NEW YORK. Dec. 22.—-The post
election boom in stock prices, which
today enters upon its eighth consc-
cutlve week. has added billions to
the quoted value of securities and
has brought slzcable fortunes to
partners in New York Stock ex—
change houses. many of which were
barely meeting expenses during the
summer months.

Total shares since election day.
have been approximately 75,000,000
shares with nineteen 1.000.000 share
days within that period. an unprece-
dented record of heavy trading. The
average of loading industrial stocks
has been elevated to the highest lov-
el since the peak of the post-war
boom in 1919. while the general rail-
road average is at the highest figure
in seven years.

Fifteen active issues alone have
added nearly $400,000,000 to their
market value, and there are nearly
900 issues listed on the Exchange,
nearly half of which are traded in
each day. The extent of the rise
may be visualized from the following
table which gives the mime of MI
active stocks, the extreme gains from 1
their low point on the day before
election, and the monetary apprccia-
tion in quoted value on outstanding
capital stock:

ginning the fight not in- the middle of
his term when most of the ammuni-
tion is usually spent. but at the one
precedented time when he has four
full years to serve and his own in-
auguration is still more than two
months away.

The President made no public
statement when the Ronubllcan lead-
ers in the Senate and House read Olin,

gents. In presenting to the Senate.
however. last week the humus of
postmaster: rccomcnded by the omi-
La Folloitp Republicanism of “’15-
consin. Mr. Coolidge lined himself up
definitely with the regulars in Win-
consin and fired the first sun of the
1926 Congressional fight when Sens.-
for Loni-00!. staunch admlnlslrstion
supporter. will be up for renomina-
tlon.

Undoubtedly the La. Follctte forces
will enter a candidate in the Repub-
lican primaries to defoangnx-oot and
The latter has for severcl months
known that he had a fight aimed of
him. The “’hlte House was urged
repeatedly before the lost nullonal
convention to make war on the La
Follelic group. but it was deemed
by the “‘blfe House strait-gist to be
unwise to precipitate a controversy
until after Mr. Coolidge had been
nominated. The notion of the Wis.
cousin delegation of the convention
followed as it was by tho La b‘ollcito
candidacy for the Presidency left the
administration no nitcmniivc, how~
ever, and from that time forward the
Republican national committee began
Io realize that it must build up a new
organization who had been making
the fight your after year against La
Follcuism with heavy odds.

Usually the La Folloite people
have been hclpcd in the Republican
primaries by Democratic voice. The
Lcnroot forces know now that con-
somtivc Democrats can be drawn to
a Republican tlckct whcn a radical is
in, the race and the-re is no doubt
that the 1.43th campaign will need
Dcmocrailc support.

The use of patronage may or may
not be of value so for as actually
got‘ng votes. But it has .1 grin!
deal to do with the spirit of an or,
sanitation. if. ’for instance. the
workers understand that tiny can
hope for no rewards at “‘suhingion
when they support for Congress
men who are not recognized by their
own‘party organization and who. of
course. can expect nothing from the
Democrats if the latter come into
power. the whole problt‘m of politi-
cal organization in local precincts is
likrly to be made very difficult. ‘

The theory back of political ap-
pointments is that deserving workers
get rewards. The opposition usual-
ly attacks this theory as the "spoils"
system. That political office: are
traded for support is not a demon—
strable proposition as a. rule. but
the 1A Follelte people will not hesi—
tate to develop a controversy over it
in the hope that sympathy will come
to than as they feel themselves be»
lag punished for trying to make the
Republican party a “progressive" in—
strumeniullty. Already there are
signs that oven friends of the ad.
ministration in some Western
States doubtthc wisdom of sending
Eastern money to “'csiern primaries
and warnings are given that the sur-
plus preserved by the. Republican
national campaign committee after
the last election should not be used
for that purpose. The Lincoln (No-
braskn) State Journal which sup~
ported.Coolidgo says that a "West-
ornér could think of no more certain
way than this to insure the nomina-
tion of these (insurgent) Senators."
and that “if Pennsylvania and New
York~sre to furnish money io con—
trol Western primaries. they will
need to be veryaecrctlve about it."
Senator Capper's own paper. the
Tepeks. (Kansas) Capital adds that
the national committee has "more
Western than Eastern men on it and
will hardly fallfor such a. political
game—if it should. new Western men
would undoubtedly be elected to rep~
resent the West."

Eastern conservatives have felt
that in order to retain a. Congress
amenable to the Coolidge program
some strenuous efforts should be
rustic and 1 course of action adopted
oven st this early date to keep the
Republican party clear of, radicals.
The move to use patronage is in
line with that program.
