SUGARS LEAD IN . GROUP ACM OF STOCK MARKET \ Profit-Taking Sales Readily Absorbed by General List. DAVISON MOVES AHEAD Belief of Speculative Community Is That Good Business Is Ahead. The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—Developments over the week-end did nothing to change the belief of the speculative community that the present upswing ht the market was discounting a period of ample business activity through the winter and into the spring and with no adverse foreign news to hamper them, stocks today continued the bullish demonstration in progress at last week s close. Sugars .were the most buoyant group under it he lead of Cuba Cane preferred, while Blavison Chemical continued its re®?ivery, selling at 69%, up more than ten points from its recent low. First Hour Considerable irregularity developed toward the end of the first hour when heavy profit-taking came into stocks prominent on last week’s advance. But a few groups continued to move ahead while this selling was being absorbed. Sugars were especially strong, many traders buying stocks of the raw producing companies on the theory that good prices wil lbe obtained neitt year. Consumption Is Winning at a record rate and 1924 Cuhau production may be only a trifle more than this year. Second Hour * Stocks moved irregularly in the late morning, a break in Maxwell “A" disturbing the general list. But a strong undertone was created by the j cheerful character of the business developments at home and the more constructive foreign dispatches. Stocks pn the London exchange have lately enjoyed general gains. The list remained fairly free from professional pressure, only individual stocks showing any signs of weakness. Noon Hour While American Can and other in- i dustrials were reactionary a number of individual issues maintained an upward tendency at the noon hour. > Mack Trucks made anew liigh on the movement at 84%. This issue is moving on the prospect of larger divi- j dends next year. Electric stocks were j from the standpoint of group j Jhength, while operations for khe i Tjtse were continued In a rather broad group of individual issues. Fourth Hour Reactionary tendencies were thrown aside in the fourth hour and stocks swung into a general renewal of the forward movement. Activity at rising prices spread into a number of fresh groups a.s the upward procession went ahead. Tires developed a strong tone j under the leadership of Kelly-Spring- j field, which reacted anew high on j the movement at 32 against last week's low of 25*4. Republic Iron and Steel headed the steels, reaching new high | ground above 50. in response to Chair-1 man Topping’s optimistic statement j regarding the company’s outlook. Twenty active industrial stocks on j Saturday averaged 92.60, up .47 per. cent. Twenty active rail* averaged 81.20, off .65 per cent.

A few hogs of the medium variety sold at generally steady prices, most others having sold at a nickel decline. Lights sold up from $6.65, though generally at $6.70 to $6.75, medium and mixed from $6.80 to $7 and heavyweights from $7 to $7.15. The bulk of sales was made between $6.70 and $6.90. Sows and pigs - held generally steady, sows selling down from $6 and pigs down from $6.25. Together with holdover, almost 90,000 hogs were received at the Chicago market, a fact that tended to depress local prices.

Duelling houses had blinds which were closed to keep out the hot sun. Blinds are disappearing except for ornamental purposes and today a first-class apartment house without awnings Qould scarcely find tenants. This has caused an increase in awning sales and made them a part of the equipment of many households. The iron frame, the canvas and other materials in awnings take 59 cents from every dollar ‘which theawning manufacturer receives, according to government figures. Thirteen cents goes for labor. Twentyeight cents is the share of profit and overhead Including taxes. When the awning makers get a 10 per cent wage raise it adds 1.3 cents to every dollar which the manufacturer must charge for his product. When his material goes up 10 per cent it adds 5.9 cents.

You don't need to pay verymuch attention to the drumsticks, and the rest of the turkey. Good breast, good turkey.”

NEW MINISTRY IN GERMANY LEANS TO MILITARISTS Dr, Albert Asks Mandate Enabling Him to Dissolve Reichstag, BY CARL I). GROAT United Press Stuff Correspondent. BERLIN, Nov. j|6.—General Von SeCckt, Germany’s unofficial dictator, still will be the power behind the government if Dr. Heinrich Albert, lates to try a hand at the helm of the floundering ship of state, succeeds in forming a cabinet. Von-Jeeckt’s power is growing. It is untrerstood President Ebert, before directing Dr. Albert to form a ministry, conferred with the general as to whether the former minister of the treasury in the Cuno cabinet would be acceptable. Dr. AlberJ, prior to entry of the United Stdtes into the war, was German fiscal agent there. It is understood he has agreed to accept the chancellorship only on condition fie shall have a mandate enabling him to dissolve the Reichstag at any time. If he should resort to this extreme, Dr. Albert would nominally remain head of the government, but actually the real power would revert to the military [lower and Von Seeckt. The press is luke-warm in greeting the proposed chancellor.
