sufficiently drastic to eliminate a
good part of the technical weakness
resulting from the over-eXtended
long accounts in the speculative
leaders.
Substantial declines in the active
issues brought many down to levels
where they we're again attractive to
conservative buyers. AS a result of
the stronger inside position and
the demand by bargain hunters, the
whole list displayed a better tone
in the earling dealings"

CONVENTION HALL, KANSAS
CITY, June 13.-Thad H. Brown of
Columbus, former Ohio Secretary
of State. is not going to seek the
Republican nomination for Senator
from Ohio, delegates learned today.
Brown managed Hoover's campaign
in Ohio and because Senator Fess
temporary chairman of the conven-
ton, was a candidate for delegate
at-large on the Willis ticket, Brown
thought he would oppose Fess, but
political leaders have persuaded him
to keep out of the race for the sake
of harmony.
