STOCK MARKET
PRICES TUMBLE
TO new LEVELS
BY ELMER c. WALLER
UNITED Press Financial Editor)

NEW YORK, Nov II. W.H-The
stock market took another terrific
setback today, prices tumbling down
rapidly when bear raid was start
cd in United States Steel.
Millions were clipped from the al
ready impaired market values in
the raid which started after there
was some semblance of recovery
coming back to the market. Trad
ing was at another tremendous
mitch, going at the rate of more
than 100000 shares for the three
hour day.
Tickcrs were running way behind
at the close and traders had great
difficulty attempting to find the
exact quotations on the floor.
The setback came to the market
after what had appeared to be a
rally. Steel had eased down to with
in an eighth of Il point of its low
and then across the ticker came the
word "steel l65h." That was an
error but steel had gone to l63h
up Il points. Strength came in.
Then came the bear raid and steel
shot down.
1t went to new low for the year
at 153l2. The entire market follow
cd.
From 1914 the Premier Industrial
sawed back and forth in bewild-
ering rapidity. 1t rose to l57. A
minute or two later tickers flashed
80. Then came 1854; 1856; l54 in
Intervals of few minutes. A few
minutes before the close it was. at
lj4h. .
As the final gong neared the earl
Ter gains from lows were being
squeezed out, and support was lack
ing all around. New lows for the
year were made III hundreds of
stocks.
Curb prices suffered with stocks
on the big board. Chicago prices
were forced down as much as 20 to
80 points, making up for the lost
time in closing Armisticc day.
Grains in Chicago broke abruptly
and cotton at New York made new
lows for the season, several positions
getting below the II cent level

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. UR)-
Information alleged to involve a
number of nationally prominent men
and women in large liquor transac-
tions was before the Justice Depart
ment today, the United Press learned
authoritatively.
The case closely interlocks with
the governments New York indict-
ment against Count Polignac, head
of the Go-Bart Company and rep
resentative of foreign champagne
company, on charge of conspiracy Y
to violate the dry law and of alleged
smuggling of liquor
1t was also understood details in
the case had been sent to the White
House.
The case involves the operations
of an alleged bootleg ring, its custo-
mers, and the activities of federal
Officers.
The Justice Department has re-
ceived from the prohibition bureau
data that prominent New York
business man had a bootleg ring
smuggle 245 eases of liquor from
abroad to his suburban estate. Later
the man, after dry agents learned
of his cache, surrendered the liquor
and it is now stored at the army
base in New York.
This information, together with
data that a prominent moving pic
ture star, former dipolmat, and
several nationall prominent women.
were the "best customers" of the
bootleg ring, had been turned over
to United States District Attorney
Tuttic at New York.

PROTEST
MADE TO
WILBUR
Secretary Holds Hearings
On Division OF Power At
Boulder Dam.
CHANGE NOT LIKELY
Swing Asks Increase For
Several Cities. In San !

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

- WASHINGTON. Nov. ~. W.D-
4 Representatives Cf western inter
ests dissatisfied with Secretary of
Interior Wilbur's recent ALLEGATION
Of Boulder dam power were schc
dulcd to be heard by him today, al
though the United Press was In.
formed there w:.s little likelihood
That the original power "set up" will
be changed.
At short session Wilbur received
statements from eight western ap.
picants and notified the representa-
tivcs TO return later in the day for
another hearing.
Representative Sizing, Republi-
can. California, presented applica-
tions for power on behalf of Saa
Rcrnardino, Riverside and Anahcim
Calf.
Utah already has filed written
protest with the interior depart
mcnt against the 163 mills per kilo.
watt hour rate set by Wilbur rs the
price of power Utah held this
amount was too low 10 finance the
dam and leave Il surplus and rec
lamation fund for the upper basin
states.
Nevada is expected today 10 pro-
test Wilbur's award TO il of only
ls per cent of the power. George
w. Malone, Nevada representative,
has steadfastly held the state should
have B3 per cent, Representatives.
Of California interests viii he pres
ent, but as they are seemingly sat
\ficd with the Tllocation, no pro-
tcst from them is expected.
Arizona never has signed the
seven state compact, under which
the dam will b. built. Several OF
her spokcsmcn have intimated the
STATE, unable so far to gain the
water she believes should be hers,
will tie up the project in the SUI
preme court. Hence, officials here
point out, the state probably re.
CARDS any discussion of power as
premature.
After an unfruitful effort last
month TO achieve an accord among
the larger potential purchasers of
the $4,000 horsepower TO be gen
Grated at Boulder dam, Wilbur alo-
Gated it as follows:
Metropolitan Water District of
Cnlifornia-50 per cent
City of Los Angeles-25 per cent.
Southern California Edison Com
. pany-o5 per cent.
Provision was made, however
that Arizona and Nevada each might
claim Is per cent of the power, at
the expense of the original allotces,
whenever they are able TO use it,
Provisions likewise was made to care
for the needs of several cities which
have not yet applied for power.
"Wc are willing to listen to
everybody and take their views into
consideration, Wilbur said today.
He added, however, he did not be
licvc it likely any material changes
would be made in the original allo.
. cation.
Wilbur has chosen to award ini
tial use of power to those interests
ready to sign iron clad contracts for
it. He hopes, when congress con.
vcncs in regular session next month,
to present these contracts and ask
for an appropriation to begin the
dam.
