Early business didn't amount to
much, but the later demand for
the autos helped to swell volume.
Traders had lavish display OF
favorable business comments to

little effect on market strategy.

Taft Attempting 10 Halt
Chain Letters Askinq
Campaign Donations
BY the Associated Press

Senator Taft, Republican. OF
Ohio, added something new to
the political pattern today by try
ing to halt campaign contribu-
tionS.
The full story of a new sort
of Embarrassing drive came to light
with Senator Taft's assertion that
he is trying to discourage Ma
tion-wide chain letter campaign.
Senator Taft told reporters in
Cincinnati yesterday that he and
his aides had nothing to do with
and are trying to stop-chain
letters asking recipients (A) To
donate 81 to the Ohioan's re-
election expenses and (B) To send
the letter on to 10 other persons.
Friends of Senator Taft here
said the idea was Matched by we'll
wishers who have come to regard
the Ohio Senator as "Mr. Repub-
lican" and who want to be sure
he has funds for an all-out cam
paign.
Retaliation for Labor Drive.
Senator Taft himself has
charged that organized labor plans
to spend millions to defeat him
in the Ohio race next year. Labor
is after his scalp largely because
he sponsored the Taft Hartley
Act passed by the Republican Soth
Congress and had a big hand In
preventing its repeal in the last
session.
The AFL and the CIO have
asked members to donate 81 each.
with indications that a hefty
chunk of this cash would be used
in Ohio.
Some businessmen have retail
ated by starting interstate fund
raising drives for Senator Taft.
Former Senator Hawkes., New
Jersey Republican who once head
ed the National Association OF
Manufacturers, is said to have
been active in this cause.
AS a result. contributions are
reported to have been coming in
to Taft headquarters from all
over the country.
Industrialist Sends $500.
Senator Taft's friends here re-
ported that, as an example, Mis-
souri, industrialist sent along a
check for 5000. noting that 200
unionized employees of his had
been asked to contribute 81 each
to fund that would be used-in
part at least-against Senator
Taft.
A Chicago businessman, visit
ing Washington. told a reporter
he had sent along a check for $40.
He said nobody asked him to.
adding that he just wanted to see
Senator Taft reelected.
This fund raising is said to
have made something Of dent in
Republican efforts to collect cash
for general campaign use in some
Of the States. Most Of his col
leagues. however, don't blame
Senator Taft.
The Ohio Senator has always
financed his campaigns through
Ohio contributions and appar-
emily would like to continue to do
that.
He also is seemingly we'll aware
Of the danger of being tagged as
a money" candidate. preferring
the role of the financial under
dog being attacked by well-heeled
labor unions.
