Price snapped back Rhnrply practicnlly all through the . list in today's cloning stock market. I Matters were mnde decidedly uncem . fertnblc for the Miert Interests during the two hours, ns nil effort. te cut down I eutatanding commitment proved a Rig nal for vlgoreu upblddlng. The pro nounced reversal had its inception in the opening strength of the railroad share and equipment issue", but the movement steadily broadened ns the ses sion pregreKcd, reaching out te nil classes of the stocks. Most of the oils, meters and ether ennght In the late re re irtlen yesterday mada animated re re heuiiiln. Urltlh bend, particularly United Kingdom', ngnln featured the netlve and bread bend market, rising te 105Vi. n new high ficurp. Their streugth was associated with the further advance el exchange en Londen. Other foreign bends, especially French, Ttelgtau and Mexican Issues, were irregular. Among domestic isMics the Liberty group re acted slightly and Denver and Rie i ttrande canceled the greater part of yesterday s two -point gain. Pennsyl vania 4Hs, Chcnpenke nnd Ohie con vertibles nnd Atlantic Coast Line Ts ntee reacted. Strength was shown by Nuw Yerk Central debenture Os, Kan sas CItv Southern Cs nnd Central of Georgia en. While the week was replete with im portant nnd interesting happening ap plying both ns te the domestic end for eign situation, it is extremely doubtful whether the general performance of the market could be directly or Indirectly associated with any of tlue events. AN tneugii continuing te display an almost unmistakable upward tendency, the linger prints nnd trade marks of peel manipulation were tee obvious te he' overlooked by even a disinterested nnd Inexperienced layman. Thin fact does I net in any respect belittle the potency of the constructive movement, ns the preliminary stages uf every major mar- I ket swing is Invariably attended by 1 such n fnmilinr jockeying process. Nevertheless, the movement in the main body of stocks has apparently ' reached n junMiire wherein the question 'eclcnlly arises vs te whether the dem onstratiens, IndUVtmlly or collectively. In the various scleSted Issues have net ever discounted nny recovery in busi ness nnd industry thet Is Hkelv te occur I during the first hnlf of the current year, i Possibly It would be better te say the i i immediate future of the market or thei maintaining of the existing level of. i values or it possible higher level will ' depend very inrgely upon the position of the peels nnd ether speculative com-' binattens largely responsible for the' e'evating process. The easier money market condition unquestionably is a strong ally fur the speculative com binations, nnd every one rececnizes the relatively low leaning rate has supplied n powerful lever for peel operations. Tiiis, in a measure, from a market technique, is te some extent offset bv the conspicuous Innblllty te attract the 1 much desired outside following. Much I the same ns u steady diet of some par- j ticulnr prescribed feed finally becomes nauseating, likewise does the experi ence of holding the bag become irkyerr.? te peel members. In ether weri;, re one as yet has been successful,? ab te raise himself by his own dee; -:r.i- This does net mean te ir..p . ji de reliable signs suggest, the cer.-:r.v tive i.ieviment has ended, tut '? ; sitien Is approaching u herein J: l necessary for n partinl distribution a: least of the peel holdings before th forward swing can attain much gr-utT momentum.
