 New York. Jan. 9.-(UP).-The stock market gave a strong dem- onstration so far as prices were concerned today-gains ranging to more than 8 ppints-but traders continued wary and dealings were dull.
 Late profit taking failed to dent the market to any considerable ex- tent.
 Tohaccos shares took over the market leadership, their strength being based on overnight an- nouncement of increases in prices for popular brands of cigarettes. It was the first price increase in al- most a year and the tobacco shares responded with gains ranging from to more than points.
 This strength in the tobacco is- sues led to a stronger tone through the entire list, gains of fractions to 3 points being recorded generally with some special issues squirting sharply. Among these latter was Hat Corporation preferred which leaped to equal its 1933-34 high of 30, an increase of 8k points, on a favorable earnings report.
 Outside of the tobacco announce ment there was little to effect the market save the possibility of two special presidential messages to congress tomorrow, which added to the lack of enthusiasm for mak- ing commitments to-day. The dol- lar was about steady in foreign ex- change trading while the Recon struction Finance Corporation gold price remained unchanged Cor poration bonds were higher while U. s. government and German is- sues were easeir. Wheat gained fraction. Ny while cotton held about steady.
 In the industrial list on the stock market, the communications is- sues featured along with tobacco shares. American Telephone gained more than points to above 112 while Postal Telegraph preferred and Western Union both showed advances of more than point. U. s. Steel gained fractionally to around AZ.
 Among the tobacco shares Tobacco B.. gained about 3 points each; Lorillard crossed 17 for i more than point gain; Reynolds B.. made similar gain to above A while Liggett and Myers E crossed 80 for more than 4 points gain.
 Recently popular motor shares again were fairly attractive but late profit taking erased most o1 their earlier fractional gains

COmposed Entirely of Russians, Who Were Officers in the Army of Czar Nicholas Before Revolution
By JOHN R. BEAL IUnitcd Press Stan CorrcspOndenD

A AInltcu fFesso StuH NOTFcspOhUC"J
 New York, Jan 9--(UP)-Amer- ica's Foreign Legion-most people don't know there is one-looked Forward today to celebrating it's fifth anniversary. The Legion is the second combat train of the 244th Field Artillery, New York National Guard, composed of Rus sians who were officers in the army of Czar Nicholas II before the bol- sllevik revolution = made them exiles.
 They are 8 weather beatGp. scar red group whose varying fortunes took them to far corners of the world before they met in New York
 It was Top Sergeant Alexis A. Stoopenkoff who got the group to gether five years ago this February. Once captain in the personal guard of the Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaievitch. Stoopenkoff driftcd to the United States and served as bakers helper, as janitor at Cooper Union, as foreman in a Brooklyn silk plant and finally as taxi driver.
 Stoopenkoff advertised for veter- ans in the White Russian Press and got together nucleus that formed the second combat train. Weekly they drill in the dark stone ArmorY at 14th street.
 The present membership includes two sons of veterans, who were born ill this country, and never saw the steppes of the ancestral home land. They are Alexander Sala- .I i,, Vnrl, Nicholas Cooke Git used to be Kukulcvsky), born in Chicago and now a student at Pratt Institute.
 The battery room has a huge cloth print on one wall depicting part of the Kremlin in Moscow. In an alcove is picture of CZar Nicholas II, and on another wall are the silver aguillettes and epau- Iettes of the Grand Duke Alcxan- der.
 There is adventure in the case histories of the squad.
 Stoopenkoff came out of the war with broken chin, l , teeth miss ing, bullet wounds in both arms and leg, and seven decorations. lie served two months in the red army after the revolution before the chance came to desert to Cen eral Wraugel's white guardists. He now is linotype operator on a Russian newspaper.
 Nicholas Alexander Bogoluboff, who now pursues the relatively un- exciting profession of public ac- couatant, went from Russia's naval academy into the Baltic sea fleet, serving on the destroyer Gnevny.
 Vladimir Corcashvilli, born in imperial St Petersburg. served in the 42nd field artillery. After the revolution he joined the Georgian national army and fought the Turks and the red army until 1919, then joined General Wrangel. He works in the research laboratory.
 Alexis Goudin6m entered the war as a private, served in Siberia in the famed Drosdovsky regiment and wore captains insigna when the revolution broke. He came here in 1926 with a Russian choir. Now he works as a printer.
 What would you do if you were assigned to guard the Soviet am bassador ?" Stoopenkoff was asked. He replied:
 We would obey orders. We would guard him with our lives. Even if we were ordered to salute a monkey we would obey orders.

