WALL STREET New York, Novem-
Der l5.-Firm in the morning, heavy IN
the early afternoon and steadying IN
the last hour, the stock market today
left of with unimpoItant price changes
The real feature Of the trading was
the resistance shown to unfavorable
news developments The market had
nothing to stimulate it and much 10
depresS it, but stocks were not in sup
ply except in one or two instances, ex-
plainable by conditions peculiar to the
issues affected.
Leaders in Recovery. sa,.
Just before the close Of Chesapeake
& Ohio declared the regular dividend
on its common stock. The late recov%
cry was led by American Telephone,
Continental Can, Union Pacific and
United Aircraft. FS
Commodities went through much the
same cycle as stocks. Wheat was
higher in the early trading. but lost
the gains before the end. Coffee was
strong and sugar was weak. Bank
stocks were firm.
The market opened irregular and
dragged along for an hour or so with
out important change. The trend II
it may be called that, was upward, but
fluctuations were narrow and volume
small throughout the morning The
hesitant tone was accounted for partly
by the uncertainty as to what would
happen to the applications Of Americas
foreign creditors for a further postpone
ment of payments. Another influence
was the large number Of important diYi-l
dend meetings impending
Easily the most important Of these
meetings was that of American Tele-
phone g. Telegraph tomorrow and,
Judging from the action of the stock
on the tape traders were Of the opin-
ion the regular rate would be declared.
Telephone was the strongest OF the
active stocks all through the early
trading, up some 2 points from the pre-
ceding close and around the best Of this
recovery. The weak spots were the
preferred issues of some Of the Elec-
tric Bond & Share group, particularly
Electric Power g. Light and American
Power g. Light preferreds. s
Oil stocks continued to give a good
account OF themselves. Standard OH
of New Jersey made up the dividend
which came OF the price today. Stand
ard Oil of New York advanced gasoline
prices in its territory, while on the
other hand, demand for motor fuel for,
the next six months was estimated at
1O.l per cent under that. or this same
period year ago. this forecast being
made by its committee to the Federal
Oil Conservation Board.
Operations for the rise went ON not
aggreSsively but as IL sponsors for the
stocks concerned were testing out the.
market in United Aircraft, in Freeport
Texas and in Chrysler. Fractional gains
were registered by United States Steel
common, Allied Chemical, American
Can, Atchison and Union Pacific.
Earnings statements were not very
inspiring. General Asphalt reported q,
net loss for the IL months ended Sep
tember 80 Of $3.50 ,462, against a net
profit Of 1922, GIG in the previous year.
Columbia Gas g. Electric showed net
for the year ended September 80 Of
S16,012.08 compared with $2s, ,5eI ,672

Low Prices Spur
Demand for Cotton
Goods Over Nation
nv the Associated press.

NEW YORK, November 15.-
Mail order and chain store organ
izations are reported to be doing
a large business in cotton goods,
says the New York Cotton Ex-
change Service, due to the low
prices at which many staple gar
ments are being offered. The
service says that mill activity
continues relatively high and
promises to be maintained for q
few weeks at least.

Some Feeds Higher.

Prices of wheat mill feeds at Eastern
and Central Western markets averaged
higher, influenced not only by re-
coveries in wheat prices, but also by
some increase in demand. Cottonseed
meal prices were unchanged to higher.
Linseed meal lost ground, with con-
tinued slow demand. Soybean meal,
hominy feed, alfalfa meal and tankage
were unchanged.
Timothy and clover hay markets re-
manned quiet and unchanged, with light
offerings in continued slow demand.
Offerings were light at New York City,
but apparently about equal to current
market requirements.
Domestic grain markets strengthened
during the second week OF November
under the influence of lighter market
ings and some increase in demand.
Firmness in security and cotton mar
kets, reduced Canadian marketingS, i'm
provement in domestic demand for cash
grains, continued dryness in Western
areas of the Winter wheat belt and
slightly firmer foreign markets were
strengthening influences. Corn, oats
and barley advanced on lighter offer
ings, together with more active in
quiry, particularly for mating barley.
Rye was firmer with wheat, but had In
dependent strength as result of strong
cash demand for the light marketings.
Flax was higher with wheat and feed
grains, but trading was light and mill
ing demand was restricted BY the dull
market for nnseed oil.

consolidation bill to be passed, excuSing his action by saying that he had been informed that Con- gress would adjourn before he could return. In a speech in Fair banks, Judge Wickersham express ed his approval of the bill by read ing only a part of it. He omitted that part providing that the Inte- rlor Department was given power to charge tolls on Alaskan roads. If any lawyer had been guilty of such an act as emitting to present to a court the full substance of a docu- ment it would have resulted in dis barment on the grounds of an at tempt to deceive the court. What do you think of this for political morality?
 This toll provision affects the railroad rates, for it will be impos- sible, if tolls are charged, to se- cure 9 reduction in railroad rates because it will be asserted that the question is involved in the general one of road and railroad rates. The policy seems to be to make the roads pay or drive the people off the roads.
 Judge Wickersham said that he did not oppose this transfer of the roads to the Interior Department because he had had trouble with engineers of the Alaska Road Com mission and saw an opportunity to take his revenge on them. He was compelled to go beyond the grave to take revenge upon Colonel Rich ardson. This has cost Alaska many dollars.
 Another important bill which Judge Wickersham neglected by his absence from Washington was the relief bill which included S1,- 100000 or more appropriated for Alaska He excused this neglect by saying that it was a Democratic

