man Farley election midnight:
i have an idea that the people
who SO viciously assailed the Presi-
dent during the campaign, who
called him a Communist and a
would-be dictator, an enemy OF bus
mess, are now rather ashamed OF
the bitterness they brought into the
campaign.
For myself, hope these attacks
VIII soon be forgotten. I am sure
that the President entertains nc
bitterness, even to those who in the
fury of the struggle SO grossly as
sailed him.
I know that all will join me in

The industrial and business up
trend continued, interrupted by
the election.
On Wednesday morning, when the
New York Stock Exchange opened
there was some hesitancy noticeable
among traders on the floor, but
it lasted for only minute or two
The buying quickly started and the
market closed steadily.
A break came Friday, precipitated
by the wage increases in the steel
industry.
Thousands of steel workers re-
ceived notices of pay increases.
Among the companies giving the
increases, which averaged around
10 per cent, were the Carnegie Illi-
onis Company, the largest subsid-
larry of the United States Steel Cor
poration, and the Bethlehem Steel
Company The entire steel indus
try, it was expected in financial
circles, will pay the increased scale
within another week.
Labor union officials, engaged in
organizing steel workers, said the
increase was given in an effort to
offset their campaign and declared
the steel workers would not be sat-
isfied with the increase.
They also said the increase was
agreed upon week ago, but was
held up in the hope of Republi-
can victory in the election.
The week also brought many spec
ial dividends from corporations, at
tributable to the New Deals 1896

tributed profits of corporations. The
bill becomes effective January
There has Leen much talk of revis-
ion of the measure in the coming

Likewise, such talk of revision
extends to the Social Security Act

of Claims Action.

Halsted L. Ritter of Miami, ousted
Federal judge. attacked In the Court
of Claims today the constitutionality
of his conviction by the Senate on
House impeachment charges.
In an unprecedented action. Ritter
filed claim for his salary since April
l, contending the Senate's verdict was
illegal, arbitrary. unjust, unconstitu-
tional and void"
He filed a 66-page petition, con-
tending he was acquitted Of six spe-
cific charges brought by impeach-
ment articles, and that on a seventh,
an ominous charge, he was convicted.
He insisted no specific charge was
made by the final article, which ac-
cused him Of such conduct as ito
bring his court into scandal and dis
repute."
The impeachment charges were
founded on Ritter's handling of a
receivership case involving fees to a
former law partner.
Shortly after Ritter's petition was
hled, the Senate Judiciary Committee
approved the nomination Of John w.
Holland as Judge for the southern
district of Florida, to succeed Ritter.
Through his attorney. Carl T. Hoff-
man of Miami, Ritter said he had not
consented to REIMBURSEMENT of his
offices in the Federal Building, Miami,
despite demands Of Postmaster William
c. Hill that he vacate the judges
chambers.
Hoffman said, however, Ritter would
discontinue, under protest" use Of
the offices temporarily. He said Hill
had been notified in q letter that
Ritter's consent to move out, pending
determination of the suit, did not con-
stitute an admission that Ritter had
relinquished his claim on the judge
ship.
The court set no date for hearing
on the petition. Under rules Of pro-
cedure, copies will be served on At
torney General Cummings, who has
