PRIEST DEPL0RES
 LACK 0F RELIGION
Father ToWney Finds Attitude
 Toward Church Changing

Rev. James P. Towey of the Paulist Missionary society deplored the lack of religion in this country at the Tuesday evening services at the mission for non-Catholics at St. Mary's church last night. -
 Father Towey 7tated that his ex- perience as a missioner in the United States reveals the fact that the sAmerican people have made many radical changes in their attitude to- wards churches and church claims. He stated that one fact stands out better than any other and that IS that the people, as a general rule, instead of being members Of one church or another in the belief that "one church was as good as an- other" now ignore the churches saying that Ito follow the golden rule is enough" and churches are no longer needed.
 He stated that among the so-call- ed 'intellectuals" newer attl'ude has been taken recently which was expressed in a recent publication as follows: Every man has the right 10 work out his own conception or moral and religious truths" It Is no wonder then that chaos and anarchy are found on every side ana churches are losing ground daily, he said.
 This does not hold true for the Catholic church. he asserted. "l'h- ont hesitation, 1t dismisses all man. made theories, he said. The issue IS decided for the Catholic by Goo Himself who speaks with authorlts, and the church. The Catnoic church holds its membership pc. cause Christ, the teacher. estabiisheo unon the earth a living. visible or sanitation known as the church, tEe primary purpose of which IS .e teach in His name and to govern 4n all that pertains to religious life.
 Everyone deplores the lack Of re. ur,on. which is everywhere ano nvervone knows that many are leo astray by these easy going platltuocs about the golden rule" God II needed much more than the rule, he said, He stated that the Catholie church claims that He can be 1oune and that Hi. voice can be heard to- day just as truly as 1t was in Calico 1900 years ago.
 The mission services will be con tinued throughout tho week pegln ming at 7:s0 o'clock. The lecture 10 night will be given by Father smy, I m "The Real Presence of Christ

DULLNESS
 SEEN IN MARKET
No Selling Pressure and No
 Demand to Buy

New York. Nov. 3 CP-Extreme dullness characterized todays stock market, with the main price trend downward. Election results appar- ently had been anticipated as there was no rush either to buy or sell stocks and the decline in many is- sues reflected an absence Of de- mand rather than a pressure to sell. Weekly steel trade reviews failed to disclose any important change in that industry, calling attention to the activity In the Pig Iron market and the quietness of the demand for finished steel The financial news tickers indicated the heavy rail orders towards the end of October may have been sufficiently large to enable tho United States Steel Cor poration to report an increase in un- filled orders last month, whereas a decrease previously had been ex- pected in most quarters. Steel com- mon was hammered below 13S after having held close to 140 during the morning.
 Banks called about SIP, 100000 in loans but call money was in plentiful supply and the rate held steady at 1-2 per cent the reduction of over s5o,o00,0o0 in brokers loans last week testified to the improvement in the credit situation.
 Wall Street Opening
 Stock prices moved within narrow and irregular limits at the opening of today's market. Renewed activ- ity and strength of the oil shares, despite the. announcement Of an- other large increase in Crude oil production last week, and the heavi- ness of the motors were the early contrasting features. A gain of 1 point in Dupont was offset by initial declines of a point in U. $. Steel common and American smelting.
 Erratic fluctuations characterized the early trading with the market apparently making no decisive response to the election results. i Another decrease of over $50, ,0oo,. 900 in brokers loans in the week ended last Wednesday, which was announced after the close of the market on Monday, was regarded as constructive factor. General Motors made up its early loss and moved 1 IA points above Mondays close while U. S. Steel common nearly made up Its opening loss of point, but the higher prices attracted fresh offerings and prices slid of again. With the exception of the merchandise shares, which were heavy, the rest of the market tended i upward, early gains of to nearl! 4 points being registered by a score issues before the end of the frs half hour but with the greatest ac tivity in stocks in which specia developments are pending. Foreig, exchanges opened steady.
 The selling of U. s. Steel, whicl went down over two points to l37a seemed to be good lead for tn professionals to follow in the ab sence of any other development in f'uencing prices either way, and the. promptly offered down most of th popular shares. Quite a number o stocks gave way to the extent of {; point or two. with strong buying o equipments around midday failing l. check the downward trend.
