BROAD BUYING IS
 MARKETS FEATURE
General Motors and U. s. Steel
 Lead Movement

New York. July 2S P)-One of
 the broadest buying movement in re- cent weeks, inspired by the unus-
 ually favorable quarterly reports of the General Motors and United States Steel corporations, carried over score issues to new high levels for the year, or lower, in today's stock market. The volume of bus mess was only moderately heavy. but commission house advices indicated a gradual increase in public psrtici- Ipation.
 General Motors continued it's sen- sational advance by climbing over 1 points to a new high record for all | time around $176 share. The lat est advance in this stock was &C., lcompanied by unconfrmed rumors that the name of the corporation is to be changed to the General Man lufacturing corporation which will be organized with only one class of stock for which all four classes of present General Motors will be ex- Ichangeable. The reason given for this reported change is that the present name does not adequately characterize the widespread activi- ties of the corporation, which in clude. in addition to the manufac- ture of cars and accessories, the manufacture and sale of electric re- Ifrigerators. lighting apparatus and Ipanies.
 Steel shares received added stim- 'ulus from the publication of the weekly steel trade reviews, the Iron Age reporting the fact that the final week of the month was mark ed by an upturn in operations, was a fresh surprise. Fears that the failure of the United States Steel corporation directors to make spe- cial dividend distribution at this time would cause heavy liquidation of the stock were unfounded, as it rallied at last ? points above last nights close after an early interval of heaviness.
 Sugars and oils also made quick response to reports of improved trade conditions while rails gather ed strength on the announcement that freight car loadings for the week ended July IT broke all records for the year.
 Wall Street Opening.
 Responding to series of un- usually favorable earnings reports by railroads and industrial corporations stock prices again headed upward at the opening of todays market.

COLORADO MAN
FOUND GUILTY
IN MURDER CASE

DENVER, Oct. 1-(AP)-James Giar-
ratano was found guilty of first degree
murder for killing his uncle, Frank Ba-
cino' of Pueblo, here last April by a
jury in Westside court tonight, which
fixed the sentence at life Imprisonment
at hard labor in the state penitentiary.
Mrs. Rose Piscopo, jointly charged
with Giarratano, was found not guilty.
The case went to the jury at 6 p. m.
and. at $50 p. m. it had reached the
verdict.
AS the verdict was read in court,
Giarratano grew pale, but kept his
composure. Mrs. Piscopo slumped III
her seat and wept.
Lewis D.. Mowry, defense counsel,
said that motion will be made for a
new trial, and if this is denied, the case
will be carried to the higher courts.
Shoes worn by Giarratano the night
of the murder were perhaps the strong
est evidence against him. A city de-
tective testified that Immediately after
the shooting he found footprints by
the window through which the shots
were fired. He forced Giarratana to
remove his shoes, placed them in the
tracks, he said, and they fit perfectly.

not likewise sell it's copper surplus

now under the present destructive

1t is viciously absurd to contend that
surplus copper cannot also be readily
exported when rigid protection Is
accorded same. Have Congressman

Il maintain that the Arizona copr
per miner is just as much encltied to
protection as the farmer within our

ness to discriminate against the cop

just as much entitled to receive a.

CAMERON FORCES CHALLENGE MANY
DISCREP ANGLES In CARL HAYDEN,S
STAND UPON THE COPPER TARIFF

PRESCOTT, Oct. l. + Hcval A.
Smith, we'll known mining engineer
of the southwest and campaign man
ager for United States Senator Raipn
H. Cameron, replied to Hayden's
statement in a campaign speech az
Gilbert Thursday night N wnicn
Hayden voiced his opposition to a
protective tariff on copper when he
addressed a large audience from the
same platform as Senator Cameron;
here tonight.
Smiths reply to Hayden follows:
81 challenge a statement L neard
Congressman Carl Hayden make at
Gilbert last night, September so, 1926
namely that we must export more
old time prosperity that once pre-
vailed within the copper districts of
Arizona
Carl Hayden is certainly not fam
i1iar with the factors pertaining to
our domestic copper milrng industry
when he boldly and unequivocally
made that statement. 1 defy Hay
Gen to prove that our high cost
copper can compete either within
our home or on foreign marKecs with
the practically unlimited quantity OF
six cent cost copper from the Chile,
South America area. I challenge
Carl Hayden to now give US the
detailed free trade copper proof that
he so boldly stated in his May 8,
1926 telegram to the Tucson Staz
that he would furnish upon his re-
turn to Arizona
II know full we'll that Carl Hay
cen did not attempt to answer Ralph
Camerons United States senate cop
per tariff speech of April 8, 1926.
although Hayden had three months
to reply to same before congress
adjourned.
"Six months has now passed since
Ralph Cameron delivered this speech
on the floor of the U. S. senate and
Hayden has never yet dared TO sub
nit an answer to the unassailable
facts outlined there. I am one Ari
zonan out of thousands, VINO has
suffered grieviously through the
manipulative methods of those GER
tain Americans who, controlling the
eastern protected copper manufact-
uring plants, are greedily desirous
of maintaining copper on the free
list so they can import unlimited
quantities of their six cent cost
Chilean copper free of duty.
II have a right to demand state
ment from Congressman Hayden out
lining in minute detail the basic
reasons for his champ:oning a free
trade copper policy, which policy 1
hold responsible for our present dis
tress and if continued will not alone
totally destroy Arizona copper dis
tricts, but likewise my property rights
and livelihood. Nearly all the people
within Arizona are vitality Interested
in the copper mining industry, hence
Carl Hayden should discuss it's de-
tails most thoroughly.
"The Colorado river problem can
be left for few hours without
much additional foas to the catas-
trophic losses already suffered DUR
ing the period from 1911 to 1922,
when Hayden utterly neglected the
Colorado river problem.
"Have Hayden explain how the
Arizona copper miner is going TO
secure a decent wage when forced
to compete with the slave labor of
the world during all the years and
years that will elapse before sne
Colorado river development benefits
become available to the copper miner
Have Hayden explain minutely why
prosperity rules universally within all
the protected industries os our coun-
