECOVERY

New York, Feb. 22-Retracing the
ground lost on the most drastic re-
action suffered since the current
bull movement started. stock prices
scored a brisk recovery late this
week and pushed rapidly forward
into higher territory.
Heavy buying of the southwestern
rail shares based on the assumption
that progress was being made in
plans for new rail system, to rival
the Missouri Pacific, was one of the
outstanding features Of trading.
Frisco, katy" Kansas Southern, st.
Louis Southwestern. and Rock Is
land issues responded to reports link
ing these roads with consolidation
developments.
A spectacular rise in Baldwin
Locomotive to the highest level in
five years, followed by sharp ad-
vances in other equipment shares,
testified to Wall Streets belief that
last years poor earnings would be
counteracted by the steady placing
of large railroad orders. Oil shares
resumed their upward movement I'M
der the leadership of the Pan-Amer-
lean Petroleum issues, which re-
Sponded TO an increase in the an
nual dividend rate from s. to Sc.
Foreign exchanges were sluggish
during the week. Demand sterling
fell below S4.76 and French francs
continued to waver as vague talk of
a capital levy and additional foreign
loans drifted out Of the discussions
of Frances financial problems. The
continued ease Of money was en-
phasized as the rate for call funds
held at 8 percent for over the holi-
day.

promises to be another French "cause
celebre" If proceedings which former
Senator Charles Humbert announces
he is instituting against them ever
come to trial.
NJ. Humbert recently published a
book refuting the accusation of trea-
son for which he was tried and ac-
quilted before a courtmartial. In his
book he charges that Poincare and
Maginot conspired to send him before
firing squad.
Poincare and .Maginot, replying to
invitation Of the newspaper L'Oeuvre
offering them an opportunity to defend
themselves, wrote that they did not
desire to give the former associate of
Bolo and Lenoir chance to have the
honor of meeting them"
Bolo Pasha and Pierre Lenoir were
both executed at Nincennes for trea-
son. NJ. Humbert argues that mas
much as he was acquitted the refer
ence is libelous.

rect aftiliation of organizations Of

Watson to Inherit
LaFOllette'S Place

Washington, Feb. 21-One Of the
reasons why administration leaders
in the Senate have decided to de-
prive Senator Robert M. LaFollette
and his followers of their present
committee rank in the new Senate
was to avoid the necessity of elevat-
ing Mr.. LaFollette to the chairman
ship of the powerful interstate COM
merce committee under the seniority
rule.
This was disclosed today by Chair
man Watson of the Republican COM
mittee on committees. Senator Cum
minis Of Iowa outranks Senator La
Toilette on the interstate commerce
committee, the body that will deal
with important railroad legislation
in the next congress. but he already

mittee. judiciary, and under Senate
practices would be Ineligible for the
craftsmanship of two.
With Mr.. LaFollette removed from
consideration. Senator Watson will
be next in line for the Craftsmanship
of the interstate commerce commit
tee next session.
Republican leaders expect some
difficulty in putting through their
program for giving the insurgents
special treatment in committee as
signments, and that is one reason
why they will undertake complete
re- organization of Senate machinery
at the special session called for Mar.