 was employed to draw this bill. l may state parenthetically that if that bill had passed it would have given these interests rig hts in per- petuity, with no hope of ever reduc- ing the number of traps, because to attempt to do so would have been met in the courts by legal pro- ceedings charging confiscation.
 Here is MT. Paul's statement:
 Now I come to the specific charges made against me, that is, that I am in the pay of the can nerleS In the first place there isn't a person here but will admit that a lawyer having general practice has the right to accept fees from any source he can get them
 Here, let me state" said MT. Dimond that no honorable law yer would take his fees from any source he can"
 My work a a private attorney and my work as a !egislator are different things. I was called to Seattle. Washington. by Judge Wickersham-oh these friends of Judge Wickersham don't mention his name, always mine. he can take his fees where he finds then-thev take care they don't mention Wick erShan'S name because he has got thelr number. I was called to Seattle, Wn., to consider the question of a certain bill that cer- tain cannery interests wished to in troduce in Congress; among the cannerv interests were the Nakat, Sunny Point and Deep Sea, rep resented by MT. Frelee CD. MT Skinner and MT. Bushmann. It seems that these men had been in conference with cannery men. Jas. Wlckersham and Bob Heckman.
 When l came down there I was asked how much pay I anticipated: l was sure that Judge Wickersham or myself would have to 20 back to Washington; I had a consulta- tlon with Bob and he told me that l ought to get at least s5,OOO for It; l thanked him very much for the information and I made it S6.- 900. I therefore think that have answered the question propounded by the Democratic committee.
 Now when I went back to Washington to find out whether or not such a bill could pass Con- greSs, one of the first things I did was to go to Dan Sutherland's of lice. He had seen the bill and we entered into a discussion; Dan Su- 'therland at that time said, T am utterly opposed to that kind of bill; l don't want any bill intro duced in Congress that is going to legallze traps or give preferments," he answered my question. I then went to other members of Con- gresS and asked them what was the chance of getting the passage of the bill leasing trap sites from year to year, and they told me that they did not feel that bill could be gotten thru Congress over the opposition of Dan Sutherland. So 1t was about a week or 10 days later I got a long distance call from Seattle, Wn.; Judge Wicker

by the Territorial Legislature. If ] am elected I shall try to have the Game Commission abolished and the entire control placed in the hands of the Legislature.
 T am opposed to the high rates on the Alaska Railroad. I agree with the thought of the late Presi- dent Wilson that the road was con- structed for the development of the country and not intended to be- come a paying institution at once When the question of rates came up in Washington Judge Wicker sham did not offer word of op- position, despite the fact that Col Otto F. Ohlson, general manager of the railroad, did. Colonel Ohl- son was brushed aside by Senator HoWell's committee. Senator How ell appears to control the Secretary of the Interior.
 "As result of the increased rates the railroad has lost earnings In 1929 they were $1,165,91O; in 1880, $1,990,000. The high rates came into effect in 1880, and the earnings fell to $1,053,OOO. The payroll in 1880 was $1,977,OOO: in 1881 it fell to $1 ,42O,OO0, which rep- represented savings secured by the discharge of men, and at a time when the administration was an nouncing that all men on the pub lie payroll be retained as a relief measure for the depression. And Judge Wickersham did not protest. when the recent policy of reduction Ill pay of federal employees was belng secured, an exception for employees on the Panama canal respecting leave of absence, where by the rule of taking only Is days annual leave of absence which ap- plies to employees of the Alaska Railroad was not applied to the Canal employees. Neither were the employees of the Alaska Rail- road saved from the 81-3 per cent slash in wages for men earning less than $1,O00 annually. Yet Judge Wickersham did not protest or seek to protect them.
 Again, when three important bills affecting Alaska were before Congress Judge Wickersham left Washington and allowed the road

Snam was at one end and taking
 at the rate of about $50 per minute,
 and over the telephone he demand ed that 1 see MT. Sutherland and ask him to introduce the bill. From my end I said "WickerSham, I shall do no such thing as that be- ! cause Dan is opposed to the bill; he will testify that I never used my friendship to benefit myself per- Sonally," and I told Judge Wicker sham I would have nothing to do
 with the bill, and I came home and have done nothing since.
 Until MT. Paul made this speech we did not know the entire discred- ltable story. I had heard rumors about it, but I really did not be- lleve them, because I gave both MT. Paul and Judge Wickersham credit for a higher degree of intelligence than shown in their action in this matter. But MT. Paul'S spec h makes it all plain. Judge Wicker sham was originally employed by these great canning corporations, not as a lawyer, but as a lobbyist. He didn't sell his legal services: he sold his political influence. Judge Wickersham had held office in Alaska for many, many years. He had been United States district judgo and he had been Delegate. He had many followers in Alaska. There were many people in Alaska who were so friendly toward him that they would be inclined to be- NeVe whatever he did was right. In ether words, he had great and DOW erful political influence, and I can assure you that MT. Paul also. at that time, had outstanding political Influence. MT. Paul is the only man in Alaska who could then pro- bably deliver as many as 1000 votes for any candidate for political of flee. It is not necessary to go into the details of this, and I have not the time anyhow to discuss it ade- quately The situation was not healthy one, but it existed and had existed for some years. So when Judge Wickersham got this job from the canneries to secure the enactment of the fish trap bill, he immediately thought of MT. Paul and realized that he would be obliged to call upon MT. Paul for help, because MT. Paul and MT. Sutherland were intimate political friends.
 Now what did Judge Wicker sham gets out of this? There were various reports at that time: that Judge Wickersham received $15,- 900; that he received $10,000, and that he received 5000. In a speech made in Fairbanks more than two years ago he denied hav- ing received $15,OOO, and he denied having received $1OOOO, and he de- nied having received 5000, but he never denied having received $8,00O. And I think we can safely assume that he actually did receive s9,OOO.
 ''Now let us put aside all these matters and turn to matters of po- litical principles.
 Another intimate matter is con- trol of fur and game I am op- posed to the entire Alaska Game Commission and think it pitiable and foolish. These matters should be controlled and administered
