STOCK MARKET
SWINGING BACK
TOWARD NORMAL
Quiet Session Today Is
Cause OF Belief That
Worst Is Over.
(By ELMER g. WALZER)
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-W.D-The
stock market became more like its
normal self today and there were
no wild gyrations in prices nor in
trading.
The market opened higher and
receded slightly so that the majority
cf shares ended the quiet day at
about their closing averages of yes
terday. There were few notable
exceptions such as General Electric
which was down 10 points at the
close.
Sales for the three hours amounted
to 3,l99,000 exclusive of odd lot
transactions. This compared with a
total of 7,l72,70O yesterday, de-
cline of nearly 100000 shares.
Buying orders had accumulated
overnight and traders were hearten-
cd by the recovery yesterday to-
gether with a sharp reduction Of
$656, 900 in brokerage loans.
In view of the fact that the mar
ket will be closed all day tomorrow
many sold their holdings to be out
of the market over the long holiday.
The market will open at the usual
time Monday, But there were rLmors
Of another cur.ailed session which
were not verified at the stock ex-
change where it was said no action
had been taken to reduce the ses-
sions as they had been curtailed to
8 hours the last three trading days.
Today's retreat was an orderly
one after the initial bulge that sent
stock up l to ) points.
1t was said that the market yes
terday came back without the aid
of banking support and this gave
further confidence to traders. The
outlook was for a series of quiet
markets with narrow price move
ments.
United States Steel closed at 215
off 9 points, and Westinghouse
Electric 1904 off Az.
All of these stocks were higher
in the early trading, The oils gave
a good account of themselves
throughout the short session. and
utilities for time were sharply
higher on heavy investments buying.
Coppers pcrked up as did some of
the special issues. Rails were better.

Edge. Republican, New Jersey, in
dicating they combined in, an eff
fort to persuade southern senators to
vote for the tariff bill in order to
get protection for the products of
their states, was produced by the
senate lobby investigation committee
today.
"There is one thing mighty sure"
Edge wrote to Arnold, "That some
of us will resist to the bitter end
efforts on the part of senators from
any sections to be protectionists in
their vote for products directly af.
fecting their sections and anti-pro-
tectionists for other parts of the
country. This practice in the past
has been entirely too flagrant."
Arnold replied that the senator's
letter was a valuable statement and
asking his permission to show it to
southern state commissioners of agri.
culture who, he said, were attempt.
ing TO persuade southern senators
to vote for the bill.
Edge wrote that he had no obiee-
tion to Arnold using his letter in

1T printed because of the indirect
criticism of his senatorial colleagues.
Chairman Caraway of the com

"love letters between you and Edge"
said it proved an understanding ex-
listed between the senator and Ar.

"Were you soliciting the support

President Hoover is seeking some

Ambassador Dawes, who sails to-
night from New York to return to
his post in London, has been ac.
quainted with the Presidents
views ON the entire question Of ths
wartime law of the sea. The un-
derstanding in official circles is
that Dawes will present the United
States views to the British govern

standing on the subject, the way
will be paved for drawing specific
recommendation to the London
conference for the restatement Of
the law of blockage, search and
seizure and the rights of neutrals.
President Hoover canvassed
every phase of this problem in his
conversations with Prime Minister
Macdonald during the White House
conferences last month. Although
no formula for presenting the prob
lem at the London conference could
be found at that time, the free ex.
change of views left President Hoo
yer hopeful that way could be
found to bring the question up for
carly consideration.
Prime Minister Macdonald is re.

DESTRUCTION OF

IN VOLCANO AREA
Tales OF Horror Related
By Survivors Of Guate-
mala Tragedy.

GUATEMALA CITY, Nov. 8. U.Rj
The belching crater of Santa
Maria volcano was quiet today, but
from q devastated area 20 miles
square about its base searchers re-
turned with stories of horror that
rivaled the tales Of the destruction
of the ancient city of Pompeii.
Nearly a week has passed since
Santa Maria, quiet for q years
Lroke forth in three day eruption
which is unofficiaily estimated to
have taken toll of at least 3O0
lives. Many more lie in crowded
hospitals, burned and mangled by
the falling stones and gushing mol.
ten lava of the "Vesuvius" OF
Guatemala.
1t was $3.50 p. m. Saturday when
deep subterraneon rumbIings broke
through the quiet of the coffee
plantations AM interrupted the
week end merry-making of the plan
tation settlers. The roar gathered
in intensity, enveloping the south
crn slopes ana Hlthln Il Ie" Hilh
utes, ashes, burning sand and stones
began falling over region loC
miles square.
Streams of lava gushed over the
crater's edge, rushing down the vol.
cano's slope through old clefts and
forming into rivers of death as the
smaller streams combined in the
wide crevices of the volcanoes side
Many Of the settlers were asleep
Many were victims of the intense
heat; others choked to, death in the
poisonous fumes, the dust laden at
mosphere made worse by steam from
q light rain which fell over the mol
ten lava.
Humans, plants and animals Jared
alike. Some who sought to escape
found their way cut off in every
direction by the onrushing lava and
died in their tracks.
