regarded him as opposed to the
Governors nomination.
His executive ability and his mis-
sionary work in behalf of the party
during the last three years have
won him many friends, and many
party leaders feel the party is in
debted to him.
Farley predicted all opponents of
Roosevelt would support the ticket
no matter what their present feel
ings.
They are all loyal Democrats"
Farley said.
At the same time he forecast the
support of many liberal Republicans
because Of the party'S outright pro-
hibition repeal stand Interest was
rising rapidly in the prospects of
Republican insurgents swinging to
Roosevelt.
Senator William E. Borah all eady
has declared he would refuse to
support Hoover on the Republican
platform adopted here two weeks
ago. Whether he will go further
and support Roosevelt was one of
the vital questions.
Support by Borah probably would
bring thousands of dissenting Re-
publicans into the Democratic fold,
it was felt.
However, Borah never has-not
even in the Roosevelt split of 1912
deserted his party.
Unworried Over Tammany
Roosevelt leaders looked to the
support of George w. Norris (Neb)
as favorable omen. Morris sways
thousands of votes in Nebraska,
Wisconsin and even Iowa, all three
of which invariably go Republican
in presidential elections.
Obvious signs of hostility on the
part of Tammany, while annoying
to Roosevelt leaders, were not en-
tirely without favorable aspects.

to many citizens. Such votes as
Tammany may pull away from

"I did not support Hoover be-
fore, and the reasons I gave then
for refusing to support him have
been vindicated by his official ac-
ton since," Norris said.
"I expect to support Roosevelt.
The fundamental principle involved
in the coming presidential campaign
is the contest between organized
monopoly on the one hand, and the
common people on the other.
I'm my opinion millions of pro-
gressive- minded citizens all over the

Special Dispatch to The Star
MI NEAPOLIS, January 6.-Little
concrete evidence of improvement In
underlying conditions is visible today,
according to John r. Ridgway, preSi-
dent of Investors Syndicate, in his an
nual message.
The really hopeful signs, according
to Mr. Ridgway, are the tendency OF
business to face facts and adjust itself
to them, while the remarkable develop
ment of thrift and careful personal
management on the part of the indi-
vidual citizen establishes sound basis
for ultimate improvement.
During any boom, people live be-
yond their means" said Mr.. Ridgway,
which is reflected in falling savings
totals. In the ensuing depression debts
are first paid off, then savings begin to
accumulate. Reserve buying power
builds up while people still lack the
confidence to go out and buy.
To-day the individual seeks safety
for his funds with a modest interest re-
turn, and stretches his income to the
limit through careful buying, instead
Of as formerly, seeking large specula-
tive profits for the purpose of reckless
overSpendirg
Business itself is generally on a
rockbottom inventory basis. Hand-to-
mouth buying has been carried to the
extreme. Business houses have shrewd~
ly cut expenses and trimmed sails;

SURVEY SHOWS STOCKS
HELD IN HIGH FAVOR

A recent survey of the safety records
Of trust companies and national banks
has revealed the fact that never in the

beneficiary suffered loss of trusteed
property, according to Bernard P.
Nimro e. Co., inestment dealers, in the

An investigation by this firm of the
investment policies followed by out
standing modern millionaires indicates
that many were not disconnected by
periodic depressions, but that they be-
lieved in wide diversif1cation and long
term holding of stocks.
The estate of Thomas Fortune Ryan
was little more than S120,00O,000, of
which about $115,000 900 was in stocks

CHINESE COTTON
PURCHASES LARGE
Heavy Buying of Cotton in
u. S. Reported During
Last Year.

Despite its internal troubles China
was one of the brightest spots on the
United States foreign trade map dur
ing the past year, the Commerce De-
partment announced today.
Notwithstanding the many revolutions
and its conflict with Japan in Man.
churia, China took more United States
raw cotton during 1881 than during
any year in the history of Chinese
American trade, commercial attache
Julean Arnold at Shanghai, today ad-
vised the department.
Records available at the department
for the year, exclusive of December,
show that the Strife-torn republic pur-
chased $4,000 cotton bales, an increase
Of l35 per cent over 1880, when only
100000 bales were shipped to Shanghai
and other Chinese ports.
1t Is believed here that little of this
raw material was used for munition
purposes, but the greater part of the
large shipment formed part of Chinas
great textile expansion plan.
Exclusive of December, the United
States export trade with the Far East
republic, according to figures made pub
lie today by the department, amount
ed to $84, 4,l75, 1876 during 1881, as COM
pared with $82, 1851 ,l06 for the first II
months OF 1890 During November
this country's exports to China amount
ed to Sl4, ,745, 400, an increase of Sc, 1885,
600 for the same month in 1880.
The department records show that
the November, 1881, exports we're 81
2l2,409 more than the total United
States trade with that country during
the whole year of 1900.
During the same period China in
cod hor RI Init
from $l0,924,000 in 1900, to S63,264,-
861 in 1881.
Arnold cabled today that the outlook
continues promising for the present
year.
He reported Shanghai, at the close of
the year, presents but little evidence of
business depression. Since recession of
flood waters, much improvement in
general trade is also evident in the
mid-YangtZe Valley region
The commercial attache said the
Manchurian trading situation is un-
changed, and trading conditions in
South China was described as quiet.
Several large orders for American cot
ton yarn were placed in this section,
replacing yarn formerly supplied
through Japanese sources.
Arnold said there was also a brisk
demand for potatoes and onions from
the Pacific Coast and many inquiries
for imitation leather, toys and kitchen
utensils.

