tThe stock market worked itself
Hsap into high fever over the Ger
man financial and credit situa.
ation at the beginning Of the new
aweek, and prices of the leading
stocks fell off from to 4 points
In the early trading today.
! AS the day advanced, and Wall

was far from hopeless, stocks
gradually worked their way back
TO the higher levels.
Trade Is Slack

Through in the forenoon, with
100000 counted in the first half
Aour, and there was q singular
lack of confusion in financial
markets generally.
The flight" from the mark
was definitely reflected by a drop
Of more than 200 points in quota
lions for the German currency.
an 8 per cent decline. Closing
Saturday around 23.70, the Ger
man mark was offered here at
A1.50 (centS to the mark, a drop
OF 2.20 cents on each mark.
This is by far the most violent
decline that has been seen in the
reorganized currency which, fol-
lowing the printing press debacle
Of the old mark, was stabilized
at 1882 cents to the mark. The
.SlarpeSt declines were seen in
German government bonds, which
efell off to IL points, on the
fear of a political shake-up which
might endanger the general status
aOf the bonds.

Apparently buyers were not in

MRS. SHAVER WARNS
PARTY A LA RASKOB
Seven Points Offered in Countering
Chairman on. Prohibition
Question.

BY the Associated Press.
A countering program of seven points
Of warning to the Democratic Party
was set forth yesterday by Mrs Glenn
Shaver in answer to the seven uues-
tions on prohibition recently submit
ted to $4,000 party contributors by John
j. RaSkob.
Mrs. Shaver, vice president of the
National Woman'S Democratic Law En-
forcement League, in statement said
the Democratic National Committee
chairman should remember that the
women are the most independent factor
in American pcliticS. and they will
never flock to the Democratic Party
II it favors any liquor system"
Among the other points in her COM
ment were:
Resentment of women to the Raskob
proposal Ito open the way for cease
less campaigns against prohibition in
dry States :"
Resisting adoption of any home rule
plan.
Distrust of any assurance "in Mr..
RaSkobs proposals" that the saloon
would net be restored.
THE women will not believe that a
law enforcement plank would mean
economic situation because they are
convinced that prohibition in the ratio
of its observance and enforcement is
one of the chief factors tending to les
sen suffering in these days of depres-
sion," Mrs. Shaver said.