CHANCELLOR OF
 AUSTRIA FIGHTS
 ALL HOME NAZE
Germany Has Failed, He Declares and Austria Will
 Drive Them Out
By ROBERT IT. BEST United Press Stan COrrcSpOndcnt)

Vienna, Jan. 9-GUP)-C Chan cellor Engelbert Dollfuss declared formal war on Austrian Nazis to- day.
 Members of volunteer storm troop organizations were sent to patrol with the gendarmerie under orders to suppress all NaZi activi- ties.
 A gov rnment communique, which all newspapers, were ordered to publish in full, said:
 "The ,vernment has been len tent because it hoped the Nazis would see the error of their ways and that understanding would re- place insanity. Leniency has failed. Hence in future force will be used mercilessly to suppress terrorism" /"
 Dollfuss' action was an answer to New Year activities of the Nazis, including 140 bombings. It marks the end of long. intermittent associations between Dollfuss and Austrian Nazis leaders and Dollfuss and a semi-official spokesman for Chancellor Adolf Hitler of Ger many, supreme Nazi leader.
 Prince Starhenberg, leader of the Fascist Heimwehr, called into con- sultation today provincial leaders, to plan campaign that would ef- feet the governments new anti Nazi policy.
 Major Emil Fey, vice chancellor, instructed the national commander of the Gendarmerie to tell local commanders that any gendarme official who failed within AS hours to arrest the perpetrators of any Nazi bombing outrage would be dismissed without notice.
 The reason for reinforcing the gendarmerie with members of storm troop organizations was that government leaders believe many of the Gendarmes to be NaZi sym pathizers. Any police who are dis missed for not opposing Nazi &C., tivities will be replaced by storm troopers.
 It was reported in political circles that Dollfuss' new policy was made possible by assurances from Premier Benito Mussolini of his support against any effort by German NaZis to cause him em- barrassment.
 . Amsterdam, Holland, Jan. 9-U P)-The government today order- ed all provincial and municipal authorities to dismiss Dutch Nazis in their employ. Queen Wilhelmina was believed to have ordered the suppression of NaZiism before she left for Switzerland

FREEZE QUIT FOR
 TAMMANY HALL
 HAS BEEN BEGUN
Strategy Being Used to Dust Chieftain==McC COOey
 Also May GO

Washington, Jan 9.-UP)- UP)-President Roosevelt's poli- tical advisors are completing stra- tegy for a determined battle by which they expect to freeze out" |Tammany Hall, depose Leader John r. Curry and crush forever the power of the Hall in New York city.
 Failure of Joseph Mckee, inde- pendent democrat who was thrust into the recent mayoralty election by the administration, to defeat the fusion republican, Fiorello La Guar dia, has convinced administration politicians that Tammany must be crushed before the gubernatorial and congressional elections next fall.
 As the first move, 1t is said, Postmaster General Farley, plans to place an administration man in charge of federal and state patron age in New York city. This man will be nti-Tammanyite but fig ure well known to Tammany dis trict leaders and one calculated to win their support in time.
 Secondly, the plan calls for cre- ation of new democratic organiZa- tions in the boroughs of Queens. Richmond and Brooklyn. These Organizations, together with the ex- isting one in the Bronx, will gradu- ally squeeze Tammany out of its Manhattan stronghold and break Curry's grip there, the strategists hope.
 New York, Jan 9.-UP)-For- mer State Senator William Lathrop Love to-day called on Brooklyn's democratic leader, John H. Me- Cooey, to read "the handwriting on the wall before it is too late," and demanded, by inference, that he resign.
 "Tammany may not have crossed the bridge, but 1t came over in the subway Love said, "and we of the democratic party of this great bor- ough demand a virile leadership which is not simply the tail of Tammany's kite"