AVIATION
INDUSTRY IS MADE
Corporation Head Urges Con-
tinued Support by the
Government.
BY FRANK H. MCCONNELL,

Associated Press FINANCIAL writer.
NEW YORK, January 6.-An appeal
for continued government support of
the American aviation industry was
ma6x here by Thomas A. Morgan, presi-
dent Of the Curtiss- Wright Corporation.
Mr.. Morgan said that the industry
had made large forward strides in 1881,
registering an increase in passenger
transportation in the first nine months,
while rail and steamship travel had de-
creased. Nevertheless, he said, the in
dustry continues dependent on liberal
Government support for its future
growth.
Aviation in 1881 has made brave
showing in the face of heavy Odds" ne
said. "The industry entered the year
with sales trimmed to meet conditions
of overeXpansion and overproduction,
and by hard work has succeeded in
making and holding certain advances.
Statistics for the first nine months liz
dicate an increase in air passenger
transportation Of 6.5 per cent, while
during the same period transatlantic
steamships showed a loss of 43 per cent
in Westbound traffic and l8 per cent in
eastbound. Railroad passenger JuSin ,Gs
declined l1.3 per cent. Airmail gained
1872 per cent and air express 2l2 per
cent.
Aside from the efforts of the indus
try, two causes are responsible for these
results-intelligent government aid and
an increasing knowledge and confidence
on the part of the public as to the eco
nomiC benefits Of flying In spite OF
these encouraging gains the time has
not yet arrived when the industry can
survive without liberal Government sup
port.
The proposed budget submitted TO
Congress recommends cut Of 20 per
cent in Air Corps appropriations and
reductions Of "a per cent for the pro-
cmement of new airplaneS and motors,
as compared with an per cent reduc-
lion in the entire War Department. Also
a cut of Is per cent in the Bureau of
Aeronautics and 46 per cent reduction
in the procurement of naval planes and
engines, as compared with a 5 per cent
reduction for the entire Navy Depart
ment. The United States ranks fourth
in the number of its fighting planes,
being surpassed by France, Great Britain
and Italy
In view of our national wealth and
! our comparative ranking with other
nations, such policy at this time would
appear Short-sightcd and even danger
Gus. The present Congress S faced with
many trying problems, and not the least
of them is the establishment of an in
telligent and sympathetic policy for the
| further fostering of aviation.
Such assistance on the part of the
Government is amply justified as an aid
TO. the prosperity of the country and is
necessary adjunct to our national de-
| tense" ...,.-. .......

BONDS IN ADVANCE
ON ACTIVE DEMAND
Foreign Dollar List Is Leader
of Vigorous Gain in
Market.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.
tch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The star
NEW YORK, January 6.-Led by
foreign dollar descriptions, the bond
market today staged its most vigorous
rally In some time. Advances of 5 to
points we're spread through the for
eign list and in domestic descriptions
the gains ranged from 2 to 4 points
Trading was moderately heavy.
The market opened higher, accom-
panying a sharp recovery on the stock
market Both markets reflected IA
vorably the quick action on President
Hoover'S Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration and the more favorable aspect
of foreign affairs. The fact that the
negotiations between France and Eng
land on the German situation are now
proceeding smoothly and the concerted
action by England, France and the
United States in the Manchurian crisis
were factors that improved sentiment.
The early sharp advances in the Ger
man group were based primarily on a
rumor, later proved without official
foundation, that England and France
had reached an agreement on the Ger
man private debt status But even
when this was denied, the markets mo-
mentum was such that the gains were
extended. German 5I2s and Dawes
reparations rs rose more than points
to prices ID and % points, respectively,
above their bear market lows. German
municipals such as Berlin IS, made
substantial gains. Berlin City cleo
trio 6I2s were more than points high
er. German Central Bank issues were
up to 3 points. German industrialS
and utilities followed. Rhineland West
phalia Electric bonds were bid up on
the declaration of $106 dividend on
the company's American shares.
Other foreign bonds shared in the
Rumanian rs gained
more than 2 points on top of the 512-
point gain of Tuesday. Vienna IS,
Rome 61as Kreuger g. Toll SIS B, Bel
glan IS and the obligations of Austria,
Italy. Greece and the smaller European
rose to points. Brit
iSh 512s reflected the f1rmness of Ster-
ling quotations with rise of more
than a point. japanese governments
gained about point Australians we're
higher, notably Queensland rs, which
gained points.
Under the influence of a buoyant
market for stocks, bonds were higher
throughout the list at the opening
japanese government 61as advanced
a point and German government de-
scriptionS also were about a point
higher. German Bank issues improved.
French government 712s had small
gain
In the domestic list, railroad obliga-
tions were steady to fractionally higher
with few actual changes. Southern Rail
way SIS gained about p point. New
York Central 6S were firm. Industrials
and utilities were unchanged. United
States government bonds were mar
roWly higher,
