Stock Market Drifts Lower In
 Sluggish Day of Trading After
 Continued Profit Taking Appears
Active Shares Lose 1 to s Points in Morning But Some Regain Part of Ground - Farm Imple- ments Under Heavy Pressure.

New York, Oct. 27 R-The stocl, market drifted lower in light and sluggish trading today
 During the morning. the more ac. tive shares lost 1 to points. few b1eaking through last weeks resist ancc levels, but the list steadied after midday. and some of the losses were reduced.
 Farm Implements Drop
 Farm implements were again uu- der pressure. Case trooper points to new low. but then rallied f rom the bottom. International Harvester declined points to new low ground. Westinghouse Electric dropped 5, and shares selling off 1. or more included U. s. Steel. Radio, American Telephone, North Ameri- can, DuPont, Baltimore and Ohio cred point or more. Radio Keith was firm spot, gaining more than . points.
 It was notable that suspension of another stock exchange member for insolvency failed to bring out any active selling. Although the firms interests were believed to be rela- lively small, compared to those of two other firms suspended this fall, the nonchalance with which the market greeted the announcement was regarded in brokerage circles as encouraging.
 Case Weakness Explained Weakness of Case was attributed to recent publication of an analysis which suggested that the company might undertake some new financ~ ing. So Tar as could be learned, however, no such plan is now pend ing. International Harvester ap- parently declined in sym pathy.
 The death of Harry Payne Whit ney, prominent capitalist, may have caused a little selling, although n recent years the market has largely given up it's oldtime habit of de- clining whenever a well-known capi- talist dies, for 1t is not customary nowad days to leave a large estate un- der such conditions that It's settle ment will require heavy liquidation of securities in the open market.
 The news of the day and the weekend was largely in the form of earnings statements, and the trend in railway earnings continued to reflect the effects of extensive curtalment of operating expenses. net operating income for the first 24 carriers reporting for September shows decline of only 16 per cent for last year. while the aggregate for these units for the first nine months shows drop of D 1-2 per cent.
 Blame Profit Taking
 The decline in the market was regarded in brokerage circles as in t measure a continuation of the profit taking movement which ap peared Saturday. Failure of last weeks rally to carry over for more than two days was a little disap- pointing, Commission houses find that buying still tends to disappear when prices turn upward, for there is little inclination among investors to bid for stocks.
 Money conditions remained sta tionary with call loans renewing at per cent. Talk is again being heard of a further reduction in the bank of England rate.

SEN. BINGHAM TALKS
 AT WOMEN'S MEETING
Continued From First Page)

agriculturists also voted with them. probably because they can't raise wood screws on the farm. When confronted with their cam paign promises about protection the an- swer of the democrats was that the factory was probably making money on something else. Well, suppose 1t was? Is there anything wrong about making money?
 When business saw how the coal ition was functioning, it became un- easy and credit flew out of the win dow. The stock market which had been suffering from over-optimisn, ,tarted to fall and eventually ended in a crash
 Senator Bingham then reviewed the tariff situation since 1922 and showed how the democrats opposed raising the duty on pig iron despite the fact that mills in eastern Penn sylvania were losing money.
 When this was brought to the attention of the democrats and the other opponents of protective tariff, v he declared, they pointed to the United States Steel corporation, which makes pig iron for it's own lise and not for sale, and said, They arc making large profits And while we are on the subject of profits it was these same democrats who saw to it that the income tax returns of big business firms were published and as a result a business man could sec just where his competitor stood and just what h. weak points were. Under treatment such as this was it any wonder that the con- fidence Of business was shaken?"
 In speaking of the eighteenth amendment the senator said it was "unwholesome. unwise and not like ly to succced.'
